    Biden can't run on his record. He can only run by bashing Trump -- or putting Trump in jail.

    America, get ready to bend over again.

    Gas hits shocking $7 per gallon at a Bay Area station

    [​IMG]


    Could gas hit $7 a gallon? It already did!

    Sam Valero at the Menlo Park Barber Shop took a photo of a Chevron sign showing gas is $7.09, $7.45, and $7.69.

    The station is on Alameda de las Pulgas in Menlo Park, a city in the Bay Area.

    While $7 a gallon is staggering, it's not the highest in the state.

    The website GasBuddy.com showed the most expensive price for regular unleaded in the state was $8.35 in San Bernardino County.

    $7 a gallon will make you miss Trump.

    Biden's been a very bad president.

    'A poll conducted earlier this month by The New York Times and Siena College lays it all out: 42 percent of respondents believe Trump’s presidency was mostly good for America, compared to a gruesome 25 percent for Biden. On the other side of the coin, while just 33 percent think Trump’s presidency was mostly a bad time, for Biden the figure is an ugly 46 percent.'

    'In another Wall Street Journal poll from March 17-24, just 38 percent of voters approve of Joe Biden’s performance as president, but 51 percent approve of Donald Trump’s performance during his term. This is 2024 in a nutshell.'

    'Americans have had three years and change to evaluate Joe Biden in the White House, and their thoughts are clear: Donald Trump did it better.'

    'the central question every voter is asking themselves come November: Who was better? Who was better on the border? Whose economic policies led to prosperity and a blue-collar boom, and whose led to inflation and oligarchy? Whose foreign policy created peace, and whose created chaos? Whose actions enraged the incompetent elites Americans loathe, and whose won their steadfast support?'

    'Because in 2024, unlike any other election in our lifetimes, there is no speculation. Both candidates have a record, and we know which president saw success and which one has only produced one failure, flop, and crisis after another.'

    Biden has done the impossible. He has surpassed Jimmy Carter as our worse president.

    Hah! Republicans will run on the premise that the President of the United States establishes gas prices.

    This is false... however... not TOTALLY false. If Biden is such a bad guy, and they do run on gas prices... and IF it starts being effective, he can release the oil reserve a month before the elections and poof! Talking point gone... If the MAGA point of view about Biden is true, he could easily win the presidency.

    I don't think he's going to need to do that, though. Trump is bad enough that he can probably just run on "the alternative" and look forward to over 300 electoral votes.

    So I guess this means Trump is screwed. If MAGAs are wrong, and Biden is a good guy... he'll win because MAGAs are wrong. And if MAGAs are right and he IS a bad guy, he has ALL the legal tools at his disposal to win the presidency by an even wider margin. Their only chance to win would be that Biden actually IS a good guy, but that they can somehow convince people that he isn't. A very very tough task for people who have to defend ... none other than TRUMP.

    "Bidenomics" Slogan Falls Flat

    Biden's Big Slogan Sale Falls Flat, gets Trashcanned.

    'The mantra was "Bidenomics." The word was plastered everywhere: flanking Biden on massive blue signs as he talked up an improving economy, across the base of his lectern, and draped down the walls of Chicago's historic post office where Biden spoke to a couple hundred supporters.'

    'For the rest of the year, Biden would go on to tout "Bidenomics" about every time he discussed the economy as he sought to tie his policy agenda − investments in manufacturing, infrastructure and the middle class − to historically low unemployment, a robust jobs market, and inflation that, after peaking in the summer of 2022, was cooling.'

    Well, prices are still rising and real wages have fallen under Bribed Joe.

    Over the final 13 quarters of the Trump Era of rising real wages, greater world peace and rising living standards, Real Wages grew by 6.4%

    Over the first 13 quarters of Bribed Joe, real wages have FALLEN by 2.9%

    That's why Bribed Joe's Bidenomics isn't selling, and why the slogan just pisses folks off even more. It's one thing to depress their real wages with the inflation and the open borders, it's another to lie in our faces about it.
