Did you finally figure out your basic economics re: causes of oil price increases, or are you still sticking with your thin 'its all because of democrats and illegals' (paraphrase) comments you put out there?
You seem amazingly unable to address that. Yet more than ready to tirade about others personally.
Profile in courage, I guess. Cool cool.
Illegals need to be removed and Democrats are h3ll bound to pave the Road to h3ll as fast as they can without regard for you or myself.
That being said, I lay these high fuel prices directly at the feet of the Trump Administration. He has pussyfooted around with these thugs and they do not give a crap what he says. His actions do not match his words so they blow him off. He refuses to do what is necessary and therefore they continue their rogue ways.
I think it’s laughable he wants to attack Z over diesel. Z has every right to destroy anything in Russia and Trump isn’t eating Russian missiles on a weekly basis. So, trying to tell him what he can and cannotdo to Russia is laughable. Z isn’t the problem here.
Unlike the Progressive loons who claimed Biden had zero to do with inflation and high fuel prices I am a realist and can see through the malaise. Until Trump decides to turn out the lights and seize Karg island and put them in desperation mode This is where we are at. Must be fun trying to reason with malicious lying thugs.
Might make Right 101
Almost no person (progressives included) claims that the Biden policies re: the economy in Covid were non inflationary.
I’m impressed at the depth and vigor of the strawman there.
SEE: RedwingTommy
Funny, I seem to remember RWT admitting that one or more of the Biden policies were inflationary in nature. His angle is that Trumps contributed greatly as well, perhaps more.
I really hate to tell you that asserting that Trumps contribution was more than Biden is NOT “Biden had ZERO to with inflation (that is the spike in and around COVID)”.
But that kind of ruins your rhetorical complaint. Bummer.
And even if true, your one example still doesn’t counter the issue that your complaint only fits a very small proportion. Again, that kind of upends your rhetorically empty complaint.

RE: AAA - Gas Hits $4
If the price of gas eventually eclipses the all-time U.S. national average high of $5.02 per gallon (set in June 2022) ...
... Bill Dazzle shall strip naked, paint in fire engine red "Thanks, Don" on his cream-white man belly (shaved at this point, of course), douse himself in regular unleaded gas and light a match to his "pump nozzle" so as to defiantly leave this Earth in a blaze of glory.

Yes, of course, the 3rd stimulus bill signed by Biden contributed to post-Covid inflation. Never claimed otherwise.

RE: AAA - Gas Hits $4
“12 months from January 20th… your gasoline for your car is going to be 50% cheaper,” trump declared at a speech to the Detroit Economic Club on October 10, 2024. “That’s a big thing.”
On January 20, 2025, the day trump took office for a second term, the average price for a gallon of gas was $3.12. Had Trump kept his pledge, gas would now cost about $1.57 per gallon.
Today's prices pre AAA:
Gas - $4.48 (Highest on 9/21 in American history, $.81 higher than 2022)
Diesel - $6.51 (Highest in American history)
DUMBEST. PRESIDENT. EVER.

If they didnt want to update them under Biden*, where the prices were permanently high, why would they spend the money to under Trump when they know they will go right back down?

Well, I knew this was impossible. Did you? The sad part is a lot of his idiot base believed that he had any chance of accomplishing this regardless of outside forces. Not to mention, this latest "vacuum" is really one of his own making.

I'll add "permanently" to the list of things you don't know the definition of. Like posit, spell-check, and word find.
Gas prices peaked at $5.02 in June of 22, but had dropped to $3.68 by this date in 2022, and were $3.12 when Biden left office in January 2025. Also, 2026 will most likely be the highest yearly average for gas AND diesel in US history...barring a major decline the next 3.5 months.
Muh permanently.
