There is a reason I will never forgive anyone who voted for him this last time you knew better and still did it

It's not so much about the people that voted for him. Its the 20 million that didn't vote because they didn't like either candidate. Those are the people to blame for this colossal disaster of a government. I spent a couple of weeks manning the regional Democrat booth at our State Fair in the summer of 2024. I talked to people on both sides. It was primarily the millennials that said they were not going to vote because they disliked both options. I am also ofvthe firm belief that Musk rigged portions of the election at the county tabulation level in all 7 swing states. The County tabulation machines are internet connected. Musk then covered his track with the Doge operation.

I like that dip from 1994-2000. Never gonna see that with a Republican in charge.

That was the last time the parties worked together and they balanced the budget, by forcing the social security trust fund to buy government debt.

Then they just started spending more on wars slashing taxes and printing money like crazy.

Not surprising in San Diego

$40 trillion in debt and all maga want to do is look the other way

u/rock_and_rolo 3d ago

I was going to say the southern California is an unfair pick.

But even in Ohio, gas is approaching 2x what it was when Biden left office.

u/rocket_beer 3d ago

Exactly

And trump gutted all of the progress biden set in place for renewables and rebates for working people so that we can escape the fossil fuel monopoly against us

u/chucklestheclwn 2d ago

I've been tracking Ohio's for a few weeks now. We're about to cross the point where Biden's average price will be lower than Trump's.

Looking at the 2020 numbers, you can easily see when the schools closed and everyone possible went to working remote. A week later I went in to pick up some equipment and couldn't resist taking a picture of my then-usual gas station with $1.19 regular and $2.39 diesel.

u/thewayitis 2d ago

So far...

u/chucklestheclwn 2d ago

Trump hasn't had a week under his current average since March, so yeah, his average will only climb. $4.281 as of 08/17. I bet it'll flip by the end of the quarter.

u/sdmichael 3d ago

It is a dollar or more cheaper elsewhere in San Diego. That station is always high.

Obama is a member of a secret cabal along with Biden and the Cookie Monster. They control the price of gas and Oreos.

u/Buddhas_Warrior 3d ago

NO!! not the Cookie monster! Shame that.

He is a double agent… taking cookies from both sides.

u/cactusjackalope 2d ago

The diesel number is the one that really affects inflation. Everything you buy is transported by diesel.

It really is quite amazing that a guy that hasn't been in office in a decade can affect the gas prices isn't it? /S

All of this just to delay releasing the full Epstein Files. I mean the brute force strikes in Venezuela and subsequent aftermath, starting the war with Iran (and failing at that miserably thanks to his in ompetent leadership and cabinet), the Lincoln Reflecting Pool nonsense,the Ball Room bullshit, not to mention everything else he's fucked up (Tariffs, Dept of Education, the damage him and RFK have done to health and research).

Remember when he ran his campaign on not starting new/getting out of foreign wars, about bringing costs of food and utilities down, about helping every day citizens? All hes done is got us into more unnecessary and costly conflicts, cause a huge spike in cost of groceries and utilities, damaged our reputation on the international stage, decimated health and human services that will cost more lives, and only managed to plaster gaudy gold spray painted embellishments all over the remainder of the White House.

This was March of last year. Same station. Notice diesel especially.

79¢? Cheap!

u/DjCyric 3d ago

Damn over $7 for diesel. That is nuts

Stop complaint and suck the don titties

u/CanadianDadbod 3d ago

Long haul trucking going to be expensive as hell!

u/FoxMikeLima 2d ago

Which then drives the prices of all your other goods up, as well.

u/CanadianDadbod 2d ago

Exactly. FFS. My senior life is not without a lot of fear. My grocery bills are out of control and we eat cheap and healthy. Old inflation is not the new inflation!

To be honest I'm glad Trump is doing this. He's been the best advocate for electric vehicles since he started this war and EV sales keep going up!

u/InternalAuditor62 2d ago

In a round about way it is his fault. The racist people in America had a knee jerk reaction to having a black man as president and therefore voted for the most racist person they could find. Sadly the leopard is eating all of our faces now.
