White House press secretary stumped by question about energy producers: 'trying to put them out of business'
The White House has been touting Biden's role in lowering gas prices since their peak in the summer

By Bradford Betz | Fox News


   Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy on Wednesday pressed White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre to explain exactly how President Biden expected oil companies to lower their gas prices when his administration has repeatedly tried to undermine them with its environmental policies.

Jean-Pierre had kicked off the press conference touting Biden’s role in bringing down gas prices since their peak in the summer.

She added that the president was "also calling on oil and gas companies to pass on their savings to consumers at the pump."

Jean-Pierre referred to a chart indicating that industry profits margins are adding more than 60 cents to the average price of a gallon of gas "and keeping prices higher than they should be."

"This is unacceptable," she said.

Later in the press conference, Doocy asked Jean-Pierre why oil companies would "listen to an administration that is ultimately trying to put them out of business."

The terrible evil Trump had gas prices around 2 dollars a gallon, now the god Biden has gas in places 4-6 dollars a gallon.  When Biden gets done favoring you gas will probably be at Obamas demanded 10 dollars a gallon.  Woke utopian fools demanded we get it and now we are seriously moving that way.  Remember along the way Woke utopian democrats getting their way are bound to blame it all on Trump repeatedly.
How the wicked love wicked leaders that lead them down the road of desolation and destruction.  They are going to get their way....with a vengeance.
