On the night before the 2020 Presidential election I took a picture of the pricing sign outside my local Mobil station.

The price for regular read $2.04

Fast forward 18 months or so and that same sign read $5.13

The Biden administration’s solution? Lurch toward mandating electric vehicles. Far be it from the left to waste a good crisis, particularly one of their own manufacture, off went the lefts war cry for electric, and ridicule of gas powered vehicles.

Realizing the incredible burden these massive hikes to fuel cost was putting on the American Middle Class, the Biden Administration immediately reversed its position on closing down oil pipelines….oh… ummm…

Realizing the incredible burden these massive hikes to fuel cost was putting on the American Middle Class, the Biden Administration immediately reopened federal land to fracking and other fossil fuel exploration and production…oh…ummm…

Realizing the incredible burden these massive hikes to fuel cost was putting on the American Middle Class, the Biden Administration immediately looked at the calendar and the polls and gas prices plummeted to the mid $3.00 range.

Further seeing Biden’s poll number sink like the Deepwater Horizon, the White House did it’s usual fake and pivot and demanded gas stations immediately slash prices to match the drop in oil prices, which were a result of his energy policies. What those policies in fact were, remain a bit “Murky”.

To further trot out the aging practices of the democrats, he went on to blame the oil companies for making billions of dollars while Americans suffered.

Really Joe?

That will be the talking point for the next few weeks, with it eventually becoming “Trumps billionaire friends” at the oil companies being responsible.

Not myopic Green New Deal policies designed to pander to his base.

In the end, the left will be cheering Joe’s victory at slashing gas prices for the average American, conveniently forgetting they were about 40% lower when he took office, and we as a nation were a net exporter of oil.
