Were you also telling posters when Biden was President to “stop buying lottery tickets” or to “stop buying large double whip fraps for $13”

california shut down refineries. ukraine is blowing up russian diesel refineries and storage. american refineries are selling more overseas than internally because they get more money from them thus driving our costs up due to supply issues. Trump didnt cause any of this, he has been trying to fix it but the globalists and liberals are fighting tooth and nail....

My husband drives us around too. When we lived in BR, I always drove though because I knew BR better than him.

He drives like a maw maw so it’s safer for everyone if he drives.

I just paid my first $7 per gallon tank of diesel in northern Arizona (Ok $6.99 in reality). I can easily afford that. It doesn't mean that I have to like it or ignore what it is doing to the cost of goods and services, however. Two things can be true at once.

Theres a different between being openly and intentionally hostile towards the oil industry, and what Trump is doing.

You know who doesn’t complain about gas prices? Real American h1b Indians



They like higher gas prices because they can steal more from you when they put a screw in the gas pump so it doesn’t shut off when you replace the nozzle

Yeah, when you’re openly hostile towards oil, you’re at least investing in alternatives.

Trump shite on the alternatives and then shite on the oil supply chain. Good leadership.

Right now Diesel is $5.90/gal in Texas and about 70¢ higher nationally. This threatens to accelerate inflation and product shortages for consumers. That's real, not fake outrage. There's an affordability crisis in America. End the tariffs and the war now.

Again Biden did this via policy while giving Iran cash to develop nukes.

Ill argue with you for the sake of arguing.

What Trump is doing is hurting everyone else far more than us and hes laying a foundation for decreased global dependence on a narrow geographical feature controlled by people who hate us. Iran isnt going to recover from this any time soon, the US is exporting more petro than ever, and we have Venezuela in our pocket now instead of China's.

If you look past the price you are paying at the pump, theres a good bit of America first happening here.

Of course high diesel prices are horrible for the economy. The alternative fuels incentives were nothing more than corporate welfare and a frick you to the oil majors. Egg prices are back down. Why dont we talk about that? Theres a lot of good going on if you zoom out further than the price on the gas pump.

What does it matter what I spend my money on? Pretty pathetic to be a grown arse man and worry about how others choose to spend their money if it isn't impacting you.


Stay strong patriot, all of your predictions about Trump and Iran will come true eventually.

You were not crying about gas being $9 thats for sure

Because it wasn’t $9. That’s a lie and a cope for you. Just like mortgage rates weren’t 9% either.
