PRESIDENT TRUMP – “With Memorial Day Weekend coming up, tomorrow people start driving in the biggest automobile days of the year. I’m sorry to say the gasoline prices that you will be confronted with are far higher than they were just a short number of months ago where we had gasoline under $2 a gallon. Remember as you’re watching the meter tick, and your dollars pile up, how great of a job Donald Trump did as President.
Soon Russia and the Middle East will be making a fortune on oil, and you will be saying how good it was to have me as your President. Wasn’t it great to be energy independent, but we are energy independent no more. Shame, shame, shame. Other than that, have a great Memorial Day Weekend!” (LINK)
Ah, the good ol’ days. 2020, my how time flies. ….
That is the greatest smirk of all time.
No it isn’t. 😉
Link ?
I have a feeling you and I were focused on O’s pic….
Trump is the ultimate troll. He’s brilliant at it.
he has redefined the term.
it looks like trolling.
but actually, TRUMP is a truth tellors with a backbone of stainless steel
there is no politically correct nonsense…none.
raw, unedited, salt free direct voice
one of the many reasons why he is both enigmatic and hugely popular.
AND WILDLY SUCCESSFUL.
Americans identify with Trump because we have all been in situations that were championed with gear results by taking the steer by the horns and beating weakness into submission.
it’s part of what makes Americans so successful.
it’s becoming a powerful effective winner.
I admire that about PRESIDENT TRUMP more than any other…
he inspires me to take the challenge and win.
leadership…true leadership.
is it any wonder how he managed to collect and recruit so many SUCCESSFUL winners over the years…and the huge number of adversaries?
I love the Man.
God Bless America.
God Bless PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP.
BRAVO, Regtiger! The man came into the Hell Hole (otherwise called The White House}, owning 552 businesses, over the years, and the one-cell brains of the world have banded together to take him down. WHY? Because he was succfessful in life and they weren’t.
Every day we get assaulted with some other new group targeting him. Today it is the Corporate CEO’s , who are using the decimation of all Small Businesses to try to increase their own power they think was snatched from them by President Trump. In their heads, they see themselves and their equally wealthy cohorts as their servants, and how dare we think we should thrive on THEIR Globe? I used to admire them, thoght they must be really savvy to be able to build their corporations to such success.
Now I see them as HUGE hungry parasites, working around the clock to regain the power they once thought they had before the entrance of President Donald J. Trump. I LOVE The Man. He cares about ALL people.
Fringe, want to “like” but it is at 45 Likes and just can’t do it so posting my like for your comment. STILL my President!
And the thousands of oil industry workers who voted Democrat because their grandfather was a democrat, or only rich people vote Republican, or they’re black and black people must vote Democrat..
America is (was) a democracy, and you own this.
Or they voted Democrat because their union leaders endorsed Biden and they are obedient little union members.
They deserve everything they get.
Do I deserve what I get, too? I didn’t vote for any Dims.
You didn’t have to.
Joe and his “voter fraud organization” ( his words ) took care of it.
You’re welcome.
You took the words right out of my mouth to repeat a phrase from a song of Meatloaf. Its true though. I can never bring myself to blame democrats because I’m not sure they voted for him either. If blame must fall it goes to those in big business, media, and of course social media. Just to be inclusive that includes a lot of our voted representatives.
Exactly. I suspect there were more people whose grandfathers were UNION Democrat faithful … who voted FOR PDJT … than those who voted for Biden-Heiress
It’s just that voting didn’t matter this time around. The Dem’s multi-FRAUD saw to that
It’s not just the Dems. We have been played!! The career politicians and bureaucrats are a Uniparty running federal government!! They are traitors!!! Democrats and Republicans together are both guilty. There will never be another fair election unless this is fixed!!
Guilty until proven innocent. EVERY voting district should stand by their voting integrity and support audits by independent methods. Without trustworthy voting, we do not have a Republic by and for the people. Damn those that have criminalized our voting systems.
I think it is a matter of degree. If a Repug casts a vote with the Dimwits 12 times a year and casts 200 votes a year against the Dimwits, how is that the moral equivalent of Dimwits casting a vote 1 time a year with the Repugs and 211 votes against the Repugs in that same year ? (I am dismissing the hundreds of votes that both Parties approve in unison voice votes for naming Gubmint buildings and other crap that is not beneficial to anybody but the political class. Probably that number should be higher than mere hundreds.) I think your Uniparty logic is applicable only to the few Repugs who consistently vote for Dimwit nonsense.
We will all pay for the crimes that were committed in November.
We are collateral damage Big Jake.
who cares…. this election was clearly stolen. Union workers, rich, poor, white, black….. Trump won regardless of the bantering.
Hopefully at least some of them-bite me & cabala circus open eyes…..before return of VSG/ESG PDJT…..
Wait until these communist go after the coal mining industry which will be sooner than expected.
Might be time for another Battle of Blair Mountain.
Yes, those gullible idiots would vote for -devil- if is marked as “D” and we all know lots them even after 6 yrs of M A G A!!!!!
Should anyone ask about your private medical history while you’re pumping ga$, may I suggest this response… ?
Or you could pretend you have multiple personalities and start arguing with yourselves over whether or not you got vaccinated.
Love it.
I might try “I’m not sure”, and see what happens.
Like normal.
I like, “Since when did my medical data become your business? Did I ask you why you got vaccinated?”
How many times did you have to go over that before you could say it without laughing?
I would have responded with the line that Elaine used on Seinfeld,
“Maybe the dingo ate your baby!”
That would have shut this lady up and had her running away. Just like the scene in Seinfeld.
Can’t wait to use it now.
My favorite?
“Didn’t I tell you?”
“Then I guess it wasn’t any of your business”
Or ask, when was their last pap smear? Proctologist’s exam? Let them think about it for a while.
Oh! So going to steal that.
Thank you ?
I did a few days ago. Was in the local supermarket. A Karen wearing a mask asked me if l was vaccinated. I said. “If you tell me that you had a recent pap smear, then I’ll answer your question. ” She began screaming for the store manager.
Prostate exam.
You win the Internet award! Brvao…..mind if I borrow that?
When I was asked the same question by a stranger, I immediately said, “I sure did. I got two shots – one smallpox and one polio so now I’m fully vaccinated. Have a great day. “
You should have asked her if she has ever had an abortion.
Rabies and distemper.
Tomorrow here in NJ mask manadate is lifted for those who are Vax. My response will be well I am not wearing a mask am I . Nothing more to respond……
Actually, NJ lifted everything except for certain settings like K-12 schools, doctors offices, transportation.. They said that masks are “strongly encouraged” for the UNvaccinated, but are no longer mandated for anybody.
There will be no bothering people or harassing people, or segregation of normal people. No demanding to see their papers like a Nazi.
New York is of course a gulag by comparison. They will harass the unvaccinated, demand their papers and segregate. I guess that vaccinated people no longer care if they spread the virus to others. After all, their masks would protect everyone else, right? That’s the way I heard it./s
And she gets to vote.
How about. . .
“I am vaccinated against being a mindless and offensive little busy-body who should be minding their own business, and it would appear that you have not been vaccinated for this insidious condition yet.”
Should have said…..”I’ll tell you, if you tell me about your most recent breast exam and Pap smear, and have you ever had a STD…deal”?
Someone remind Paul Ryan about this during the Q&A after he speaks at the Reagan library tonight.
No one cares.
How come they dare to let him in….he is against of everything what pres.Reagan in 8 yrsdid it include relationship with – non commies Russia- shame on them and I say it as his supporter through his presidency & library…..
If you don’t like high gas prices you ain’t black.
No one making under $400,000 per year is going to have to pay a single penny for gas.
But their driver will.
He’ll be pulling the rickshaw.
Read my lips: No new gas taxes!
Yet…
Correct. The Blue State Governors are salivating to sign those new bills….
You need a bumper sticker for that one!
O’biden’s identity politics.
ROTFL
I wanted to post Chris Rock’s old “Gas prices are so high” routines he used under Bush so he could be green and recycle them. But kinda R rated so I’ll let people go to Youtube if interested if seeing if the hypocrisy party remembers that Bush, Carter, Obama and Bribed-en made us broke in gas lines while Trump economy was roaring for all.
Sundance, here’s the rub. The indoctrination and brainwashing of the sheeple is so complete that you will find that many don’t mind the price increases. They think they are saving the planet.
which is essentially the false premise of carbon tax.
it doesn’t do anything about controlling environmental pollution.
it’s simply a means for big oil to corner out small oil companies and consolidate power… figuratively and literally.
it’s the same thing now with crypto… china isn’t banning crypto because of the power quota…ccp just doesn’t want competition…
same with the elite buying up ag…it’s not about becoming farmers…it’s about restricting future growth such that their investments in large ag will go sky high.
climate change agenda was never about saving the planet from 15o degree days and biblical floods and super cyclones.
it’s about consolidating economic power.
It’s about taxing you from outside of your paycheck. If taxes show up on your paycheck, you blame government. If government embeds the cost in your purchases, they did not raise your taxes.
That way the rich can say we are paying all the taxes! Look at your tax rate compared to ours!
Remember the Lying Kenyan said “we can’t drill our way to lower gas prices.”
I will be praising JoeBama all the way to KY tomorrow/s
I think I recall you’re moving to KY? Godspeed and lucky you!
Nope, not moving, I just go there about 7 times a year.
Gas prices were lower last year than now, but look at this 5 yr trend
https://charts.gasbuddy.com/ch.gaschart?Country=Canada&Crude=f&Period=60&Areas=USA Average,Dallas,LosAngeles&Unit=US $/G
Let’s do the math:
Avg US family 2 cars.
At 12k miles per vehicle/ year
At estimated 20 mpg
That’s avg consumption of 600 gals/vehicle per year
2 car family 1200 gallons/year
1200 X $1.83= $2196/yr more in gas ($183/month).
Obviously this is a BIG after-tax expense increase pfor many and is not included in recent inflationary numbers. (90%+ increase).
Increasing gas prices also increases the price of every bite of food, not to mention every other item, transported by truck.
Yes, they like that feature too.
Deep in the last century, there was the concept that infinite progressions could be summed, at least in useable approximation.
But that was prior to unionization bringing in those equipted with thirty credits of education theory reinforcing their three credits of calculus appreciation.
It took a full century for teacher unions to change our public education from the world’s envy to its laughing stock.
The decline is so pronounced that standardized tests of academic achievement had to be rescaled, Erasing decades of comparability, because the results kept sliding to the left.
Zeno would be proud.
Petroleum is used in a lot of other products, 6000 or so, that we use every day. It’s not just gas for the car. Everything from house paint, plastics, rubber, glass, clothing, cosmetics, furniture.. it all goes up too.
who wants to bet the Republicans go along just enough to pass this?
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is urging the US government to continue spending on various new programs. “[W]e cannot continue to be good stewards of this recovery – and tackle the new bodies of work that Congress assigns to us in the years beyond – with a budget that was designed for 2010,” Yellen stated. Members of the Federal Reserve have previously warned the government not to use low rates as an excuse to increase spending. Washington posted a deficit in 2020 of $3.1 trillion and has already reached a deficit of $1.9 trillion during the fiscal year of 2021. President Biden is set to propose a new budget to the tune of $6 trillion that will be largely funded by tax payers.
I don’t think Zimbabwe was this profligate.
Actually it was 2021!
The sick part of this is that the left has indoctrinated many to think of this as a GOOD thing. Higher prices = Less ‘global warming’ or whatever gobbledygook they cook up. The fact that inflation leads to people dying won’t occur to many till it’s too late.
I hope people will speak up & write about the effects inflation is having on vulnerable populations Dimocrats say they care about. A message worth relaying is the War on Retirement being waged. This should hit home for everyone seeking a few leisurely retirement years before death:
https://www.aier.org/article/the-war-on-retirement/
Yeah, and wait until their pool boy and the their gardener can’t make it because of gas costs.
Those workers will make it, just pass along the costs. In my experience, Dimocrats wealthy enough to have pool boys & gardeners can afford the increased prices passed along and don’t GAS about those that can’t afford the burden of “caring about the planet”, but many do care about retirement.
The forgotten man. The original forgotten man was about the person hurt when government uses your money to help others. We tend to focus on the people government is helping, and not on the person hurt when government took the money to accomplish its task. Calvin Coolidge was famous for this argument. Roosevelt corrupted this idea, turning the forgotten man into the guy government had to help.
This would actually make a GREAT STICKY NOTE CAMPAIGN for the long weekend.
TRUMP WON.
WE ALL KNOW IT.
They go on the gas pumps everywhere!
Yeah … let’s do it.
Billboards too.
The diesel price is the real kicker … that is what overland transport, trucks and trains, use to deliver items to store shelves and distribution centers.
Then there is JP 8 Jet fuel costs that are not shown. Airlines were doing massive renegotiation of fuel costs becuase they were so much lower than exiting contract costs.
Of course lets not forget the super low costs of Marine Fuels used by cargo ships and oil tankers.
Do you remember when diesel was LESS than gas, and people were trying to buy cars with diesel engines? Funny how THAT changed.
During the Trump Administration my commie coworkers occasionally complained about Pres. Trump, always complained about State of Arizona Republican politicians.
I haven’t heard one word about how wonderful Xiden is…..nor about the rising gas prices, rising food prices etc
Interesting isn’t it. Yet he “beat” Blowbama who they did actually weirdly love by millions of votes.
I can’t find any support for him either.
His actual loss was so epic.
His electoral loss was a pretty sizable blowout loss but I wonder if the raw numbers were also embarrassing.
We don’t have a real handle on how much the ballot stuffing of black cities and illegals is yet which we need prosecuted as the civil rights violations and fraud they are. Hence the attempts to surround black cities with arsonist shock troops so people will be afraid to ask who is stuffing the votes of the trapped slaves.
I mean Hildebeast, with cheating, didn’t even beat Trump with white women. HILARIOUS……..did you see how mad they were at white women after they didn’t follow orders. LOL…. So how BAAAAAD was her REAL loss with white men. You know? There is NO such thing as a white man who voted Hildebeast while his wife and daughters wouldn’t either. And Hispanic and black men have even less soys, still a culture of machismo “allowed” so her true numbers NO WAY equalled the “popular vote” which was only run up in historically corrupt ballot stuffing blue areas.
Yet Bribed-en didn’t even have a little feminist enthusiasm or anything. When they let him emerge like a blinking, blind hairless, dying mole from his cave nobody ever showed up.
I think Obama lost but cheated FL (which Bush and De Santis to their credit stopped for W. and Trump) and other blue cities like the ballot stuffers of Philly and Chi-raq.
I think Hillary had an embarrassing loss that wasn’t nearly as bad as Geraldine Ferraro but was quite pathetic too.
She did not campaign and had to hold free concerts with food with Jay Z and Beyonce and EVEN THEN the people STREAMED OUT the minute it was time for her to speak. Meanwhile Trump on his own was filling stadiums.
And I’m wondering if Bribed-en cleared even 10 or 11 states with unenthusiastic voters muttering er, uh “blue no matter who.”
?
Missed President Trump. You cannot unseen the evilness of Pedo fake admin
Doncha know that the price increase of gas is Trump’s fault???
Someone actually said that to me last week.
~Still asking for special dispensation from my Lord for silent thoughts. ???
Ask them to explain how. That usually gets them. If it doesn’t, then calmly say that Biden closed the pipelines everywhere but Russia.
Conversation is unfortunately pointless. Literally; and in more than one way.
~The useful idiots lead the useless ones.
Your response should have been, “Well, you just failed an intelligence test.”
Economics test, common sense test, the list goes on and on.
I saw Joebama and read the quote and thought he was lying and taking credit for Trump’s successes again or just lost his mind. Then saw it was Trumpius Magnus tellin it like it is.
Wait til the rallies. This will be quite the applause line.
Chris Rock made a career talking about the horrors of Bush gas prices. Google wipes that stuff clean when they realize it will bite them in the butt so I suggest someone collect all Rock’s old routines on gas prices from Youtube and the appearance on Bill Maher where he would only answer every question with “All I know is these GAS prices SHO is high” over and over the entire segment before the FB Lie and Google internet scrapers try to memory hole that since it helped Bush lose the midterms.
Collect them and load them on Rumble.
We shouldn’t be concerned just as long as the US Army can afford enough gas to travel around America putting down Freedom of Assembly … … I mean … …putting down Trump inspired insurrections.
I miss the real president, and a real press secretary.
Oh, and BTW, Joe Biden just took that cognitive ability test that Trump got 25 out of 25 on, and Joe Biden got 45 out of 25 on it.
LOL. He’s on a roll.
Oh wait! I’m sorry. That was an IQ test that Biden got 45 on.
….even stealing President Trump’s number “45”.
There for a minute I thought Biden had found a way to use Dominion to score his cognitive ability test.
Everything IS going well …for the DemoCommieFascist agenda…… destroy America
Jen Psaki has really bad B.O.
Jill Biden is still a skank, too.
Can someone help me out on some questions?
What exactly caused the price of gas to increase so much so fast?
Is it related to supply on hand factoring in anticipated changes in drilling/production?
Who is making the money on the price increase?
I know little to nothing about the economics of the situation but it seems like we shouldn’t have seen the level of increase in such a short amount of time. I might assume that the futures market has something to do with it but would appreciate gaining knowledge on the issues.
“futures market”
Yes, I think a lot of it is based on what is seen as coming.
I am the smallest of potatoes.
But on the micro level the sale price of high turnover inventory is tied to the anticipated cost of it’s replacement.
Inventory profits go to the owner of the inventory.
The futures market is seeing the increased demand as world-wide population is breaking out of ‘lock-down fever’ and vaccination freedom to travel. Combined with increased war on fossil fuel by the largest economy in the world (USA). Pipeline shutdowns, new energy policies that are anti-growth. Generally, the futures market looks at reality now to predict the near future. Political BS doesn’t cut it. Supply and demand rules. Corn, Copper, Soybean Oil, Lumber all have huge increases…….check out the charts.
Bigsky51: The coming of JoeBama let loose all sorts of “activist forces”that now have their daggers out for anything to do with fossil fuel. The oil industry is increasingy under seige by politicians, on-the-take global diplomats (pushing various multi-country energy infrastructure projects that undercut American energy independence), environmentalists, courts, institutional investors, billionaire “masters of the universe,” electric car worshippers, alternative energy accolytes, non-profits, shake-down artists, grifters, etc.
All the forces of activism signaled trouble ahead, thus pushing up prices in the futures market that offcoursenation refers to, below.
Increased fast because of fear of future prices and shortages, which lead to some speculation in futures markets. Recent supply disruptions in Texas and the recent shutdown of the East Coast pipeline exacerbated the fear. Who is making money depends on what happens in the future. In the end, no one wins unless Trump comes back.
Thank you all for the responses.
If you shut down the economy and people are working from home, gas consumption and prices will drop. When you open the economy back up, prices will naturally rise.
Gas prices were still significantly higher during most of Obama’s presidency. Also, if we’re going to be fair, any comparison between the prices under Biden and the prices under President Trump should not include 2020 due to the effect the pandemic had on prices.
They shot way up starting almost literally the day Biden was interrogated.
I think I meant to say inaugurated. But he should have been interrogated instead.
Assuming the fat lady will not have already sung, IF there is an actual election in 2022 conservatives will control the house.
Can we get a two-for-one on impeachment and have the House Speaker become the executive?
Conviction and removal from office takes 2/3 in the senate.
Of course.
People in Wyoming need to be on high alert. Ms Cheney thinks she will win as part of the real Republicans taking back their party. The fix is still in.
Lmao even if the gop takes back the congress, dont expect any action. Did you see what happened the first two years of President Trumps term? The repubs won’t do anything. The dems, they’ll say they’re gonna go after you and they’ll follow through and then some. They won’t stop until they’ve either killed their target or drove it to “suicide.” Don’t expect any impeachment proceedings for Xiden. They’re all part of the same club.
During the REAL president Trumps term, gas prices stayed pretty consistent, even during the times when fluctuation was expected, the prices stayed pretty much the same.
Yes, they were real good times.
Yeah… and remember that this was due to HIS ACTIONS. OPEC and Russia tried to create some kind of gas shortage and Trump stepped in to stop their manipulating AND took action to make us energy independent.
A former Trump official said that he then told them he was going further.
His goal was to make us go from “energy independent” (first time in history) to ENERGY DOMINANT
OK… the ONLY president who EVER worked FOR US in all areas. Reagan’s up there, but for winning Cold War and stuff. Trump is the first who was fully populist, for the people AND companies at the same time. He knew win-win was doable and proved it while Bribed-en is paid to destroy us for Chiana and the 1%
Credit where due.
Clinton had multiple budgetary surpluses.
Bush had other ideas.
Clinton had the Cold War Dividend and Newt.
And then we had that privileged line jumper, who served America the way bulls serve cows.
Clinton was dragged kicking and screaming to balanced budgets by a Republican congress.
Energy dependence….
next up…..inflation….
thanks joe.
It’s over 4% already.
Hyper inflation and the crushing of the dollar and all your savings.
Congress., but you’ll be a trillionaire, Zimbabwe style.
Read on fb that President Trump is calling Biden “JoeBama” and was sent here to see.
Thanks, I won the bet it was not in actual quote, just in the headline! ?
Trump should also use the words “Uniparty” and “Decepticons” to get people questioning.
I would love to see him, or Don Jr., post here.
Democrats will never admit they were sodomized…Never….
“Remember as you’re watching the meter tick, and your dollars pile up, how great of a job Donald Trump did as President.”
The point Pres. Trump is making is certainly valid but there is a way to make it that shows some humility. Telling everyone how great you are gets annoying after awhile. Also, referring to yourself in the third person is weird. Is he channeling Bob Dole now?
I didn’t realize how weird it was until the other day when President Trump referred to himself in the third person multiple times in the same statement.
Charles Robinson, the free state governor of the territory of Kansas, wrote his autobiography in the third person. It takes some getting used to.
Gas prices at the deep discount chains in Oregon are up 45% since whatzisnam moved into the White House.
Here in Texas, I paid $1.59 per gallon last year. I’m paying $2.59 now. That’s 63%.
Hit the nail right on the head, as usual. We love and miss you, PDJT!
I’m afraid that Biden’s reign of terror will be worse than Carter and Obama combined. They want us all to pay for thinking that they’re supposed to work for us and voting accordingly.
Oh, they are going to make it hurt as much as possible before 2022 comes around.
Not the first n elected.
Here in N.CA … the TYPICAL price at the pump is $4.29/gal.
If you recall … the price of gas just before the 2009 Real Estate crash was $5.00/gal. here in N.CA In my layman’s economic opinion … the price of gasoline which affected the price of everything else … PLUS “fuel surcharges” … caused the economic collapse of the Real Estate market. When BASIC goods and services are priced beyond affordability … bad things happen.
Sadly, the Leftist elites are immune from such things as their massive government or high tech salaries insulate them from the REAL world.
We are hustling toward another Uuuuge economic crash. Just wait.
I just drove from Atlanta Ga to Fresno CA and paid about $37 to fill my tank until I hit California. My first tank in Ca cost $64. OUCH!
And our roads are shit. Did you notice that change at the border too?
That’s how leftist greenie ideology can slap you upside the head. I’ll bet Fresno looks nice this time of year. I love to see the Sierra-Nevada range in the distance.
This was last week:
Courage is contagious
Recently someone posted a viral video of a black guy at a gas station yelling about the failures of Biden.
On my way to Sam’s to get gas, I thought of what I was going to do. After being on line for about 15 minutes, I pulled up to the pump, got out, and in a loud voice said:
“I sure do miss $1.79 gas that we had for the last 4 years! We had peace in the Middle East. We had record low unemployment across all categories! We had a great economy. I sure do miss a President who tweets the truth! We let them steal an election. Now we have Biden who has a mushroom for a brain!” I kept repeating variations of that as my car filled up. (Cost of gas with discount: $2.73)
People were looking at me. No one agreed or disagreed. I got over feeling like I was making an ass out of myself. It was liberating. When I pulled out I yelled “ Trump won by a lot! Biden cheated!”
It felt great! I know I could’ve added so much more but oh well!
Obama had gas at $ 4.35 ,,, Trump .99 cents a gallon and Biden raising fast , soon 7 dollars a gallon… But don’t worry about that… The dollar will soon bust and government checks will stop and riots will start again and food will not make it to the people like toilet paper lat year during the BIDEN RIOTS that over through our country… America is soon finnished and many will die
This country would be way better off it there really was an “insurrection” on Jan. 6th and those great Americans had taken the U.S. Capitol back for the American people. Just think, we could be governing now WITHOUT Pelosi and Shumer and OAC and the rest of the socialist communists in D.C.
There was NOT an “insurrection” on Jan. 6th. and the media continue to lie about it. They are going to say that because of this they should take away your guns.
The problem is that everywhere there is rampant crime THERE ARE NO LEGALIZED WEAPONS !! GO FIGURE !!!!!
