Trump should stick to what he knows, a stupid hair dew, real estate & filing for bankruptcy !
People are not going to take him seriously and the only thing he's going to do is help Obama get re elected.

LETS GO BRANDON

Salty is correct...it is NOT photoshopped. The picture is the Exxon at the Watergate (an exclusive and VERY expensive condo complex where incidentally the Nixon breakins occurred). It is the highest station in DC and despite news media they refuse to change their price. In fact, the station was upset yesterday because they were having a hard time setting the pumps above 5.00 (apprently they are limited at that price). The price at the end of the day for super was $5.19 at that station. Across the street the BP was almost $.50 cheaper...

Exxon probably makes the guy pay $24k a month in rent....they're friggin CROOKS like that.

A few years ago the Shell guy in downtown Milford told Shell to stick their rent and closed his station. I hear they wanted to go to 14k/month rent. Gotta believe THAT hurt Shell...the place has been boarded up since. It was a very popular station.

With gas prices soaring no one is blaming Obama, when President Bush was in office they blamed him for the high gas prices. Since the day Obama took office prices have risen more then two bucks, since his presidency oil drilling has dropped 13%

I usually never stop at any gas station closest to the airport, however, the one at Dulles had the cheepest prices around

the lukoil's on the GSO also had the cheepest gas in the damn state of NJ, lines where 8-10 cars.

by spending i think that includes giving money away
as if it's free.... because the influence it buys seems
to me isn't worth it.... as it's miss used....

Canada is switching over to new currency made out of plastic.
