Liberals, until Trump took office, wanted high gas prices in order to reduce carbon emissions. That's why liberals opposed increased drilling and not building pipelines. Now, when prices temporarily spike due to the Iran conflict, they are hyper interested in gas prices and the harm it causes to the "working man."

I wish you and Biden would have been more concerned with inflation when the administration decided it would be a grand idea to inject 6.5T in new spending (much of it useless DEI and green New Deal spending) into the economy coming off 2020 COVID spending. It's not like anyone couldn't predict what would happen except, maybe, Paul Krugman.

Rs are going to take a beating in November. But, from my perspective, it's worth it to allow Trump to pursue his agenda with abandon. I'm willing to take this beating in order to allow Trump to be Trump by pursuing his agenda through the BBB and to FINALLY address the issues with Cuba, Venezuela and Iran. Mass deportations are ugly but necessary. i wouldn't want him to play it safe like Clinton after his first two years in order to keep his poll numbers up. If you try and please everyone you please no one.

Oh, and the Rs will lose this fall because of the natural sway of the electorate and due to Trump's relative unpopularity NOT because the public is in love with the Dems or their policies.

This question is for anyone: If oil companies really wanted to drill more here in America and could, how much really would it reduce gas prices? I mean 10 or 20 cents a gallon maybe? It’s not like it would go from 3 to 2 dollars a gallon in a short amount of time would it?

They’d do what they do sell it to others for more money!

I don't think the public loves the Dems or the GQPers , but I do think the public loves democracy and sees 1 ) Trump is demented 2 )Congressional GQPers have been afraid to cross Trump and his anti- Constitutional actions 3 ) and that they are worse off now economically than when they were under Biden.

And I hope Trump doesn't play it safe and continues his anti-democratic actions between now and November and his voter suppression/intimidation efforts are not successful, but it does look like he will be TACO man and run from Iran having accomplished jack squat.

I don’t think Americans give a flying shit about constitutional rights. A significant percentage of Americans might support “democracy.” Most Americans support denying rights to “them.”

Sherman’s March through the South was way too gentle and kind.

The Army of Georgia and the Army of the Tennessee should have burned Georgia and South Carolina to the effing ground and marched into Virginia and pillaged and burnt it down…….

Part of me is sympathetic to North Carolina…….burn it down.
