Former NFL reporter Michele Tafoya acknowledged how “frustrating” and “hard” rising gas prices are for consumers during a Wednesday radio interview, but she suggested Americans should minimize some of their spending to support President Trump’s actions in the Middle East.

      Disclaimer: I hate coffee, so don’t come at me. Just leaning into a narrative because fuck some people.
