Having solved all other problems, Joe Biden is looking to create new ones. Today, it’s by calling for a three-month long suspension of the gas tax.

Doesn’t matter. Joe Biden is hellbent on riding out his “Putin’s price hike” narrative no matter what:

Real subtle, Joe.
"Are you saying we would rather have low gas prices in America than Putin's iron first in Europe?"

Watch:
Biden: "For all Republicans criticizing me for high gas prices in America, are you now saying we were wrong to support Ukraine and stand up to Putin? Are you saying that we'd rather have lower gas prices in America than Putin's iron fist in Europe?" pic.twitter.com/Z7U8YIFgnM

Is Joe Biden saying that we have to choose between low gas prices in America and Putin’s iron fist in Europe? Because that’s a false choice.

It literally makes no logical sense whatsoever. Which is on-brand for Biden, we suppose.
Remember, also this all good and making a fundamental turn toward green energy and buy an electric car but also we now need a gas tax holiday because it's bad and Putin.

He’s all over the damn place.
I know he was wearing a helmet, but are we sure he didn't hit his head when he fell off that bike? https://t.co/pS1LAOYeea

Well, incidentally, you’d have to have brain damage to believe a word that comes out of his mouth.
Nobody believes this BS and yet they keep doubling and tripling down. https://t.co/NnFHDVezaG

Joe Biden is gaslighting on gas prices, just like he gaslights on everything else.

Once more, with feeling:
Biden specifically campaigned on being able to handle Putin, not asking the country to be patriotic and pay higher gas prices because of him. pic.twitter.com/ogtBpL4R4i

Apparently to Joe Biden, going toe-to-toe with Vladimir Putin meant bravely blaming Putin for literally everything that went wrong as a direct result of Joe Biden’s policies.
Joe Biden in a 2020 Presidential debate: "Number one, no more subsidies for fossil fuel industry. No more drilling on federal lands. No more drilling, including offshore. No ability for the oil industry to continue to drill, period, ends, number one." https://t.co/TGWIbx6vIp

Unless Vladimir Putin was there holding a gun to Joe Biden’s head when Biden said that, this is not Putin’s fault.
Incredible: Biden claims he's increased the supply of oil by…depleting our Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which we count on for use in emergencies and natural disasters. pic.twitter.com/f6ZvEkpsGD

this guy is going partisan nutjob over his own energy policy causing this. https://t.co/V091q7ZW8t

Joe Biden insists that he’s singlehandedly helping Americans through this gas crisis, standing up to Putin and Big Oil and … gas station owners:
Biden: "My message is simple. To the companies running gas stations… bring down the price you are charging at the pump … Do it now. Do it today." pic.twitter.com/rFoHfYJVI2
— Washington Free Beacon (@FreeBeacon) June 22, 2022
Bold strategy there, Joe. Blaming regular Americans just trying to make ends meet in this garbage economy.
We’ve moved on from “greedy big oil” to “greedy gas station owners.”
According to the API, more than 60% of retail stations are owned by an individual or families who run the store under a license.
So he’s attacking these people now. Average Americans.
Have fun in November. https://t.co/M3LTMcS96j

This is just the natural evolution in Biden’s blame game.
Putin. Big oil. Republicans. Now hardworking people who are running essential business are to blame for the policies Biden enacted from day one in office.

Look at those greedy stations. Making a whole 7¢ a gallon profit. https://t.co/MBdJZRBTim pic.twitter.com/4rKbJnwOF0

Of course, it’s 100% likely Biden — who has never worked a real job a day in his life — has no idea who actually owns and runs gas stations. Neither do his bubble dwelling handlers.
But this is a fun sound bite for campaign ads.
November is going to be incredible.

Biden doesn’t just want to lose in 2022 and 2024; he wants to get slaughtered.
What an absolute asshole. Blaming mom & pop Americans for having to adjust pricing based on Biden’s debased dollar. https://t.co/Zv6cLH6gnq

Total a**hole move. And we’d expect nothing less.
