[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Breaking news: Biden is about to announce a US ban on Russian oil. https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/biden-russia-oil-ban-ukraine-watch-live-stream-today-2022-03-08/ This will further raise oil prices and the Right will criticize Biden even more, despite clamoring for a Russian oil ban. [/quote] I voted for Biden but he is digging his own grave.[/quote] In what way? [/quote] He needs to make a better case for why another far off war in a distant place should necessitate American incurring the sacrifices he is asking them to make in the near term and combine it with a cogent explanation of why such a sacrifice is necessary given that we had a bunch of oil and energy independence under Obama and Trump, along with lower gas prices. His challenge is that the risks of climate change and "fall of democracy" seem remote and attenuated(despite apocalyptic language), while the pain of inflation and gas prices are very imminent, very tangible, and very real.
