I am sure they will spare no fuel costs they will take the same cavalcade of planes, helicopters and limousines. The same as Trump when he travelled overseas. No different. I guess it must be part of the protocol whoever the POTUS is. I came. I saw. I Concorde.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79017631 When Trump took office, gas was averaging $1.70/gal. Right before the pandemic crashed the price, gas was just under $3/gal nationwide. Trump's policies had nearly doubled gas prices before the pandemic. Gas was only $1.70 because of his predecessor, so why did gas nearly double under Trump? You can't count the pandemic because that's not policy, it was a lucky godsend for Trump to claim credit. Gas would likely have hit $3.50/gal before Trump left office had the pandemic never hit. Don't believe me? Google a few different average US gas prices monthly of 2018. They all state the same within about a 3% difference. Actually, its not Trumps fault. OPEC agreed to cut oil output in 2016 and has a slow rolling effect... Give thanks to Obama... [link to www.greencarreports.com (secure)] [link to www.statista.com (secure)] They actually only cut from 37k barrels to 35k barrels a day on average for Trump's presidency, and to 30k in 2020. Thats a roughly 7% change giving rise to nearly 80% rise in gas prices. Trump was also in office for 4 years, he did nothing to stop it or alleviate the steady rise. He'd be remembered for his shit gas policies if not for the pandemic. Sitting by idly while Americans are price gouged...just at the current Republican party is ensuring. keep trying to rewrite recent history for the short term memory libtards. if you think "trump did nothing" regarding oil production, you need to get back on your TDS medication and do some research. what part of under $2 per gallon gas for nearly 3 years are you considering a "steady rise" exactly? we all literally just lived this. what do you think you lying about it a couple years later is going to accomplish? some of these comments are so ridiculously stupid i'm almost 100% sure you gotta be rage bots. Which is more likely: every graph that shows yearly averages of gas in the US is wrong, or you have a short memory? Because $2.80-$3.10/gal before the pandemic is a whole lot more than $2/gal as you claim without any proof. I can provide quite a few charts, but I'm not going a simple search for you. Can you provide any showing a $2 average until early 2019? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 76248687 United States 06/22/2022 01:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'll pay 4.75 instead of $5. Great job Joe! I'll save $4 on a 16 gallon tank! Yee haw I can almost afford a gallon of milk now! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81456562 No kidding. Milk here is about $4.50 for a half gallon carton. I’m not even saving enough for a half gallon of milk. Gas was averaging $2 a gallon during spring 2020. When everyone finally opened their businesses back up it jumped to $3 which is still a little high but reasonable. Then Biden shut down the American oil refineries and it’s now about $5.30 nationwide. Why would I praise Biden for him dropping it 25 cents when he made it skyrocket nearly $2.50 more per gallon than when Trump was president?? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77798626 United States 06/22/2022 01:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Too f#%ing bad it’s only .18-25 cents!!!! Quoting: Dr.TwoBall WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Wednesday will call on Congress to suspend federal gasoline and diesel taxes for three months — a move meant to ease financial pressures at the pump that also reveals the political toxicity of high gas prices in an election year. The Democratic president will also call on states to suspend their own gas taxes or provide similar relief, the White House said. At issue is the 18.4 cents-a-gallon federal tax on gas and the 24.4 cents-a-gallon federal tax on diesel fuel. If the gas savings were fully passed along to consumers, people would save roughly 3.6% at the pump when prices are averaging about $5 a gallon nationwide. [link to apnews.com (secure)] |

I'm pointing out lies glorifying a traitor. Trump didn't have shit to do with the gas being so low at the start of his presidency, and it rose the whole time he was in office until the pandemic. People stating otherwise can provide proof to refute me or shut the hell up with their propaganda. The facts are Democrats in the house and Senate have tried helping with the gas crisis. Even in individual states, Democrats are attempting to help with gas prices. In every instance, it is the Republican party preventing it. Just in my home state, Democrats tried suspending the gas tax. Republican response? They rose our gas tax by exactly 10% just last week. The current gas crisis is due to Republican refusal to do remotely ANYTHING regarding oil companies price gouging. Either they Americans, or they're being paid handsomely. Voting records are public, you can see which politicians are keeping this shit going, and you'll quickly find it's a Republican effort nationwide to sabotage gas prices at the detriment to Americans, all so they can win both ways being paid as a lobbyist and campaign on the "high Democrat gas prices" issue that they create. |
