No, but the majority of the voting public now believe govt should be your provider.

Or you can acknowledge this as a major Trump f-up, like I do, while simultaneously knowing I’m never voting for a left wing, open borders, high tax, handout everything socialist.

Even his own government disagrees with him. The EIA expects diesel prices to remain elevated through the first half of next year.

Republicans are gonna get their asses handed to them in the midterms. Even extremists like Al-Sayed in MI will win because of Trump’s obsession with Iran.

I wasn't countering you, just adding context to how midterms won't solve this problem.

There’s nothing that can’t be blamed on Biden, Obama, immigrants, or brown people.

100 dollar oil doesn’t translate to 6 dollar diesel

The problem is distillates and a lot of that issue stems from the Ukraine war

Some of it certainly does. Make no mistake that the hormuz and now red sea issue is the vast majority of the cause.

The west coast cracks are not a result of Europe not having diesel. It is a result of East Asia not having oil.

The only people happy about this are the Trumpeteers who can’t see fault in anything a Trump does, the climate tree huggers who want high fuel prices to curb usage and of course, democrats who are salivating at the green light for taking over congress… and maybe even the White House.

no, we're rational adults. some of us always knew Trump is an idiot

the reason we're stuck with him is because of his teenage girl insults and the cult that ate them up. meanwhile, a great leader and conservative like Ron DeSantis gets dumb insults like "ronbots" and "Ron desanctimonious". Trump saw him as a threat and derailed him. He may never be president now, and what a loss that'd be for the country

MAGA is on life support. it sure as hell won't survive after Trump leaves office. All the Rs will abandon him when his term is up. Vance and Rubio will turn on him once election season heats up in 2028.

Big Oil is setting prices at all the non oil company owned gas stations?

Interesting…

Oh no, it's the consequences of their own actions

Big oil isn't setting prices. If they could the prices would always be this high.

That will drive up the cost of everything since we are an 18 wheeler transport country.


What if we saw the vast majority of long haul trucks being operated in the right lane only at 55 mph by autonomous driving systems. Slowing trucks to 55 does cut consumption significantly. They could operate 24/7. Put a man in the cab to fuel/load/unload.
Think how much more pleasant a road trip would be without aggressive truckers plugging all lanes passing each other.
