I love vague threats like “big problems” or “consequences”
Yeah! He might do a thing?!
Maybe bleat about it. Maybe start another fight somewhere. Maybe he will send out goons to the stations.
The retailers? Wouldn’t that be the gas stations? Is he targeting the small business / franchisee while giving the oil companies a free pass?
First rule of being a bully is always prey on the weak, not the strong.
The big oil companies already laughed in his face and told him ‘shut your stupid mouth or we’ll use our lobbyists to get you impeached’.
The gas stations make no money on gas. Gas just brings in customers for the delicious hotdogs.
Don’t forget the cigarettes and booze.
Gas prices cut. BOOM! Government subsidies given to oil companies to offset their loss. BOOM! End users pays for it all yet again.
and theres no money to pay for it, so it will, of course, be paid via another massive, crippling blow to our already exploding debt.
because debt doesnt matter under republicans.
and debt doesnt matter to trump because he’ll die before facing any of the consequences.
Sounds like communism to me.
The fine art of the deal. The subtle maneuvering behind the scenes, the long term strategic thinking, the focus on the good of the country, the deft handling of challenges along the way. See the master do his work.
What a fucking clown
Trump promised $2/gal on ‘day one’ of his presidency. So where the fuck is our $2/gal? Liar!
For Europeans, that’s around $0.52 per litle
In Canada, I remember prices like that around 1990 - I’m sure they will achieve that, as well as other prices from that era such as $0.50 hamburgers and $1 boxes of cereal
Which we can eat in our $90,000 houses.
I miss the the days I could fill my car with $20, but I probably still complained about the price
Or about a quarter of the current price.
So is he pro-free-market or not? Inquiring minds and all…
He’s pro-Trump, and will do whatever it takes for Trump to win bigly.
And THAT is what it’s all about… Lowering gas prices because he knows that if gas is still over $4 / gal in November, Republicans lose big…
But Gas prices aren’t coming down until the war he started is over, and even then, it may never come back to where it was…
He’s Pro Dumbass.
That’s interesting, so are his followers…
As if he would even understand the concept.
I’m confused why he cares about california, sounds like them threatening to not pay taxes could fuck his whole presidency
GOUGING The word is gouging. The number of times I see “gauging” used for this is too damn high!
It’s one of those words that I see misused all the time, like rouge (instead of rogue) and loose (instead of lose).
POTUS is a dunce.
I sometimes wonder if his stuff is being crafted like spam is crafted. Meaning all the idiotic spelling and grammar. I mean, all the random capitalization drives me nuts…
Sure, some of the reasons that spammers put in so many misspellings may be to try to get past spam filters, but that’s not the only reason.
One is to filter out the smart people, basically. Spammers and conservatives have a very key thing in common - they rely on having stupid people fall for their nonsense:

You don’t have to wonder, AOTUS admitted staffers write them. Not just dictation either, they write in his prose.
Rogue:
Rouge:
I suspect sometimes his typos are intentional.
He can turn around and say “I told you there’d be no gauging the gouging! Why didn’t you listen?”
No one likes a loose goose.
Yeah, cmon!
Gauging, is that how they say gouging in Yankee land, or is that a typo?
Neither. It’s a retarded president.
Calling him retarded seems offensive to the differently able.
He’s got soup brain.
I’d agree, but he could be both cognitively disabled and a fascist piece of shit at the same time.
Guessing it’s an auto-correct. Gauging is measuring/quantifying. Gouging was what they should have bee looking for.

So, they go out of business, monopolies buy them up, operated by price scalpers? Great plan… For evil Nazi scumbags
He’s buying in again before the price spikes. Lebanon still dooms any Iran deal.
I just need to subsidize demand, I swear bro just one more subsidy man
Sure, Trumpty dumpy.
