“Even though he’s entitled to his opinions, he’s not entitled to his own set of facts”
During a broadcast of Donald Trump’s speech at a “Get Out the Vote” rally in Rock Hill, South Carolina on Friday evening, Fox News host Neil Cavuto cut into the footage to point out inaccuracies in what was being said by the former president and 2024 Republican frontrunner.
Taking issue with Trump claiming credit for the market going up while, in the same breath, blaming Biden for inflated gas prices and whatever else, Cavuto said, “We’ll continue monitoring the president’s remarks and I mean no offense to him or some of you who might want to continue to hear him, but I did have to say that even though the former president is entitled to his opinions, he’s not entitled to his own set of facts.”
Good. I’m so sick of the wild bullshit like that this baboon makes up. Gas is around 2.80 where I live which seems quite cheap given that it was that price 20 years ago and everything else has gone up so much. Then, of course, there’s the fact a lot of people are super-confused about that presidents don’t set the price of gas.
Back in the day if you couldn’t nail the price of a gallon of milk you were an out of touch elite. Trump hasn’t bought gas himself in decades I’m sure. That’s the lesson people should take from this.
Finally I made it to the upper crust. I have no idea what a gallon of milk costs. Take that everyone making less than 40 a year.
Next milestone? Circular driveway.
Do I need to start with a regular driveway or can I just skip to a circular one?
I mean if you want to drive over your lawn to make your dreams come true, I’ll support you.
Honestly it probably going to have to be a lap around the whole house
It’s one gallon of milk, Michael. What could it cost, $10?
Does that mean I’m rich or just lactose intolerant?
Or vegan?
I bought milk yesterday and I couldn’t tell ya what it cost.
He started out with, what was it, 10 million dollars? I don’t think he’s ever bought gas in person. If you look at his business dealings, you start to wonder if he’s ever paid for anything in any transaction at any point in his life.
EDIT: Wait! I forgot about Stormy Daniels.
Way more than that https://apnews.com/article/0452d29cd2564eaf97605ab90acc3a67
Why buy gas when he makes his own every time he opens one of his orifices…?
It seems to be mostly one side of aisle that can’t grasp it. Always the same line of “gas was so much cheaper under trump…”
and I always reply with “well you should have seen the gas prices under clinton, you would be a massive fan!”.
It usually goes as well as you’d expect it to.
But if gas prices go down under a Dem, they’re killing jorbs and that’s bad. /j
Lower gas prices means less profit for their nepotistic buddies who own the fuel companies.
These are the folks who donate to their reelection PACs to keep them marketable to the population with ads.
These lost politicians don’t want to bite the hand that feeds because at the end of the day the population won’t support them based on ideals, they have to spew propaganda around and that shit is expensive.
I see ordinary people saying this. But where I live, a good chunk of jobs are connected to oil & gas, either directly or indirectly.
Well you can do the same thing the founders of the towns in your areas did when they formed those towns and move to where a fiscal living can be made based not on what the past looks like but what the proposed future looks like.
That industry is killing the planet and I’d be more than willing to sacrifice some corporate towns across the board to lessen the blow from our ecology collapsing completely.
“But Clinton was 30 years ago!”
“And it was low during the trumpet reign when there was a pandemic. So you do understand that different time periods affect prices.”
After all the maths for gallons to liters and euros to dollars and vice versa, gas where I live is about $8.50.
Jesus christ that’s a lot!
It’s not a coincidence that the strategic oil reserves are at a historic low.
Biden saw the supply chain issues from covid and played the oil reserve game pretty much perfectly. I think his experience was very beneficial in the transition out of covid.
