Left Says LNG will Raise Price in U.S. but Crash it Everywhere Else

According to an E&E News - Energywire article, U.S. natural gas exporters are bracing for a "global glut" in LNG. While the Trump administration champions LNG exports for "energy dominance," lefty analysts warn that diverting one-fifth of domestic production abroad could inflate American utility bills (a long-disproven canard). These analysts expect a temporary price lull in 2026, followed by a significant spike in 2027. On the one hand, analysts say the U.S. will flood the global market with LNG, and the world won't be able to "absorb" all of that energy, crashing prices. On the other hand, the same analysts say exporting "one-fifth" of our production will cause price spikes here at home. So, we'll crash the price for everyone else, but cause a price increase here? You see the contradiction.
