On Sunday’s This Week, the mostly-liberal “Powerhouse Roundtable” couldn’t handle the fact that the results of an ABC/IPSOS poll showed over sixty percent of Americans disapprove of President Biden’s handling of gas prices.
“Our new poll, interesting numbers. First of all, it showed overwhelming support for the ban on Russian oil, 77 percent support it, even if it means the poll question even if it means higher gas prices here at home,” fill-in host Jon Karl reported while breaking down the poll’s findings.
“But take a look at this other question we asked, which is, Biden's handling of gas prices, do you approve? 70 percent disapprove, so, in other words, ban Russian oil even if it means higher gas prices, but we're going to blame Biden.” Karl couldn’t understand how the public could simultaneously support banning Russian oil knowing it will lead to higher prices at the pump, while also disapproving of Biden’s failure to take any measures to lower prices.

I knew this was gonna happen once they legalized drugs in this country.
And $2 gas is now a bad thing?
It may have seemed a bargain at 2 bucks, but the real hidden price of having to also endure mean tweets was far too much to pay
Lol..they don’t expose themselves to criticism..we’d be terrorist..
Wth
A new pickup cost $2000 when I was kid. Now they are $40k
A gallon of gas was 25 cents when I was a kid, now it’s $5.
Exactly the same amount of increase in both.
As if he *has* a conscience!! I do have a conscience and it's as clear as can be at $1.85 a gallon.
gee geniuses....did it ever occur to you that the massive inflation in gas prices is NOT due to the ban on Russian imports? Its been going on for a long time - since long before the recent ban on Russian gas.
Say...why do we need Russian gas? We didn’t need to import gas aside from Canada and Mexico a year ago. What’s changed?
Rightfully so.
If the prog handlers of the Brandon "administration" would have kept their nasty claws off of the petroleum industry, gas would have gone from two bucks to two fifty.
So progs, where did the OTHER two bucks come from in the $4.50 gas?
.
You 1960’s pickup would probably be getting about 10 mpg with a lot less power & torque as well.
Understanding reality has always been an issue for Karl. He said Trump called Covid the "KungFlu" even though Trump never said such a thing.
Sure it is, what we really need is good old $0.50 gas.
Well, we should be.
There’s no excuse for not having $2 a gallon gas.
First....lets see how Karl gets to and from work every day.
Second....as with all wealthy liberals, if price increases don’t effect their bottom lines, they do not care. It’s like the rich in places like California, Seattle, NYC, etc. Their wealth insulates them from all the negative consequences of the liberal policies they support but pat themselves on the back for supporting.
Third...ask Karl and the liberal roundtable how increases in gas prices effect everything else. I would love to hear their answers, as it is pretty apparent that they have no understanding of the ripple effect that occurs when an increase in the price of anything, results in the end user paying more. But, if you have money and the costs don’t affect your bank account all that much, if you don’t have to choose between paying your rent-buying food for your family-putting gas in your car to get to work, then you have no worries.
What’s worse is gullible “americans” got used to dumbass abc panelists pretending to tell the truth about anything.
So, yeah, Brandon, it IS your fault.
Let them eat cake.
Interesting history here.
But buy more stickers.

I am against vandalism, but they appear to be easily removed or just removed a part of the backing so they can be reused.
“I did that” is the equiv of “let them eat cake”. We will write Bidens history. Do this one small act of rebellion.
Now, having said that, we do not want a french revolution against something and leading to more revolutions.
Our Founding Fathers had a very clear idea of what they were fighting for.
I bought a new Ford F-100 for $3750.00 in 1972 cash. 360 V-8, power steering, dual tanks, super cooling package. Turquoise with a white top. Gas was 35 cents a gallon and cigarettes were 25 cents a pack. And my rent was $100.00 a month for a nice one bedroom apartment. Although the first digital LED watch was $3000.00. I bought a lot of gold and silver but if there’s a crisis it won’t last. We’re in a pickle for sure.
I remember reading somewhere (I didn’t save the article) that the crude we import from Russia is the stuff used to make plastics and other things, not for gasoline. Can anyone confirm this?
