This is definitely not what we voted for


No conservative or pro business person would ever vote for substantially higher energy costs or tariffs. It is counter to fundamental and core beliefs of both.

If you don't like tariffs or project epic fury why don't you just leave? I support president Trump protecting our businesses with tariffs and preventing Iran from getting a nuke

Us boomers dealt with wartime rations and planted victory gardens to save our greatest ally and millenials complain about spending a few cents on gas to save theirs

So, you supported everything about Biden and Obama because you never left? That is a comically bad take and you cannot possibly believe that logic yourself.

Not enjoying the price of everything going up doesn't make someone a democrat.

Trump is not a conservative. He is a populist.

You do realize the average American drives over 12k miles a year?

So almost triple your $383 claim and you get right to where sane people in this thread have said, they are paying over 1k more this year in case based off where it is right now.

Are we going to start seeing Trump "I did that" stickers on gas pumps?

You can be a Republican and still be honest enough to recognize that an incumbent Republican president has broken his campaign promises and made poor decisions that are negatively impacting your life.

It's a $1,176 a year increase, and that's just for my vehicle.


What do you drive?

Curious how many complaining about gas prices are using a 7k lb vehicle to haul their 250 lb arse around.

Gas at Sam's in Tucker, GA was $3.73 about two hours ago.

But hey, maybe we could give Iran some of our nuclear weapons and get the price down to under $2.

I’m gonna miss Kemp after this term. Whatever you think of him, you can’t deny that he firmly believes in giving taxes back to taxpayers whenever possible.



Like that time last year when he sent eerybody who filed a return $500 without any regard whatsoever as to what anyone paid in? frick Kemp. Just because the dog don't shite in the floor everyday don't make him a good dog....
