    Nonsense! He can just push the “Lower Gas Prices” button that Biden refused to push for his entire term! It really is that simple, folks.

    Reads like it’s saying “he can’t lower gas prices. What do you expect him to do, stop the war? That’s absurd”

    I doubt he really gives a shit if gas is costing consumers $10 a gallon. He’s more focused on stealing the election so he doesn’t have to deal with the wrath of voters. He’s way more focused on that as compared to making anything affordable for anyone.

      Gas prices are one of the key indicators of economic activity he sort of skims before napping during briefings… Actually scratch that, he doesn’t pay attention to any others reply

      He’s already getting antsy. He’s been asking the generals what’s taking so long and getting annoyed at the worm tongues that convinced him to get into this mess

      Trump lives in a bubble of sycophants who present the narcissistic alternate reality he lives in. He has no idea what’s going on, but he’s clearly getting more and more upset

      He is presumably still going to blame the “radical left” and the Biden economy. Everyone will know its complete bullshtit except for his idiot supporters who will eat it up.
