Also, while EVs do take a lot of power, it’s less than an average amarican air conditioner. We rolled those out to most american homes in just twenty years.

Exactly. California and Texas were struggling to keep up before EVs (probably because of AC actually). There is no reason they can't upgrade their infrastructure to compensate.
