Just put up with higher gas prices to support the president’s new forever war. Stop complaining.

Don’t drive your car until gas prices come down. But we don’t want public transportation either, because that’s communism.

Starbucks: mentioned
Libs: owned.
Of *course* republicans will pay higher gas prices for trump. Higher grocery prices, too. And they’ll do it while saying “I voted for this!” because they’re in a cult.

Great way to win those voters over.

Well, a lot of people just stop on their way to work so I guess they should stay home from work too?

As a retired Naval officer I’m tired of Republicans using the “don’t you support the troops?” bullshit anytime anyone questions their terrible foreign policy decisions.
Of course I support my teammates and comrades. That’s why I’m against sending them on shitty deployments and risking their lives for corporate profit and a geriatric toddlers most recent hallucinations.

And buy your children less dolls for Christmas and less pencils for school.
Why do they keep wanting us to accept less? Why does MAGA think that equates to freedom? Why doesn’t MAGA realize that the rich are getting so much richer off the backs of the poor?
Why does this woman think a $2 per gallon hike in gas price means “one less trip to Starbucks” when my commute is 60 miles a day.
The math doesn’t add up. This woman needs to be replaced with someone who knows what they are talking about.

Maybe somebody should inform this senate candidate that an increase in fuel prices will also raise the cost of essential things like food… you know, the thing that keeps you alive.

if a democratic candidate said this, that clip would be on an endless loop on Fox News and all propaganda networks for months. But it is ok here because orange hitler said it is

Tired of the GOP literal and figurative gas-lighting bullshit. The price of oil going up increases the cost of literally EVERYTHING.
FeelingPixely on
I’m less concerned about gas and more about diesel and how that affects domestic transport and increases prices for goods unilaterally.. but what do I know, maybe I’ll visit Starbucks less than the 0 times per year I already do.
Let me ask if anyone here would be comfortable paying even 10% more for groceries or clothing? 25%? And that’s after healthcare, energy and housing prices increases this year? Are your wages increasing enough to compensate? And for business owners, how have your customers been reacting? Are you cutting back hours or laying people off?

Even if that were true why should I? Why should I have to sacrifice my Starbucks for a war I don’t support?

Michele Tafoya’s net worth is estimated between **$2 million and $5 million**.
At the peak of her career as the sideline reporter for *NBC Sunday Night Football* (2011–2022), her annual salary was estimated to be at least **$200,000 to $500,000**, with some reports suggesting it was higher during her final years.
If she becomes a Sitting Senator (Incumbent) her wages will be $174,000
She has no idea what poverty is

I literally only go to work and home now a days because they ruined the price of everything. There is no cutting out trips to places. That happened a year ago. Bitch
troniked547 on
so damn crazy the people saying this are the same ones supporting the billion dollar a day war for Israel and asking for $200 billion more. Instead of cutting back on Starbucks, how about they cut back on wars?

Ahhh this is an age old generational insult! I haven’t heard it in ages. No avocado toast either, right?

Reminder high gas prices is not just paying more at the gas pump. Gas prices increasing will raise the price of everything because gas is needed to produce and ship the item you are buying.

Stop voting for Republicans. They only care about the rich and big business. They push “woke”, Christian religion, and racism, to divide us. Tax the rich, they will still be rich and the rest of us will have our lives improved.

If this was a just, regrettably necessary war that had consensus, a coalition, and definable goals, a sacrifice like this can be a small patriotic ask.
This is none of those things and therefore it’s horseshit.

It really does amaze me how 100% hypocritical they are about absolutely everything. It’s like they literally have two opposing comments ready to go for every topic depending on whether they’re defending their guy or blaming someone else. They have zero actual positions on anything. Their entire worldview is based on speaking opposites based on who is in power. And this flies with half of America. Insane.

The party of personal responsibility – whose actions of a “kinda sorta war” have directly translated to higher prices on oil, global economic chaos, and an unlimited, unfettered amount of funding upwards of trillions of dollars to keep bombing in the Middle East – says “lol this is on you and your creature comforts.”

Fuck the hypocrisy. When gas prices are high under a Democratic president, the GOP cries that the sky is falling, but when it’s a Republican in the White House then everyone just needs to suck it up.
