They argue that this linguistic choice is a deliberate attempt to sound populist while remaining grammatically incorrect. The segment also touches on Harris's habit of referring to Biden simply as "Joe," which they find demeaning to the office of the Vice President.

Critics argue that the "green jobs" sector is a form of social engineering designed to create a fake necessity for inefficient technologies like windmills.

He also argued that carbon controls favor biofuels, which could lead to the displacement of natural forests by 2065. Green dismissed the promise of "green jobs," asserting that government policy merely shifts jobs with a net loss to the economy.
