    Diesel at $5 a gallon is going to concern him a lot in a couple of months. In fact it’s going to be a very great concern for the entire Republican Party.

      I’ve seen as high as $6.79/gal here in the Portland metro area. And we aren’t even the highest in the country, I can’t fathom what it’s like in California

        The US is so weird when it comes to gas prices. Here in Europe 2€/l (which is over 8€/gallon) was normal for diesel even before some of the latest bullshit. $3/gallon is insane

      It is pathetic if egoistic concern over gas prices is the thing that sours MAGA on Trump, after all the shit Trump has done.

        Of course it is the only thing that will change their minds… These people can’t think further than their own wallet at this exact moment in time and maybe a few months in advance.

        Sadly a lot of them will endure this shit because they can’t admit to themselves that they were wrong about Trump. They will keep thinking of ways to ease their feelings of cognitive dissonance, like “Iran was a huge danger and something needed to be done!” or “it’s good for the US since we export oil and LNG”.
