They tried blaming Russia, and people could read the charts that showed gas prices going up before Russia invaded Ukraine
There’s been a push by politicians & media members to blame gas prices on the invasion of Ukraine, and while it certainly hasn’t helped, after January 2021, gas prices rose 50% before the invasion even happened
The ability of the media to ignore reality is absolutely remarkable pic.twitter.com/q3KEF5EnGX

Americans weren’t buying that, so, Democrats flipped to trying to blame oil/gas companies. Apparently, people understand the Biden Effect, along with how a commodities market works
Survey: Plurality Blame Joe Biden for High Gas Prices
A plurality of Americans blame the Biden administration for high gas prices, an Emerson Polling survey released this week found.
Inflation is continuing to hit Americans hard as 83 percent reveal they are experiencing some level of hardship due to increased prices of goods. Of those, 40 percent say they are experiencing “significant” hardship. Given that, it comes as no surprise that the economy is the top issue for respondents.
According to the survey, “When asked about who they blame for an increase in gas prices” specifically, “a plurality (39%) blame the Biden Administration, 21% blame the sanctions on Russia, and 18% blame gas and oil companies.”
Biden has long refused to take responsibility for skyrocketing gas prices, blaming Russian President Vladimir Putin as well as gas and oil companies.
“I’m sick of this stuff. … The American people think the reason for inflation is the government spending more money,” Biden raged this month. “Simply. Not. True.”
So, the Blamestorming has rather failed. You can’t really blame any politician for refusing to take any responsibility, but, you can blame them when they do everything possibly to make the situation worse, and then do the wrong things to address the problem to resolve the problem, or, at least reduce the impact.
Lol
Fossil fuel prices are skyrocketing!!!
Renewable electricity is cheaper and prices continue to drop. Should we continue to send our money to countries that are not our friends for ever?
LOL. So you think it’s amusing that your fake president is hurting working Americans? Renewable energy isn’t able to meet the demand. Why do you enjoy damaging the American economy, people’s income and an entire industry? What kind of commie sadist are you?
President Biden won the election by some 7 million votes and 306-232 in the EC. In 2016, recall that former president trump garnered nearly 3 million fewer votes than his opponent but won the EC 306-232.
The Democrats did not storm the Capitol in 2017 in an attempt to overturn the election.

No they just held a massive rally outside of the Capitol in which Madonna said to the crowd I want to BLOW UP THE WHITE HOUSE.
Madonna’s speech, which was criticized on social media, led some television networks to abruptly stop their live feeds of the march, which drew hundreds of thousands of people in demonstrations across the United States to protest the election of Donald Trump as president.
People on the left protested all over the nation at the election of Trump.
Protests in the US against Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s election victory have turned violent as demonstrators take to the streets for a second day.
Anti-Trump protests carry on for fourth straight day after election
This is the fifth night in a row that protesters have been demonstrating in Portland. Previous protests have grown out of hand, resulting in significant property damage and disruption.
Violent protestors clash with police around the country for the sixth night over the election of Donald Trump.
NO….the left are mostly peaceful. You continue to spread half truths while ignoring the warts on the ass of your own political side.
John, that was the stance you were pushing for weeks-why are you so easily fooled? “Renewables are cheaper”. No they’re not, and they’re still unreliable. And still waiting for your answer on the reason why we should switch to unreliables
Jill,
When you address “john”, to whom are you referring???
John
Thanks, Jill.
No we shouldn’t, Johnny-and we wouldn’t have to if Brandon would open up our fossil fuel industry. I know this is a very hard concept to grasp…
The right for many years has an ALL OF THE ABOVE APPROACH FOR AGW.
Wind, Solar, Nuclear, Hydro, Hydro thermal, electric cars, electric vehicles, Fossil fuels, Coal, Natural gas.
Build it all. Don’t even care if they end subsidies on fossil fuels since they already have subsidies on Green.
But green is not going to farm food, get food to market, power the military and protect this nation against China and Russia and others.
If the left would just work with the right on a plan in a bipartisan way we could slap down a great plan to switch to alternatives.
Hell a bill preventing people from suing Nuclear power plants because its a national energy crisis. A crisis that would drill, build and provide a shit ton of green would be great for the USA.
But no. The left are paid stooges of Russia and China who have been proved to be providing funds to pacs to destroy the fossil fuel industry in the WEST.
They wont stop which is why a powerful bill that treats nuclear power plants, green, solar and wind along with drilling EQUALLY would stop all this nonsense.
It would also stop a ton of dark money coming under the table to all these SERIAL RAPISTS we elect to represent our state only to have them represent their respective leaders and their pocketbooks.
