Trump’s Pick For Energy Secretary Will Infuriate ‘Green’ Left

A name has emerged to join the administration of President-elect Donald Trump and it is certain to have liberals pulling what is left of their hair out of their heads.

Democrats and some in the media have been livid with the president-elect’s picks for key spots in his administration, and this one should be more of the same as he has tapped campaign donor and fossil fuel executive Chris Wright to serve as energy secretary.

“I am thrilled to announce that Chris Wright will be joining my Administration as both United States Secretary of Energy, and Member of the newly formed Council of National Energy,” the president-elect said to supporters in an email on Saturday.

“Chris has been a leading technologist and entrepreneur in Energy. He has worked in Nuclear, Solar, Geothermal, and Oil and Gas. Most significantly, Chris was one of the pioneers who helped launch the American Shale Revolution that fueled American Energy Independence, and transformed the Global Energy Markets and Geopolitics,” he said.

“The Council of National Energy will consist of all Departments and Agencies involved in the permitting, production, generation, distribution, regulation, transportation, of ALL forms of American Energy.

This Council will oversee the path to U.S. ENERGY DOMINANCE by cutting red tape, enhancing private sector investments across all sectors of the Economy, and by focusing on INNOVATION over longstanding, but totally unnecessary, regulation,” the president-elect said.

“Chris Wright has known and worked for years with Doug Burgum, Council Chairman and Interior Secretary designate. This team will drive U.S. Energy Dominance, which will drive down Inflation, win the A.I. arms race with China (and others), and expand American Diplomatic Power to end Wars all across the World,” he said.

“As Secretary of Energy, Chris will be a key leader, driving innovation, cutting red tape, and ushering in a new ‘Golden Age of American Prosperity and Global Peace,’” he said.

American Petroleum Institute President Mike Sommers said that the pick’s experience in the energy sector “gives him an important perspective that will inform his leadership” of the Energy Department, The Associated Press reported.
