The Atlantic’s David Frum would like ordinary citizens to explain something to their friends and family, and the Biden White House certainly agrees:
You may wonder, "what can I as an everyday citizen do to help?"
There is something.
Putin's war will raise, is raising, the cost of fuel and food. Be ready to explain that to friends and neighbors when Putin-friendly talkers and politicians try to blame our elected leaders

So the inflation and high gas prices Americans have been enduring for the past year are due to what’s happened in the last few days?
The cost of food and fuel was already on the rise with Biden policies.

Russia invading Ukraine will certainly make gas prices go even higher, but the rising cost of energy, food, etc. did not start with that.

Frum went all-out for a Ron Klain retweet, and darn it that’s what he got:
Help the Biden White House gaslight, earn a Ron Klain retweet.
How is this helping……. Just telling them it’s not bidens fault? Lmfao https://t.co/9Ur5BvOQbr

Oh I'm quite happy to explain to them how Brandon got everything to cost more, again. https://t.co/iyEp6xEy2D

we have oil here, we shouldn't need to import it. Biden shutting the pipelines down while agitating for war is unconscionable https://t.co/wRmviMFTFf

LOL. Your idea of what people can do to help is do propaganda for the Biden admin. Yeah, okay. https://t.co/UGev2J8DWn
