The incredibly disingenuous bunch in the White House that counts millions of jobs restored after mandated shutdowns as jobs this administration created is back at it, this time with gas prices. How’s this for an attempted brag?
Under this Administration, the current drop in gas prices remains one of the fastest declines in over a decade.
Gas prices have declined by an average of nearly 60 cents since their peak last month, and the average gasoline price is now $3.99 or less in four states.

Not to be outdone, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg got in on the action:
Good morning! Gas prices are going down.

So, if you’re keeping score at home:
Old and busted: "The president doesn't control the price of gasoline."
New hotness: "The president totally controls the price of gasoline." https://t.co/NxkXA5IRdh

Biden’s approval rating continuing to plummet would indicate that nobody’s buying their BS.
So…you weren't responsible when prices went up, now you're the hero when they went down a few cents? https://t.co/EGwJkwxVd6

That’s apparently how they’d like us to believe this all works. And speaking of things that are dropping:
So’s everyones 401Ks!

Is there anything more maddening than gov’t officials who make things a lot more crappy, then when they get just slightly less crappy but still way more crappy than before, they brag about it?
do you or do you not control gas prices?

If you won't take responsibility for the rise, you don't get to take credit for the decline.

Wait, what happened to the “incredible transition” that this administration was happy to usher in?
Wait… didn’t your boss say the high gas prices were a good and necessary thing? https://t.co/qunjttYeBT

"It's not the president's fault about gas prices! It's Putin."
"It's us that brought the gas prices down." https://t.co/AN8sQAt4Cf

The Biden White House is trying to make something clear:
White House only responsible for gas prices when they go down https://t.co/MsXRX49WXJ
— Jon Levine (@LevineJonathan) July 21, 2022
Nice try, Dems, but nobody’s buying it.
UPDATE:
The Biden White House can’t even brag without embarrassing themselves:
Since Monday, 26 states have experienced an increase in gas prices.
