What’s Happening:
Gas prices continue to rise, putting pain on everyday Americans. Joe Biden, despite being largely responsible for this crisis because of his policies to replace fossil fuels with green energy, has blamed everyone but himself.
Most recently, he blamed gas stations for the high prices. Well, America’s energy producers were not standing for that.
From Fox Business:
The U.S. Oil & Gas Association took a hit at President Biden after he tweeted on Saturday that “companies running gas stations” should simply “bring down the price you are charging at the pump,” telling him that he should “please make sure the WH intern who posted this tweet registers for Econ 101 for the fall semester.”
“Working on it Mr. President. In the meantime – have a Happy 4th and please make sure the WH intern who posted this tweet registers for Econ 101 for the fall semester…,” they tweeted.
And one of America’s most successful billionaires (and Democrats) decided to set the record straight as well. And Joe was not happy about it.
From The Western Journal:
Bezos criticized Biden for the tweet within hours. “Ouch. Inflation is far too important a problem for the White House to keep making statements like this,” the billionaire wrote.
“It’s either straight ahead misdirection or a deep misunderstanding of basic market dynamics,” he added.
Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon and current owner of The Washington Post, slammed the Biden administration for its attack on gas stations.
Biden blamed your local gas stations (who have about as much power over gas prices as you do) for keeping prices high.
The Democrat demanded gas stations lower their prices “now,” showing how little power Biden actually has over this country.
Bezos, for the second time, openly criticized Biden’s narrative on inflation and our current economic problems.
He explained that Biden must have a “deep misunderstanding” of “basic market dynamics” or he is engaging in “misdirection.”
Which one do you assume it is? Because either is very troubling.
Either Biden doesn’t have a clue about the markets he is regulating or he is blaming gas stations to distract from his own failures.
Bezos knows what’s really going on, though. And so do the rest of us. Biden’s harsh energy policies got us into this problem.
But his administration is unwilling to change that because they will have to admit they were wrong.
So, they have old Joe post these idiotic tweets, hoping Americans are dumb enough to think a gas station controls global oil prices.
And the left wonders why Americans are so ticked off.
Key Takeaways:
- Jeff Bezos criticized Biden for blaming high gas prices on gas stations.
- Bezos accused Biden of “misdirection” or having a “deep misunderstanding” of market basics.
- Under Biden, gas prices have skyrocketed, leading to crippling inflation.
