Don’t worry we can just build gasoline powered electrical power plants to make up the shortfall

It's just like every other Progressive agenda idea, initially it sounds great until you ask a follow up question, then the whole thing falls apart.

They want the ideal immediately, they don't comprehend the foundation that needs to be laid to achieve that ideal. And that goes for *all* their "progressive" ideas.

Yeah, it took three years for Jesus to do His Message and He was the Foundation on top of being God in the Flesh. Very few things are 'instant' including the events that happen in the Bible. For example take the Exodus out of Egypt. According to common theory that was roughly two and a half million people which is way. . .WAY more than what was shown in The Ten Commandments movie. Then from the Pharaoh's side of things getting his military together to try and stop the Hebrews from leaving. Not going to do that with a hundred or so soldiers.

Turning down the thermostat on an AC, will make it run longer,

A/C has to run during the day: also, heating and cooling are usually the most energy-intensive tasks. EVs can charge outside of peak hours.

Oh that's right....everyone MIST charge their car between the hours of 1pm-6m when the daily temps are the greatest. Your logic has failed you.

EVERY AC being on far outways the CHARGE DRAW of every charger.

In most places in America, air conditioning is not needed year-round, however cars are needed every day of the year even in really cold places. And btw, electric car heaters are crap. So who's flunking logic now?

If everyone had an ev the power grid could not handle it, it can't handle it now.. -> A voluntary alert advising Californians to conserve energy during a specific time frame was issued in mid-June 2021 to “help balance supply and demand” on the power grid during an extreme heatwave in the region. Unplugging electric vehicles during peak usage times was one recommended measure included in a list of power-saving strategies issued by the California System Operator.
