Democrats have been losing their minds over a temporary spike in gas prices.
As Energy Secretary Chris Wright explained, the prices would come down once the question of the Strait of Hormuz was dealt with. Indeed, the price of oil has already gone down since spiking up. But Democrats are still ranting.
It's pretty astonishing that Democrats who didn't give a darn about high prices under Joe Biden because of bad policies now are throwing a fit. And absolutely the last person who should be weighing in is California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who runs the state that has the highest gas prices, and not because of any military actions to take out terrorists, but because of their high state taxes and regulations.
Now that's truly funny. If they had developed any "tools," why haven't they employed them? Why do they have the highest prices in the nation? He wants to attack Trump, but he should look in the mirror.
When Interior Secretary Doug Burgum was asked about Newsom's comments, he dismantled them.

The United States Gas and Oil Association joined in.
Go ahead and grab some of this while you're there, Newsom ... to help with the burn.
Being a committed leftist...and a functional brain donor...Newscum is oblivious to rejoinders.
ReplyDeleteNewsom is also allergic to common sense and ethics.
DeleteWho on the Lord's Green Earth would possibly want Newsom's brain?

LOL.
DeleteA Republican in the state legislature is attempting to suspend California's gas tax, the Cap and "Invest" fee (previously known as Cap and Trade) and the Low Carbon Fuel Standard fee. Combined, their cost adds $1.09 to the price of fuel ($1.17 for diesel) here in Gavin's Utopia. As soon as I saw the proposed legislation was authored by a Republican, I knew it was doomed. Because Gavin's political party, that has ruled the state for over 20 years, never did squat to lower gasoline prices when they hit six bucks during the Covid thingy.
ReplyDeleteCalifornia sucks. Bigly.
But don't worry, Karl. I'm too old to move to Florida.
BTW, Diesel near my Podunk Sierra Foothills town is currently going for $6.79 at an ARCO station. That would be $200 to fill up your Cummins powered Dodge Ram, thanks to DJT. LOL.
Well, Elmo, I don't exactly know how to respond.
DeleteIn the first part of your comment you admitted that Republicans were trying to lower gas prices in California and because the Damnocrats overruled it.
In the last part of your comment, you blame DJT for high diesel prices ... WTF? That has to be sarcasm, right? Right?
My wife is from SoCal. I've been there quite a few times. It is a beautiful place with beautiful weather. DEMOCRAT policies are what is destroying the livability and beauty of California.
If you can vote to preserve conservatism and common sense, you're welcome to move to Florida. If you're a Democrat and want to vote for what's happening in California ... I'm glad you're too old to move.
Yes, it was sarcasm. That's why the 'LOL' was added.
DeleteGavin blames Trump for his state's ridiculous gas prices??? LOL.
Gotcha. My apologies.
DeleteI was pretty sure, but when using written comments, emotions and meanings can be misunderstood easily.
