Trump Is All Hot Air As Gas Prices Continue To Fall

[Nostra]

What part of this chart shows that the Biden Administration is just starting to drill more because they want to win the election?

Since Feb 2021, it looks like the numbers are on a constant TREND up.

What has Tater done to increase oil production?

What has Tater done to increase oil production?

He fills up the reserve......

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

The price of regular gas is below $3 per gallon in many southern states, with the national average just a little higher, at $3.27 as of Monday, according to AAA. If your vehicle is compatible with E85, it’s just $2.69. And the price of regular gas is expected to keep falling through Thanksgiving.

All the while, the United States continues to break records for oil production and the strategic oil reserve is being refilled. Presidents don’t have direct control over the price of gas, but policies can affect the long-term price of oil, and President Joe Biden has proven to be a master oil trader.

And yet Donald Trump has campaigned on the idea that we need to “drill, baby, drill” to boost production, that Biden has emptied the strategic reserve, and that the United States is not energy independent. None of that is true. So what is a guy who strong-armed oil companies to pump a billion dollars into his campaign to do?

Panic.

Trump can see that jig is up for his false claims on energy. Gas prices now are down over a dollar from their 2022 peak and are lower than they were a decade ago. Consumer confidence appears to be rising. And increasing consumer spending shows that Americans feel more confident about their finances.

Since 2007, the price of gas has dipped below $2 only three times, usually in the middle of economic disasters. Amid the Great Recession in 2008, decreased demand dropped prices to $1.75. And Trump’s bungled response to the COVID-19 pandemic created another low point, dropping prices to $1.93 as demand crashed and supplies overflowed (The third time gas fell below $2 was for one month in 2016—under then-President Barack Obama—due to an oil surplus.)

I wouldn't bring this up at the debate if I were you donald.

What’s fundamentally idiotic about this is the fact that presidents have no control over the price of gasoline – or the price of anything else, for that matter.

That voters use the cost of things as a criterion to evaluate a president’s job performance is the epitome of voter ignorance and stupidity.

Of course not Mrs. Jones....presidents have NO say in what leases are available to work, or if pipelines are approved or rejected, or how much oil is in our emergency reserve, or if we buy from a country like, say, Russia to send them billions so they could afford to attack the Ukraine....
Of course Mrs. Jones....wrong as usual.

I can see where ignorance and stupidity would be your favorite words.

A known yearly variable that is not responsible for the wild swings.

Then by all means explain the wild swings

 

[sartre play]

'Well sure, they're drilling NOW because they want to win the election.

If Harris wins, right back to not drilling, not fracking, sky high gas prices.

Nervous yet?

You should be

Why are you Always ready to blame.?... Over the years gas prices have gone up or down
no matter who is President. Presidents have little impact on gas prices.

Such as?

Change in winter/summer formula. That is what was brought up and I commented on.

I have many times. I already did in this thread. Do you not read the replies?

Back up

Gas prices were much lower before the coronavirus. Same thing with the price of homes and the price of a home loan. This point is not debatable. We can debate other things, but not this one.

What might be debatable but probably really isn’t is the fact that under Biden two new war started in Ukraine and Palestine, which messed up the global economy. Under Trump we had a more peaceful world, and the supply routes were not as affected.

Yeah. The economy Trump inherited from Barack Obama, who spent 8 years fixing the economic disaster that was George W. Bush.

No new wars started under Biden. Ukraine was invaded by Russia in 2014, when they illegally occupied Crimea, which they still do.

I take it you're a Chamberlain appeaser that will gladly hand over a European nation to one of our enemies.

So noted.

And in case you haven't been around that long, the turmoil in the middleast has been going on for a couple thousand years.

The latest episode because the current Israeli Prime Minister actually funded Hamas, which encouraged, and led to an attack inside Israel. Which in turn, has led to the mass killings of over 40,000 Palestinian civilians, 19,000 of which have been children.

That's called a war crime. Not a war.

But I digress. The topic of this thread is the energy production and costs that Donald Trump is losing.

Oh, and our idiot president gave the money to Iran who in turn gave it to Hamas. When they attacked Israel they got what they deserved. You shouldn't think so much with your pelosi and take your head out of it instead.

Why didn't gas prices fall during the first three years of the mental impaired administration? Did Biden/Harris intentionally pick the pockets of middle class Americans and punish them for not going along with the green agenda?

 

[lafayette]

Brent and Crude down 3.3% alone today, both under $70 a barrel.

They have more of an impact than you think. It just matters who is looking for the billion dollar check from big oil.

Who our refiners buy from doesn't really change the price of oil or the level of our production.

We shut down production and bought our gas from Russia......remember? And then Russia used those billions to attack the Ukraine.

Thanks, Donald.

As if on cue, the stupid, ignorant voter.

Biden/Harris tapped the oil reserves to manipulate the fuel prices. Freaking fascists.
