  1. I'll take $4.42 a gallon….. it's $6 a gallon in CALIFORNIA! Don't have NOTHING to complain about.

  2. Biden only cares about m illegal law breakers m leeches he s nd pallets baby formula border and american born babies r suffering

  3. Biden is blame he is hurting all poor people he's doing his this spiteful because he wants us all get electric car bidn in la la land we r poor we cannot afford electric cars so Biden punishing poor people think about it people

  4. Shut down pipelines and cancel drilling leases, then dump 2 trillion dollars into the economy. Next, blame oil companies for gas price inflation and not creating the energy the government won't let them create.

  5. looks like MADMAX⛽…SOoo glad my VAN hydrogen powered HHO gets 200miles on gal h20 & tsp. of boron….the united states of America federal reserve system of paper debt….like rats on a sinking ship…

  6. warnock is pretty helpful isn't he. supported fidel castro. that could be a communist

  7. just keep voting democrats. as they do their forced socialism on you

  8. You voted for Biden Georgia. Deal with it

  9. When I was a kid in the 60s. $5.20 got you 20 gallons of gas. Do the math!

  10. Thanks to Brandon's policies we have
    x2 gas and grocery prices, your 9.6% inflation and %$3,500 drop in annual real wages. My condolences to anyone like myself retiring this year. 30years of nonstop work just to have a crooked system swallow all your earnings.

  11. Well peeps got money now so distribution of wealth needs to go back to the 1 percent now

  12. You have no idea how deluded Leftists are. They think that high gas and food prices are due to "corporate greed", that Russia invading Ukraine is Trump's fault, that life begins as soon as a "fetus" exists the mother's birth canal, and that the election was the "most secure in history", all while they claim that 2016 was fraudulent (and there are even some of them stating that if a Republican wins in 2024 it's fraudulent).

  13. You have pleanty of gas, stop lying about that. Shame you were in a 20 year war huh. Why does WAR cause inflation? But, speaking up about that massive 4x anyone else combined debt though huh, almost to the point, you dont have a say about it.

  14. I dont see this stopping anytime soon, keep coming across and reading about people grabbing multi-digit income in investments every month, even in these crazy days in the market, any pointers on how to make substantial progress in income? I would appreciate. The cost of living at this time is getting really high..??I really need good or should i just say the best ways to increase my finance!??

  15. I BLAME BIDEN VOTERS

  16. Hope you’re happy democrats👍 Beautiful job so far. Well done👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

  17. Well we know what it could be for the Republicans but we have to know what we know what it is for the Democrats and it's a b** ain't it

  18. They cut the brotha off mid speech 🎤 he was gonna say some real truth ya Hurd me

  19. If you voted for Biden you have no right to complain you did it

  20. Complaining of high gas prices, while driving more at the same time. Irony.

  21. Prices started rising on everything at the beginning of the pandemic so don't blame our president! The greedy corporations are the ppl to blame.
