In a very lengthy thread we wrote about earlier, Charlotte Clymer did some extensive detective work to debunk Wolf Blitzer’s photo of gas in Washington, D.C. costing $4.30 a gallon for regular. According to her research, Blitzer took that photo at the most expensive gas station in D.C. and could have easily gotten gas for $3.58 a gallon if he’d driven to a Shell station a mile and a half away. That still sounds expensive to us, but we all know how desperate Blitzer is to make President Biden look bad.
Clymer’s work was wasted, though, as Biden later in the day asked Americans if they ever thought they’d be paying this much for a gallon of gas, noting that it costs $4.50 a gallon in some parts of California.

Yes, when Brandon was sworn in.
— Julia 👩🏻✈️ (@JulsWesterfield) November 10, 2021
Yup. As soon as they called the election we all knew we were doomed.

Yes. The minute you were elected.
— Laura 🇺🇸 (@LorieBama) November 10, 2021
The minute he was declared the winner, yes.

Yep, when on day 1 you signed an Executive Order canceling the Keystone pipeline
— PhillyGirl (@FranklinPhilly) November 10, 2021
Yes, the minute I saw your dumb ass shut down the pipeline.
— Truth Patriot (@jastone_stone) November 10, 2021
Yes of course. The day you were elected.
It was obvious you were going to squander our energy independence immediately. This is not even a little bit of a surprise.

Based on Biden's actions I expected gas prices to rise. He took direct against the oil industry which had a direct impact on oil and gas prices.

It’s actually $5.50 per gallon (not $4.50) in parts of CA, but who’s counting?
— Chris Jackson (@cj12jackson) November 10, 2021
It’s like he’s bragging about it.
— Generally Speaking…. (@JonGalvin4) November 10, 2021
Is he proud of that?
— Wicked Fireball Cris🔥❤️ (@Cali_Cris1) November 10, 2021
He seems giddy about it
— Brent Anderson (@BrentAnderson99) November 10, 2021
As if it’s someone else’s fault.

You can tell by his body language, he thinks that is nowhere near enough. Once you accept this is his deliberate intent, the policy makes perfect sense.

This guy is something else. I knew he was delusional but damn, this is on another level!
— PJF22 (@NFLtalk411) November 10, 2021
Should someone tell him?
— 🇺🇸☀️🌴Laura🌴☀️🇺🇸 (@flasunshine929) November 10, 2021
@JoeBiden is so senile he doesn’t even understand that it’s his policies that are raising prices on everything!
Or he does and he’s just being an asshole. #LetsGoBrandon #FJB— Arrowhead Loud (@ArrowheadLoud) November 10, 2021
Did you ever think you'd destroy so many things so quick? 😩
— Susan Coward (@susieqewtie) November 10, 2021
It’s like he’s campaigning against himself
— Banditcal – 🙏🇺🇸 (@Banditcal27) November 10, 2021
That's some quality ad material right there.
— Grab Your Popcorn (@furioustheguy) November 10, 2021
Best campaign ad ever.
— Steve #LetsGoBrandon (@schristle2) November 10, 2021
It’s all right, though, because at the same event Biden said he’s going to create good union jobs that pay $45 an hour.
