President Joe Biden knows that it’s getting more and more difficult to convince Americans that inflation isn’t transitory and that gas prices aren’t going to keep increasing until no one can afford to drive to the grocery store to buy groceries they can’t afford.
Tune in as I deliver remarks on my Administration’s actions to reduce the impact of Putin’s price hike on energy prices and lower gas prices at the pump for American families. https://t.co/bOJwkHqLxR

What do you do when everyone knows you’re full of crap? You turn the gaslight up to 11, of course.
Joe Biden kicks off gas speech noting "the cost here at home" from Putin's war in Ukraine and gas prices.

Do you know how much it hurts, Joe? Do you? Because we find that very difficult to believe. If you did know how much it hurts, you’d stop dodging blame and accept your part in it. And you’d stop pushing for policies that will absolutely make this crisis much, much worse.

Joe Biden has never been honest with the American people. Not once. Not intentionally, anyway. Our best bet at getting the truth from him is when he slips up and forgets the lie he’s supposed to tell us.
Joe Biden also blames COVID-19 and his booming economy for the high cost of gas.
— Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) March 31, 2022
Ah, yes. The COVID pandemic. Hello, old friend. You and Vladimir Putin have a lot to talk about, what with being the two roots of high gas prices.

He thinks we’re stupid … and apparently also rich enough to be able to afford to buy an electric vehicle like it’s nothing:
Joe Biden boasts that drivers can save $80 a month if they just buy an electric car.
— Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) March 31, 2022
Come on, peasants! Surely you can scrape enough together for a base-model Tesla.
The average price for an electric car is $56,437.
So you’d make your money back after 705 months.
That’s over 58 years. https://t.co/htbVnitioA

just drop $60,000 on a new car and you could save $80/mo it's not that hard. https://t.co/G6eDFH1XSf

Abigail, you’re not considering the money that you’ll save when Joe Biden lowers gas prices anywhere from 10 cents to 35 cents a gallon:
“That’s a really important question” says Joe Biden when asked how much and when gas prices will come down.
“How far down I don’t think anyone can tell.”
— Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) March 31, 2022
BIDEN: Gas prices "will come down, and it could come down fairly significantly. It could come down the better part of, you know, anything from 10 cents to 35 cents…" pic.twitter.com/z7WytASlD0

With all the savings you’ll have from that, you’ll be able to afford that EV in no time.
In the meantime, it looks like it’s gonna be up to the oil companies to get us out of this:
"This is the time to step up," Joe Biden says, urging oil companies to produce more oil and fulfill their patriotic duty
— Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) March 31, 2022
What’s stopping the oil companies from doing their patriotic duty and lowering gas prices? Nothing, according to Joe Biden:

Except, of course, for the Biden administration and the Democratic Party.
President Biden is urging Congress to impose fees on oil and gas companies that lease public lands but aren’t producing, as he announces the release of 1 million oil barrels per day for six months.

Families can’t afford food and gas because the Biden administration is sitting on the oil companies’ hands.
Wait… they pay to lease the land and NOT drill ( which, I am pretty sure the left WANTS) and now you want to fine them because they are not drilling?
Yeesh. https://t.co/I0angHfBn0

All this makes perfect sense to the Biden administration and the Democratic Party and all of their shameless apologists. But to the rest of us, it’s insanity. Just pure insanity.

It’s simultaneously crazy and not at all surprising that Joe Biden is asking for commitment from the industries he’s spent all this time demonizing.
