Big oil 400% more $ on less product! They also got oil reserves for free! Just must pay back 120% Bet they do not put oil back under Trump!

Oil being high is a BAD thing. It risks demand destruction and a further move towards renewables - hence why oil companies don't want prices at these levels. But Trump is an idiot.

Weird then that we still have a nearly $2 trillion deficit last year. Where is this fortune going? To the pedo and his fellow fascists, the oil companies? I think we know. I KNOW we know. 😡😡

They still believe that some of those billions of dollars will make it into their pockets. The stupidity of these people is sad to see.

Trump “the United States oil and gas business is making hundreds of billions of dollars" That makes MAGA super happy when they spend $200 to fill up their F350 with diesel. Just what they want to hear. Their money going straight into a billionaire’s pocket.

Jesus Fucking Christ, he is telling the crowd to their faces “Hey dumbfucks, while you’re hemorrhaging your paychecks to fill up your tanks to get to your job and make rent, the Board and corporate officers are chewing on your bones while they buy fourth homes and private jets. Worship me!!!”

I hate to say this, but there aren’t too many folks who utilize their brains, apply critical thinking, etc in my neck of the woods. They don’t mind being a sheep led to slaughter.

Just imagine clapping like seals for a snake oil salesman cult leader who is the direct reason “oil prices are temporally high” and has absolutely no plan to change that fact.

It never ceases to amaze me that they can all sit there while he announces how he’s playing them.

"While oil prices are temporarily high..." The same people who whined about gas prices while Biden was president. bsky.app/profile/215p...

215 Pounds on the Moon, in 1/6 Gravity, Maybe.@215poundsonthemoon.bsky.social

Gas prices were over $4 for 24 weeks when Biden was president. MAGA bitched nonstop. Gas prices have been over $4 for 26 weeks under Trump this year. I haven't heard a single complaint from MAGA. Biden Trump

The trump clown’s circus must be ended now. The American people deserve to have a decent human being as POTUS instead of the criminal rapist racist felon trump. Impeach convict remove incarcerate trump now!

While the people who aren’t billionaires suffer because of his stupidity! This coming from the man who started a war but wants a NOBEL Peace Prize! What a dumbass! I can’t even with this despicable asshat! 🤬

Using the words “the United States” makes it sound like a win for our nation In reality Trump and the people who own the oil and gas businesses are making hundreds of billions Hundreds of billions from the countries they sell the oil and gas to and taxpayers who are paying more at the pump

Aren’t the oil and gas companies one of your greatest supporters? What do you say to that Trump you asked them to donate $1 billion to your campaign in 2024 and now they’re just getting it back.

So how does that help the people? The oil companies don't pay taxes. They get tax breaks. So what do I care if ExxonMobil makes billions of dollars that will never help me?

HEY! You’re not supposed to say or think that kind of stuff. You really shouldn’t even be thinking at all. You’re just supposed to cheer. Got it?!

Wait...conservatives are saying Obama is out of touch for mocking the Cheesecake Factory. Meanwhile, Trump seems to think we'll all be ecstatic that oil and gas oligarchs are making a fortune off his manufactured energy crisis. He's such a dipshit.

America exports more oil than it imports. The reason gas prices are so high is because the oil companies are taking advantage of the war to increase the price of their existing inventory. Middle and working class Republicans are suckers.

He has 60% disapproval and he he just keeps saying shit like this. How does every dem in every congressional race not just play this stuff on repeat and say “a vote for my opponent is a vote for more of this”

Darwin's theory is looking questionable when observing such a mob cheering on an imbecile. Surely natural selection dictates that these type of humans should be nearing extinction.

...so why are they laying off thousands, then? If nothing else, Trump's outlining why this economy's gone insane - the rich are getting massively richer by exploiting & grifting at our expense, and NONE of that money's coming back. They're squirreling it away & telling us to tighten our belts.

The prices will fall dramatically "as soon as this war is over" when this MFer said, like 20 times that the war is over and we won. Not ONE of them is putting 2 & 2 together. And they're gonna go vote next month. God DAMN it

That’s been his objective all along. Help strengthen Putin, enrich Jared’s Saudi back channel, and help his oil buddies. All at our expense, along with the rest of the world. He doesn’t give a shit about anything but his own personal gain. And these fools cheer him on.
