Oil Blows Past $100 Per Barrel - Experts Warning $200 Possible

[Delldude]

Back down to $83.

Oh no....

I don't remember thinking that when I paid Bidens higher gas prices.

You sound like a Biden applogist.

Its called being a realist. I dont shout at the rain. If OPEC cut exports under Trump and prices went up I wouldnt blame Trump i'd evaluate how he reacts. Did he need to release the SPR or not, etc. I wouldnt blame him for OPECs actions.

However, Trump here started an illegal war causing prices to go up. I am not supportive of either.

It doesn't matter what you think. What matters is Biden set the benchmark for high gas prices. What matters is the guy at the pump won't be seeing this now as not much more than a short term price bump.

 

[Zincwarrior]

This spike in prices is about what the average price was during the Biden years.

And Biden was a one term President.

Who his party, not him, decided he was.

Oil prices blow past $100 a few hours ago for the first time in years. Experts warning investors to expect all time highs.

Not what a weakening economy needs that’s for sure.

After adding more than $40 a barrel in a little more than five trading sessions, the nominal record for West Texas Intermediate futures—$145.29, set on July 3, 2008—no longer seems out of reach. And if the Strait of Hormuz remains a barrier to Middle Eastern barrels reaching the market for long, an inflation-adjusted all-time high around $215 a barrel might also be in sight.

Oil at $80 today. Once again, Leftwingers fall on their faces. How many times has this happened now where Trump was right and the leftwing 'experts' were wrong?

Prices were market driven back then. They are Trump policy driven now. One was unavoidable and just jerkoff material for you and the other is avoidable and illegal.

Your TDS is killing you.

It’s up 50%. The fact that it’s not up 100% is a win? What a cult!

You're the one in the Cult. It's a Cult that would allow radical foreign enemies to build nuclear devices that would destabilize the world because it might temporarily drive up oil prices. Your Cult has no brains and no balls.

I remember the voters decided that, the ones ticked off about inflation.

It's your extreme concern over the cult that's highly amusing.

But but but but but....

That's not what happened. Where was the primary and convention?

Biden Harris. One of the main drivers was inflation. Kind of like now.

Trump ended there nuclear treaty, then he bombed the suspected nuclear locations claiming they have bee crippled and now a few months later they are suddenly an immediate threat? Then why not get Congressional approval if it was a slam dunk issue? Its not. Its a made up reason so he didnt get approval.
