    My buddy who owns his own truck has been paying around $1020 per fill up.
    The higher diesel goes the more expensive everything will be.
    Biden's handlers still hasn't opened up our natural resources to combat this. Makes me wonder if Biden's handlers are Chinese and or Russian agents.

    Biden now planning to purchase 60m barrels in the fall for the SPR, at higher price than when he released it a month ago.

    Sell low, buy high, prices have already erased the minor effect of the SPR release and have resumed soaring. With Biden's raging incompetence and ideological hatred of domestic energy, the only way out is demand destruction via extreme pain at the pump and the store.

    I’m the last election I thought Jo Jorganson was by far the best candidate and one that many people could get behind if they weren’t so conditioned to think they have to vote republican or democrat.
    So another threw away their vote kind. I get it, some are just not made up to have a strong President like Trump…

    You say throwaway, I say voting for who will represent me and my interests best no matter what.
    For all the good it will do you might as well just vote for yourself, after all, “who will better to represent you and your interests no matter what“ and the chance of winning is the same…

    Others will do the heavy lifting of voting for those that will actually govern us...

    If the <4% of the people who are so conditioned they need to vote for people like Jorgensen had voted Trump, he might be president now

    If <4% of the people who voted for Trump voted for Jorg
    ensen, nothing would be different. She would still be cooling her heels in SC

    Lowered cost of living, cheapest gas in a decade, closed borders, functioning economy, imposed taxes on Chinese import crap, was making America great again. Was I close? People hate Trump, simply because sense isn't a common attribute anymore.:dunno:

    Some are forgetting Trump wasted over $8 Trillion...twice as much in 4 yrs. Bringing Debt to $27 Trillion. Lets also give him credit outdoing every president before him in wasting and spending and borrowing. By the way I lost my job over this crap as my company took the Trump $$$, fired all of us and moved to another State all paid for by the government....and during that time I and many others worked all during covid for same amount of $$$ while many others got laid off and found out they were taking home double the pay they were making if they had been working. I can see literally see the masses in joy if Trump getting back in office and the whole s***show collapses and people are stunned. You can't keep spending the credit card every single day for decades and never pay it back. Over the years as debt keeps climbing so does the prices on about everything. Everyone has a right to vote for who they want, not just who can win. Personally I won't vote for Trump again. I rather write in Rand Paul who I think at least understands history and what our forefathers said about debt. I rather give him the chance to STOP spending, stop borrowing and stop wasting $$$$$$. But I really don't think our votes matter anymore, the elites, China, and probably the CIA are running this country for the rich. Hows voting helped stop the debt.....which is now $30 Trillion and by 2028 a prediction of over $72 Trillion. We can't see the debt, thats the blindspot......its going to kill us in the end just like Rome....by the way the leaders in Rome were going nuts right at the end also and the politicians were trying to take and make as much $$$ as they could. We need another party folks....R and D are killing us, just in different ways.

    You are not giving Trump credit for what he tried to start that the hogs of his own party derailed. Was he supposed to unilaterally cut spending? Congress controls the purse strings. RP would find the same problem. Here is an article on 66 proposed programs he wanted to eliminate. You post way oversimplifies the situation. After wuwho flu hit all bets were off…

    Yeah you threw it in the round file and did it knowingly.
    No way that man could gather any support from any branch of Gov. being an outsider. He would just waste 4 years of his life. We all know this.
    Of course you can do as you will with "YOUR" vote as it is exactly that.....Yours.
    But please, dont even try and convince us it was the right thing to do in the insanity we are surrounded with.

    Please know that "No" one on this planet hates the system more than me and mine. We truly hate it and want it to burn down. But that is not going to happen and we all know that. Far to much power/influence/money.
    We lost our voice long ago and Trump was as close as we have gotten to getting any of it back.
    This is the truth as I see it my friend. There is no 3rd party that has any chance and there was evidence that Billery was funding the front running 3rd party guy in her bid to distract us.
    Its all a huge game and we are but pawns.

    He pushed for a lot of the spending, signed everything on his desk. Sure you can blame others, and I also am....the entire party, both of them. Covid shouldn't of had anything to do with it....it was just a $$$$ making scam and Trump bought it and used it to pay out Billions. I'm not accepting excuses...as they said in the Army the maximum range for a excuse is 0 meters. We are all just maggots on the gut pile of life to the government, some like me have finally figured that out, some haven't. I do give Trump lots of credit and he did many good things...have always said that, voted for him and gave him the chance....and since I voted for him I can also criticize him and the party when I see the bad. All I'm trying to do is shoot up a flare of warning for others to think about and see.....but alas.....most rather look at fireworks and ignore a signal flare......just like before the Titanic sank. fullsizeoutput_6d9.jpeg

    Amen brother !

    I may I add that I truly fear we (this country ) will never get the “type” of people elected that is truly needed to ever right this ship. No one votes for pain or to take/reduce something they are accustom to and want more of. The voters won’t in numbers large enough for candidates to win. The anointed, powerful Rs& Ds both that are elected will never do that. To correct our course and expediently, we need drastic action, fast, and in many cases not pleasant for many. Trump was the closest we will ever get and there was/is much about him I differ with. Our opposition ( both sides of the aisle and the source of their funding ) learned a lesson with Trump. There will never be someone elected along with a congress needed to get the job done. Not out of the main stream, the flow of power and money. Our demise I fear won’t end until we crash and burn at the bottom of this fall. The end.

    Rand Paul has been in the senate since 2011. He supported Romney in 2012, competed against Trump in 2016 but supported him after he won the nomination

    He has accomplished very little of substance during that time beyond tilting at windmills such as voting against stop gap bills to avert a government shut down which pass anyway. It is hard to tell if he is fighting the good fight when so little gets accomplished, the whole Maverick thing in its own way can be just an excuse to not do much but look good doing it. Say what you like about Trump, he got things done - witness beginning construction of the wall against all opposition from both the progs and most of his own party

    Headline from the 1/10/18 edition of The Hill:

    Rand Paul: ‘We don’t have money to spend’ for Trump’s border wall

    Accomplished nothing good for the country, burnished his image. Another McCain, Maverick only seems able to deliver friendly fire; the other side can just ignore him

    Further more; as part of the debate Ron Paul, who was just as effective in congress as his son, went on to say Trump didn't need a wall to deter immigration - that he should remove incentives to come here. As if that wouldn't take years or need to be accomplished without major, multi-pronged action by the same congress that wouldn't even fund a wall. IMO again he was saying what makes him look good while ensuring nothing is accomplished. Acorn doesn't fall far from the tree

    I will take someone who gets **** done, warts and all
