    I looked it up, and supposedly gas peaked at $5 under Biden, but I don’t know when that was, and it must not have lasted very long. I know for a fact that it was a point of pride that I had never paid over $3.99 per gallon until Trump came along.

    Besides, how does that Biden-blaming work? So if gas got to $9 under Biden, does that mean MAGAs are okay with it going to 8.99?

    I assume they were pissed at Biden when it got over $3-4, right? So how come if it was bad when Biden did it, it’s okay for Trump to do it? This idea of: “So what if inflation/ unemployment/ etc is way up, it was worse under Biden!” is a really illogical argument. You hated it under Biden enough that you just had to allow a proven traitor and pedophile back into the job, but now it’s all okay? It seems like everything bad is okay, as long as it isn’t as bad as Biden, but if it gets worse than Biden, it’s still okay, because that’s Biden’s fault, too.

    Haven’t these people ever heard that two wrongs don’t make a right?

      You’ve put way more thought i to this than they do. They are just delusional amd think things are great now and things are cheaper when they aren’t.

        If you put it in context of a sports team it makes way more sense. What he’s trying to do is say “dude look at your favorite team’s averages, they’re terrible.” No one’s gonna listen to that and they’ll just find any cope they can because it’s their favorite team and the other team is really boring and lame so they can’t be right.
