admittedly, gas prices are up as a DIRECT result of the current president. The last president's high prices was 90% coincidence and a fun thing to poke at. This is 100% Trump's baby. (The baby's name is Israel btw)


how convenient.

California and other major areas would suck someone’s dick for $3.30/gal. It’s closer to $5-6 there.

These prices aren't as high as it was a few years ago. I'm sure we'll be fine once the dust settles. Quit being a puss

mean, the critique against gas prices currently is majorly coming from hyper partisans that now feel the President has complete control over prices at the pump


You mean like the ones who put Biden stickers over all the gas pumps?

And in this case, yeah, high prices are due to a war the President is waging. Whether you consider that a necessary consequence or not is the debate. And they will revert once the war ends. But this was 100% self inflicted.

You realize this would be a never ending circular argument of who did it first, right? It's like you missed the entire point of the post.

I sure would love to know what he has done to give you the slightest bit of confidence in him.

If you could afford these prices under Biden 2 years ago you’ll be fine now. Plus inflation was way worse back then too on top of everything.
In 2024?

These threads are pathetic - There wasn't this much crying when Biden had gas at $5.02 a gallon in 2022.
Why are we always going back to 2022 (rhetorical, I know why)? It averaged $3.30 for 2024.

Talking to a guy who runs a logging operation this week. He spent 50k to fill up the tank at his equipment yard.

I mean Biden's policies raised gas prices. As does Trump's. That's just facts.
Weare paying high prices now because we decided to take out Iran.
