[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gas prices high in 2022 because of Putin. Gas prices high in 2026 because of Trump. Gonna be a great campaign message this Fall.[/quote]

Why does the reason matter in your assessment of what you believe is cataclysmic. Gas is either higher than ever, or it isn’t. Don’t make me go back 4 years and quote rationalizations from people here.

Inflation is also down significantly vs. four years ago.

What am I missing? You’re better off than you were four years ago.[/quote]

Context is important.

Putin invaded Ukraine, gas prices when up. How is that Biden's fault?
Biden inherited a dumpster fire economy because of how Trump handled Covid. Inflation was a global phenomenon and Biden handled it better than most of the world.

Trump raised tariffs. Inflation went up. That is Trump's fault.
Trump waged war with Iran, gas prices went up. That is Trump's fault.

See the difference?[/quote]
+1

Biden inflation - outside factors
Trump inflation - self inflicted[/quote]

Do the different factors feel differently to your wallet?[/quote]

What kind of a question is that? People are explaining the cause of suffering as people always do. In the first situation, Biden was managing a situation created by others and therefore helping Americans. In the second situation, Trump is watching the fallout of a situation created by HIM. Trump is hurting Americans. It is pretty simple.[/quote]

People blamed Biden for high prices when the cause was external factors

Trump campaigned on making prices low. Then Trump turned around and deliberately created a situation which made factors worse. In addition overall electricity prices are higher than ever including under Biden.

People will appropriately place blame on Trump vote accordingly. Why would anyone vote for Republicans who have no interest in helping regular US citizens with affordability? Whose administration has made our economy worse? [/quote]
