Already looking back with rose colored glasses at the disaster that was Biden/Harris.

Let's keep in mind, all experts be it economist, scientist or whatever "forecaster" anyone wants to quote, are all paid to tell/"prove" a certain POV. This goes for both sides of the aisle.

Ummm, gas prices went up immediately when sworn in. The most conservative of economists pointed out their prognostication, for months and yesterday.

The past is saying that GOP POTUS's raises the debt more than Dem POTUS's. ☺️

Let the flip flopping begin from both sides!!!!!

The gas and grocery prices have nothing to do with POTUS but he is president.

Which dovetails to Ukraine and Putin. Putin has F’d wheat prices since 2014. Ukraine DOES literally feed the world, that’s why it important the U.S. help our EU partners. That’s just one example.

The Rose colored glasses:

Withdrawal from Afghanistan:

"The fact is, President Joe Biden and his predecessor, Donald Trump, were both eager to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan and end what Biden referred to in his Aug. 16 speech as “America’s longest war.”

The Trump administration in February 2020 negotiated a withdrawal agreement with the Taliban that excluded the Afghan government, freed 5,000 imprisoned Taliban soldiers and set a date certain of May 1, 2021, for the final withdrawal."-https://www.factcheck.org/2021/08/timeline-of-u-s-withdrawal-from-afghanistan/

The economy during Biden term

"The consensus in the media seems to be that even though the economy is strong, people see it differently. Voters, burned by the rising price of groceries, felt pinched and demanded change. This story surely describes some voters, but we find it hard to believe that Americans elected Trump because they are confused about the economy....During booms, by contrast, voters are more willing to take risks and therefore more likely to elect Republicans, who favor lower taxes...Democratic presidents cause high stock returns; rather, they tend to get elected when risk aversion and expected future returns are high. The opposite is true for Republicans. According to our model, Trump just got elected because risk aversion is low due to the strong economy....This is not Trump’s fault—blame it on the strong economy under Biden."-https://www.chicagobooth.edu/review/the-economy-has-been-great-under-biden-thats-why-trump-won

"For data through November 2024, President Biden on average had the lowest unemployment rate (4.12%) and highest real hourly wages for production & non-supervisory workers ($30.11) among presidents back to 1964."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_policy_of_the_Joe_Biden_administration#:~:text=For data through November 2024,the FTC, FCC and CFPB.

Stop it. Joe Biden inherited a pandemic and a broken supply chain and that didn’t stop MAGA from calling it ‘Joe Biden’s Inflation’ on Day One in 2021. Geez, indeed.

Hollywood Is Now Ready to Work With Trump: ‘You Didn’t Hear Biden Talking About How to Help Us’

The night before Donald Trump returned to the White House, one of the splashiest inauguration week bashes was kicking off at D.C. hot spot Sax Restaurant & Lounge. Atlanta rapper Waka Flocka Flame performed, while conservative VIPs Ben Shapiro, comedian Terrence K. Williams and “Am I Racist?”...

Meh. I don't remember day 1 complaining about Joe's prices, however I do remember complaining a year later when prices were still going up.
Either way, let's chill for now. If Trump can't fix it, I'll complain with you.

Let the flip flopping begin from both sides!!!!!

Before the last election, I believe Corona said, "People actually believe that gas prices are going to go to 5 dollars a gallon under Biden. And everyone on here laughed.

Well, it did. Gas prices more than doubled under Biden. It was $2.39 under Trump, and went to over $5 in June of 2022. Of course the blame was placed on Russia, just like everything else. Not on canceled oil, gas leases and the cancelation of the Keystone Pipeline. He restricted oil production. Within hours of being elected he put a moratorium on drilling permits and made it impossible to get offshore leases. Gas Prices averaged 40 percent more under Biden than Trump.

Of course, Biden emptied all the oil reserves which were plentiful under Trump to try and keep it down due to the optics. Bidenomics at its best. They even changed the meaning of Recession.

Like it or not, Biden was the one steering energy policy during a time of elevated energy costs across the board. While he can’t be blamed for things outside of his control, he can be blamed for failing to act. He did nothing just like when his message to Iran was a laughable "Don't" followed by another failure to act when they did.

So, I find it so funny when you have people saying it it Trump's fault the gas prices went up 50 cents, but it was never Biden's that they doubled. It is pure hypocrisy. Secondly, I will guarantee, gas prices will end up much lower than Biden's term as Trump will actually act. Of course, the same liberals will say it was Biden that lowered the gas. There was not one peep from any liberal on here about the gas prices after the election. Now, all of a sudden here come the comments because it went up 2 days later.

And for the comments that they are better under democrats, than why under Biden and Obama were prices higher than under Bush and Trump? I can already tell you what their answer will be. Maybe the real answer is that Bush and Trump are pro oil? Secondly, they also don't like the United States having to rely on anyone else, and sit and blame Russia for higher prices across the board.
