As Twitchy reported earlier, the DCCC put out a tweet thanking Joe Biden for the drop in gas prices — the two-cent drop in gas prices.
Thanks, @JoeBiden. pic.twitter.com/0iHwTLv7fB

We hope there’s some sort of fact-check coming from MSNBC because Stephanie Ruhle assured us that presidents don’t control the price of gas (hang on … it looks like she deleted that one).
The real joke here is that it looks like the DCCC got their idea for their chart, which went up in the afternoon, from Matthew Yglesias, who posted a similar chart this morning showing the steady fall of gas prices since President Biden “fixed inflation.”

The best part is that White House Chief of Staff Ronald Klain gave Yglesias a “like” for that tweet.

Klain thinks so.
Political and economic humor is so hard to pull off on Twitter but I commend you for trying.
