Who is we? And who elected you

as “king of the assholes”?

If the answer is “anyone” I would maintain that ther is verifiable election fraud right fucking here.



You can never discuss the actual topic; it always has to be a rant about the messenger, instead of the substance of the issue. 


Be better.

They're not up 40%. And they were already headed up before he took over. It's called increased demand. I flew this week for the first time since January. There were 4 times as many people at the airport today compared to then. That's pretty representative of overall fuel demand. 


The president does not have a magic lever that drives oil prices. Take an Econ 101 class.

Well an 8year record jump and crude oil shortage driving up demand ( and we all know why it’s skyrocketed). Gas prices are quickly climbing under the new adminst

Economics drive oil prices in the present. A president's policies have an effect - but not driving daily price moves. Every new president gets credited or blamed for this within days of taking office and it's not based on any reality. Just based on whether you like the guy personally or not. Transportation is blowing up right now as the pandemic recedes. That's why oil prices started going up before Trump left and why they're still going up.

You are the expert on scared when it comes to hats.  Try not to curl up in a fetal position when someone disagrees with you today, okay little buddy.

They started going up after the election knowing what Biden was going to do to the energy sector.  Since the day he took office it has gone up over 25% and the other 15% was in december.  This president is crushing the energy sector and to be in denial of this shows you dont know what you are talking about.

You're right. All problems come back to partisan politics. It's all so simple.

Up about 20% thus far, which would be over 100% annualized. 


Just numbers

Spock said oil was up 40% since Biden took over.  That was not true.  BTW, 100% annualized?  That's funny.  On an annualized basis, the Buccaneers would win 64 games.

Weird no one brought up the Capitol police officer that died by a “black supremacist”.  Good thing it wasn’t an insurrection, which didn’t kill anyone.

Darn.  I thought when this thread got bumped that they finally declared Trump the winner.
