All they know is that CNN said fuel prices are high and muh orange man bad, fully ignoring 2-3 years of the highest fuel prices we've ever seen in decades during a certain regime. But hey it wasn't his fault. So they said " the President has no control over fuel prices " is what I heard droning on for almost 3 years. But now, it's different I guess.
It's cute that you don't understand the difference between Biden era gas prices and what's happening today. Tell me more about this math witchcraft you speak of.

So let’s get this straight: you’re arguing that high fuel prices under Biden were bad, but because he got a pass in your estimation (he didn’t…..he was pushed out of the presidency mainly due to widespread frustration with the economy, but whatever), Trump should also get a pass? Biden did stupid things so Trump should get a turn? About sum it up? Man, that’s some airtight logic right there. You should try out for the masterdebater team.

How many times do people need to chant “Death to America” before you believe them?

Amazing how that wasn’t a threat of public concern in election 2024. In fact, it was no more new wars and isolationism.

I can’t believe we are at a point where gas will go 150+ and oil shortages throughout the world, US debt out of control, more spent on dumb defense crap, less on the people inside our own country, and the APC defense for all that is…

What is different? Both are like Grandpa Simpson, falling asleep, saying dumb things, unhealthy with a bunch of people saying they are at the top of their game, never sharper. Maybe we need to stop electing 80 year old nursing home patients.

So has there been an economic impact since the Iran war started?

Its because these people dont have critical thoughts. They identify solely with a political party. Its part of their daily endorphine self esteem buzz. They are not american per say, They are not critical of both sides. They are partisan. And that lack of self esteem is being extorted for money and power on both sides.
