    Can you imagine how much more pain it would be if there were no tax cuts? No worries there Ken though, your public assistance checks will always make it no matter what it costs everyone else.

    He's already working on his deflection, attacking OPEC today, by the time the right wing media gets done it will all be laid on OPEC and bad trade deals made by prior Presidents, even though Trump is buddy buddy with Saudi Arabia now who is the big player in OPEC

    Higher American demand and lower foreign supply. Trump should slap a tariff on it unless they pay us to take their old Muslim Allahsaurus dinosaur waste off their hands. The G in MAGA stands for gas damn it!!!!

    How come when gas skyrocketed under Obama liberals did not complain. They only complain when it happens under a republican president.

    If it wasn't for double standards, liberals wouldn't have any.

    Construction on the Keystone Pipeline has not yet begun, Komrade.

    Fact of life kids, an increase in economic activity has always brought an increase in transportation costs. And as I recall, didn't we just resume exporting oil? https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...climate-pacts/ Ah yes, seems I was correct. Not to mention, OPEC IS keeping the price of their crude artificially high.

    How does OPEC keep their prices "artificially high"? Last time I looked the OPEC price basket was $70.96.. or just a little cheaper than Brent of Texas sweet.
