Dems showing signs of panic over gasoline prices as Biden gaffe in Kansas City speech will make for great GOP video ads
By Thomas Lifson
The wealthy, mostly white environmental activists who donate so much to Democrats want high gasoline prices because it helps force people out of cars and encourages the purchase of electric vehicles, diminishing the Original Sin of CO2 emissions. Joe Biden started pandering to them on Day One of his presidency by cancelling the Keystone Pipeline. Predictably, as gasoline prices soared, most people got angry over seeing their budgets busted at the gasoline pump.
Apparently, this came as a surprise to the taxi, Uber, and limousine-riding elites that command Democrat party policies, who are reportedly tormented by the blizzard of “I did that!” stickers appearing at gas pumps, distributed by grass roots activists who buy the stickers themselves.
Their first reaction was to squander a chunk of the strategic oil reserve built up under President Trump when oil prices were low, getting a one-time minor price decrease, and then gaslighting the public with a misleading graph pretending that a significant price decline was underway. Biden pathetically begged the petrocrats of OPEC to increase production (they declined), and started pretending that oil companies were price gouging.
