What I won't ever understand is why didn't Trump just renegotiate the original Iran Nuclear deal.
That was a deal Obama signed, and Obama once made fun of Trump to his face and he's never been able to get over it. You know, the same reason why Trump got so butthurt over not winning a Nobel Peace Prize.

(To be fair, Obama didn't deserve his Peace Prize either.)

I've got no problem with anyone who says that higher gas prices aren't a big deal... just as long as they had exactly the same opinion in 2022.

Saw those prices over 20 years ago, but it wasn't due to preventing the nutjob Islamic Republic from getting nukes. It was government policy and the global warming insanity.

Uh huh, and it still went down with a terrorist attack on US soil. Thanks for the history lesson. Yes I am aware how much it was.

No it didn't. Certainly not to 0.86. The national average gas price hasn't been that low since the 80s.

You started off your premise completely incorrect. You said it was 86 cents per gallon. It was almost twice that much.

History lesson.

Do you not understand that gas prices are only an issue for Republicans when a Democrat is in office and vice versa?


I'm heavily conservative. I'm more angry now because I expect terrible policies from democrats. When the people who claim to represent us screw us over it becomes pretty deflating and disenchanting.
