I am sure liberal households are hurting too - no question about it and not trying to minimize it. BUT, statistically, who is more likely to be driving electrical or fuel-efficient vehicles right now instead of big, gas-guzzling trucks covered in "I love Trump" stickers? Who is more likely to have solar or wind or be part of the green power distribution program? Who is more likely to have more energy efficient home upgrades? Yup.
So, while everyone will get hit with the gas crisis, the MAGAts will get hit harder. Just like they got hit harder by COVID in the long run and like they are getting hit harder by the Medicare/Medicaid/Food stamps cuts. And all they can blame is their own idiocy.
Just filled up in Central Oregon. $4.50 regular, $5.50 diesel. At least I have a hybrid. Have to go down to California soon and can't believe I will be paying easily over $6/gallon. This is total FUBAR! My head is numb.
My prius eats oil as well! So started using transit before crazy idiots bombed Iran. Gas & oil replenishment for old prius is bigly down. So rumpass can go stuff it because he & his wealthy friends will not get richer off those "really low" (please, consumers are not as STUPID AS YOU THINK) gas prices via my wallet! Snark, snark.
We're retired and don't drive that much. I doubt we fill it with gas more than once a month. Public transit is questionable in this very red city in a very red town. (I'm in Coward Hawley's district).
And the Lord looked upon the filling stations and saw the children of the Syndicate weeping into their empty wallets. He asked, 'Why is the price of a gallon more than the price of a soul in this administration?' And the Red-Hat Pharisees replied, 'Lord, it is a Beautiful Price. A Tremendous Sacrifice for a war we didn't authorize to hide the files we stole.'
Woe unto the 'War Pigs' who dine on the fatted calf while the Human Firewall pays $5.00 a gallon to keep the lights on. You promised the Land of Milk and Honey, but you delivered a desert of $114 oil and cognitive collapse. You cannot pray for the troops on Sunday and feed them into a meat grinder on Monday. Your 'Thoughts and Prayers' are an abomination when your hands are busy looting the Treasury. The Golden Calf is slurring his way to a gas-pump reckoning, and the bill is finally due.
God thank you! The Epstein Files are NEVER EVER going away. Just think if some former POTUS had promised to release the Epstein Files before 2016. Things would have been a lot different! Oh wait Epstein was still alive back then. Well even if they had been released when Epstein died. It would have prevented us getting "the man" in the White House again! Second Terms are really tough but you know I hope this one is especially tough for the clown in charge! And his co-conspirators!
Congress had the ability to put a stop to this war. They voted not to reign Trump in. They are complicit! All if them need to be voted out of Congress. Including Democrats who voted for additional ICE funding. They all need to go. Trump is suffering from dementia. One of the main symptoms is paranoia. Do we really want a paranoid narcissist running our country? What could possibly go wrong (as I warm my hands on the dumpster fire that started as soon as Trump took office).
Where I live experts are preparing us to accept the fact that we will spend over $8 a gallon by the end of the year. Thanks to Trump and his playmates we now have an even worse supreme leader in Iran. Investments are tanking. Jobs are drying up. Food prices are still increasing. American citizens are sitting in Stephen Miller's concentration camps because DHS/ICE didn't like the color of their skin. If you know someone who is eligible to vote this November and prefers to be a spectator citizen and let the privilege that Trump wants gone to go to waste, please guilt them into voting. IOW: "So, you like these sky-high gas and food prices? You like that we are now more a target for real domestic terrorism than ever before? You like that we just play pin the tail on the donkey and strike whatever country Trump and his equally deadly-stupid cabinet want to attack next? You like the fact that America has concentration camps? You also like that the country is bleeding taxpayer money to make Trump feel better about being stupid, fat and balding and to keep our minds off the Epstein files? He's a misogynist and very probably a pedophile and that's okay with you?" You can use that on the MAGATs in your orbit as well. Seriously, guilt has its place. This is one of them!
Mary, I firmly believe if you are NOT ranting over Trump you are either a MAGAt-for-life or you are a Statan worshiper. Wait....come to think of it, they're the same thing, aren't they?
Some folks on Spoutible (best Xitter alternative) are posting memes of 'Is he dead yet?' But quick death now would be terrible. The entire MAGA movement must be discredited and hated. Skeezy Donald must be hated as the archvillain he's proven to be. Trump must face real justice on Earth. Everyone MAGAdjacent must carry his stink, including Vichy Republicans in Congress. Then and only then God can smite his ruin.
When it's time for Donald Trump to go to Hell, and he's standing on the precipice over the Lake of Eternal Fire -- can I call dibs on pushing Trump over the edge?
When you live rurally- no choice but to buy gas, 23 min to local High School, 45min away to opt half day prog. @ other school, 30min to wk for me, for now.. walking/biking not an option living off dangerous Hwy in the mtns. Ugh.Btw- thank you GOD for much needed snow!, we are in serious trouble here foothills of CO.. 1 year to go then hope to move..🤞🏼
Thanks. Sorry no- gig work. My main position is scenic artist non profit theatre- which i love. Summers i often do greenhouse work, & deck staining. *3 degrees, this is life- middle age, its ok.

Where I live, gasoline prices are up 80 cents from where they were 10 days ago.
Thanks, Donald Trump!
/venomous_snarkasm
Snarkasm! My new favorite word!
I use shades of snarkasm.
There is plain, old generic "snarkasm", followed by:
/sneering_snarkasm
/scathing_snarkasm
/scalding_snarkasm
/acid_snarkasm
/caustic_snarkasm
/venomous_snarkasm
and the ultimate: /poisonous_snarkasm (rarely used)
About the same here in SW MO.
Gosh -- there's just so much WINNING!
Trump is making America GRATE again!

If it means that MAGA is gone forever, I will gladly pay more for gas.
I am just looking forward to all of the weight I'm gonna lose after I start walking every-fucking-where.
I'm starting to think about a trike with a large basket on the back to go shopping. And we own a Prius. 🙄🤬🤦♂️🙇♂️

It's truly bizarre that the death of an imbecilic, z-list reality tv show host is going to be one of the greatest moments in the history of humanity.

Release the Epstein files. Prosecute everyone that needs it. Throw the disgusting lot in jail. They can take their chances there

I suggest each of your followers go in and search for Epstein files to drive that trend back up! I’m doing it now.
Just did, and I'll try to remember to search more often!

And ESPECIALLY the Democrat-In-Name-Only, the Appeaser JOHN FETTERMAN!
It's going to be interesting to see how much he balloons the nat'l debt with his wars, all to distract us from the Trump-Epstein Files.
Not that I'm looking forward to living in this form of 'interesting'.

Dear God:
When it's time for Donald Trump to go to Hell, and he's standing on the precipice over the Lake of Eternal Fire -- can I call dibs on pushing Trump over the edge?
You are such a pushover!

Wow, that sucks. Can you return to Covid standards and do remote school/work?
Thanks. Sorry no- gig work. My main position is scenic artist non profit theatre- which i love. Summers i often do greenhouse work, & deck staining. *3 degrees, this is life- middle age, its ok.
Great comebacks to the idiots posting to support this mayhem!
Remember those Biden "I did that" stickers on gas pumps?
Pepperidge farm remembers.
I think we need a bunch of Trump "I did that" stickers now!
