Donald Trump said Thursday that gasoline prices are “not very high.”
A Quinnipiac University national poll of registered voters showed that 65% of U.S. voters blame Trump either “a lot” or “some” for the rise in gas prices seen since the beginning of the Iran war.
Trump said those prices are not as high as what was expected from the war, which he said was aimed at denying Iran the ability to produce a nuclear weapon.
That didn’t happen.
And if it did, it wasn’t that bad. <----
And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
And if it is, that’s not my fault.
And if it was, I didn’t mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.Rich people don’t know the price of anything.
I mean its one gallon of gas, what could it cost, $10?
Maybe in parts of Europe
Yeah, but that’s in euro-dollars, or whatever you call them over there. Who even knows how much that is in real dollars? (I honestly wish I could claim /s on this, but this is literally how most Americans would see it)
He wouldn’t care if he did. He just says what he wants to be true and gets away with it.
I seem to recall him claiming that he would get gas under $2/gallon. Where are we at on that?
Gas prices aren’t my primary concern. I’ve hated him for years for better reasons, but gas prices seems to be the only thing that is waking his supporters up.
It’s the only thing a large portion of the population pays attention to or care about.
Its hilarious to me that so many people put so much stock in fuel prices, and think The President is solely responsible for them. Fuel prices are actually crazy complicated and The President generally has very little control over them (unlike in this case).
Honestly I prefer the fuel prices to be higher to persuade the population to make better choices. I understand some bear that pain more than others.
The older I get, the more I agree with Calvin’s dad. Adjusted for inflation, he wished gas was about $20 per gallon. Let’s fucking do it.
I’m glad you said “in this case”. You had me worried there, for a minute!
Man eff that.
Gas prices are high.
Real man of the people.
“The morons” -ftfy
This man thought a banana cost $10, and didn’t go to a grocery store until after he was president.
There’s always money in the banana stand
He didn’t actually say a banana was $10 did he?
Gas prices are lower now than they have – been before
