Gas Price Wars Are Back and More Incoherent Than Ever
The latest front in the GOP’s misinformation war exposes the chaotic nature of the country’s relationship with gasoline.
Gas prices in the United States are rising. “Since President Biden took office, average gas prices are up more than 50 cents a gallon,” Florida Senator Rick Scott proclaimed in a written statement last week.
So jim if i use your Logic (lack of it I ) I should think Scott is lying and ask him show me where this has never happened Before ? because he never said it hadn't happened?
tell me he is not suggesting like you ! that this is All Bidens fault (no historical context attached )
Just like inflation the port issues the rise in food and gas prices
all the experts tell us it's because of the opening of the economy covid in Asia disrupting the supply trains and increase in demand worldwide
But republicans suggest its all Bidens fault
I will be waiting for you to show me a republican who isn't Blaming Biden and tells his supporters the Truth on what actually happening
you can't because the suggestion is more powerful than the truth and a suggestion is hard to call a lie ... except for you that is

saying gas prices are increasing, and saying gas prices have never been at this level, are two different statements.
so because biden is president, we shouldn’t be commenting on the multiple challenges we are facing?
in 2008 the subprime mortgages crashed the economy. bush was president. everyone on the left said it was his fault, even though he obviously didn’t tell anyone to buy more house than they could afford, and it was bill
clinton and a republican congress who signed the law allowing banks to invest deep in things like fishy, mortgage-backed derivatives. but Bush was blamed by the entire left.
Right or wrong, the sitting potus tends to get credit/blame for what happens on his watch. as i said, no matter who was potus, oil
prices had to go up when global demand started increasing again. that’s not remotely his fault. but his anti-fossil fuel positions, as well as the belief that the middle east is less likely to stabilize with a weak-minded alzheimer’s patient as potus, will likely also lead to increases in oil.
i didn’t invent any of that. things have always been that way, and you don’t quarrel with it when it helps your side.
why would i be desperate? biden’s numbers are tanking, and i’m doing insane with the oil investments i msde. everything is good here.
you blatantly lied about what republicans are suggesting, and i kept calling you out in it. that’s not desperation, it’s sport.
we can’t know what oil prices would be if trump had won. what we know is that biden is potus, and oil
prices are soaring. people aren’t driving like we used to, so maybe that’s not a huge deal to many ( again, it’s hugely beneficial
to me). broad inflation that’s in the high single digits, will be noticed.
which is also not all his fault. both parties have been pumping so much cash into the economy, and inflation had been so low for so long, meaningful inflation was inevitable at some point. but it happened on his watch, and he’s also contributing to it with the massive spending he supports.
politics is a tough game. he’s a sitting president who is dealing with multiple challenges at the moment. and he’s a guy who won not because america likes his policies, but rather he won because we hated the previous potus personally. biden can no longer succeed just by saying “i’m not trump”, he’s standing on his own now, we see him clearly
for what he is, and people aren’t all
that thrilled about what they see.
