Which party has been more destructive to the middle-class? Democrats or Republicans?

Eggs were too expensive

Can't make it up. and you want to be taken seriously!!!!! haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaha

 

[sealybobo]

then why did you lose 2024 ? Dude, there isn't a piece of logic there. And that defines you!

I believe in 2024 every incumbent in the world lost except 1 or 2. One lost only because Trump said he was going to make their country the 51st state. He was the conservative running in Canada. Trump meddled and it cost him the election remember that?

The opposition, like Trump, blamed them for inflation and the dumb voters fell for it. I asked a girl at the dog park why she was voting for trump. Her answer? "I just think he'll do better for the economy".

Well, he hasn't. Not even close. Do you believe the March job numbers? I don't.

178,000 jobs added? Where? Oil refineries and coal mines? Nope. Private Education and Healthcare.

Griffiths said he trusts the data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics but advised caution, as these numbers will likely be downwardly revised.

they're called private jobs where we can generate tax revenue. Something democrats don't understand. you all have no clue on tax revenues. what a shame for supposed grown ups.

Taking credit for California I see?

California’s Unemployment Rate Drops as Employers Added 93,500 Jobs with Private Education and Health Services Leading the Way in Jobs​

Trump added 178,000 jobs? That number will be adjusted down. But 93,000 are in Cali *****.

As long as its below demand it doesnt matter how much is produced thats why it went up under Biden that was his intention. Then we were supposed to buy EV cars which never happened. All we got was 9% inflation and lot of lame excuses like Putin did it.
Gas did come down under Trump and went up with the war. When that ends oil and gas will drop.
EV car inventories are backing up. EV buses cant work in winter. Many EV companies have gone bankrupt. Without subsidies few will buy them and they depreciate to nothing quickly.

You fail to explain why there wasn't an initial increase in crude oil production when Trump took office. If Biden was suppressing production, when did the suppression stop and why was there not a bump in production? And, as always, you ignore the numbers and create your own reality. EV sales are down year over year but still remain strong and inventory levels are actually tightening.

Oil production was at record levels

Fact

But below demand which drives up the price. Your fact needs context. When supply is less then demand price increases.
It was below demand because Biden suppressed production by making Federal land off limits, stopped all new wells in the gulf and off shore, used the EPA and Dept of Energy to delay and deny permits. Banks were reluctant to lend to oil drillers because the climate was hostile. The purpose was to force us to buy EV cars which was a total failure. Inventories piled up EV bus companies went bankrupt, car rental companies got rid of all their EV cars. This was an attempt to micro manage peoples behavior and it caused 9% inflation. Context is everything your fact is worthless

Gas and inflation came down after Trump was elected it takes months even years to restart oil production after all the damage Biden did. Its not like turning on a tap. New wells have to be built that takes time. It is happening.
Under President Trump's second term (beginning Jan 2025), U.S. oil production has set records, with 2025 offshore oil production hitting over 714 million barrels and total production reaching 13.6 million b/d. His "American Energy Dominance" agenda focuses on deregulation, such as rolling back methane rules to lower industry costs, and promoting drilling on federal lands.

Under Trump

Oil Production Trends and Policies (2025–2026):

• Production Records: Total U.S. crude oil production hit a new all-time high of 13.6 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2025, with growth expected to continue into 2026.
• Offshore Output: Offshore production reached 714 million barrels in 2025, with federal Gulf of Mexico production reaching nearly 1.9 million b/d
  .
  • Regulatory Changes: The EPA announced a rule in April 2026 to scale back Biden-era methane requirements, designed to save the industry $2.5 billion over 15 years.
  • Goal & Strategy: The administration's "drill, baby, drill" strategy aims to boost production by streamlining leasing and providing regulatory certainty, with Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum emphasizing strengthening the economy.

First, your source.

U.S. crude oil production rose in 2025, setting new record - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)

www.eia.gov

From that source,

In 2025, the number of active rigs per month in L48 was 5% less than in 2024 and 1% fewer wells were drilled.

Where is the Trump bounce?

Contextual Factors:

• Industry Focus: As producers exhaust some high-yield areas, they are increasingly relying on advanced technology and intensifying efforts in older areas like the Permian Basin.
• Economic Impact: The administration states that energy development on public lands and waters under its policies supports significant economic output, job creation, and revenue for Tribal communities.
• Environmental Concerns: Critics have expressed concerns about the environmental impact of accelerating oil production, particularly regarding Endangered Species Act exemptions in the Gulf.

Interior Highlights Record U.S. Energy Production Under President Trump’s American Energy Dominance Agenda | U.S. Department of the Interior

The Department of the Interior today announced that U.S. energy production reached record levels in 2025, with offshore oil production totaling over 714 million barrels, the highest annual output on record

www.doi.gov

• Never before in America’s history has our Nation been more energy dominant: Thanks to President Trump’s policies, America leads the world in oil and natural gas production, producing at all-time records.
  • U.S. crude oil production reached record-high levels of output in 2025 at over 13.6 million barrels per day.
  • The U.S. is currently producing 24 million barrels per day in oil and liquid fuels production—more than Russia and Saudi Arabia combined.
  • The U.S. is producing nearly as much natural gas as Russia, Iran and China combined at 110 billion cubic feet per day.

It is really hard to take you serious. "It takes time", "You can't turn it on like a spigot". But then, in one short year, Trump turned everything around and turned the US into energy dominance like the world has never seen before. Bullshit, we were already dominating. And production in the Gulf, five new platforms came online in 2025. What, Trump shit those platforms out of his ass?

Biden wrecked the economy and energy production. How can brain damaged senile fool manage anything. Everything is better under Trump
