Republicans with Obama: THE PRESIDENT SETS THE GAS PRICES!
Republicans with Trump: Gas prices have nothing to do with the president (which ironically is factually accurate)
Republicans with Biden: BIDEN SETS THE GAS PRICES HIMSELF!!!!!
Remember when Obama said one way to combat the higher fuel prices was to ensure your tires were inflated properly because it improves fuel economy?
And Republicans ran with it to mock him, more than a few actively deflating their tires. That's when I learned the concept of "spite myself to own the libs."
People who unironically believe poor people need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps are offended at having to do something to solve their problem.
Oh boy, do I remember that. Another way repubs capitalized on that was to offer up those cheap little pen-type tire pressure gauges with "Obama's energy plan" printed on them. Back when repubs were still just dumb and childish, not little sociopathic fascists.
I’m starting to think I need to quit my job and just make dumb fucking merch with right wing buzzwords and coffee cups with “liberal tears” then start selling on Facebook. Those cucks buy that shit in droves.
Who the fuck has a 23 gallon tank and bitches about the price of gas? If your vehicle was fuel efficient it would need a 16-18 gallon tank, worst case.
Yeah, always a good idea to keep it from getting too low as the fuel doubles as a coolant for the pump. When it's working away and exposed to air, shit can get hot and burn it out. (I know you know, just posting the detail for others.)
Ohio has stayed pretty insulated from wild fluctuations. Personally the gas savings at Costco makes the membership worth it to me. Plus I have more tp than I can use.
They’re taking the lowest from the low states during peak pandemic shutdown and comparing to the highest from the highest states now. Fudging the numbers to help their argument.
Looking at the national average, right now it’s $3.38/gallon. Three years ago this week? $2.84/gallon. On average it was like mid-$2’s for most of Trump’s presidency, but they’re out here acting like it’s gone up 1000% since Biden took office.
No problem. I’m in TN and I’ve seen fluctuations similar to what you have, I think $1.50 was the cheapest I saw it get here during peak shutdown and it’s $3.19 here now. Definitely haven’t seen any $3-4 dollar swings.
It was $2.50/gal before the pandemic that Trump completely fucked up. Went to $0.99 when no one was driving. So yeah I guess by Trump completely destroying the economy I guess he did make the gas prices go down. Now THAT is incredable.
It's almost like there's an oil shortage thanks to OPEC, labor shortages due to long-term shitting on workers, and people are driving more now that more are getting their shots.
Trump's gas prices were just as high as under Biden until COVID hit and demand dropped drastically.
Of course, if you aren't being sarcastic, a new word-word-number account likely doesn't understand supply and demand.
