[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why aren’t we celebrating lower gas prices? This is the issue we should be focusing on — isn’t that right, Republicans? [/quote]

It is all relative. 
We will start celebrating when prices drop to the place they were when Biden took office..... just over $2.00/gallon, I believe.  
Until then, prices haven't "dropped."  They are just off their record highs.  [/quote]
You want to go back to the place where no one drove or flew because people dropped like flies from a pandemic?  You do your thing, I’ll do mine. I felt pretty good filling up yesterday for my trip. [/quote]

The average price of gas during Trump's administration never reached $3.00.  
Under Biden, we will be lucky if it goes lower than $3.00.

Please define what precisely Trump did to keep the price low.[/quote]

It is not so much what he did.  It is what he didn't.  He didn't demonize the oil industry and promise to put them out of business like Biden did. 
Why would these groups want to invest in their industry when the divider-in-chief has vowed to make sure they will not be profitable?[/quote]

The oil industry has been and always will be profitable regardless of politic rhetoric about going green.

Try again.

I’ll give you a hint: pulling out of Afghanistan (which we had to do, and thank goodness Biden had the balls to do it) impacted the power we wielded in the region. While our relationship with Saudi Arabia has always been challenging, it was rapidly declining under trump and got even worse once Biden left Afghanistan. Then Putin went bananas and launched a war prompting sanctions that impact European oil.

The Saudis always have and always will control the oil game. Biden has struggled to appease those crazy bastards without luck. Who knows what the Saudis will do next. I’m sure they are playing a dangerous game with Putin, China, and the Middle East. They hold the cards.

Contrary to popular belief, Biden and America really don’t hold the power when it comes to oil and setting gas prices.
