Quick, someone ask him how Gavin Newsom managed to raise gas prices here in Pennsylvania, too. And the rest of the country. I genuinely want to hear his reasoning, I think it would be entertaining.

My inlaws were complaining about 200+ dollar charges to fill up their trucks and vans with gas.

The same people were telling me that buying a used EV in January 2024 was a bad idea. My car costs about $9 dollars to fill up, and it does that from home.

And people, we haven't even hit a fuel shortage yet. Wait until gas is rationed or flat out not available at most stations, and then see what happens to the price. If you think that isn't going to happen, airlines are already cutting flights due to fuel shortages spiking the price.

PA currently has a Democratic governor, so he'll probably just blame Shapiro

Newsom? I thought Carney did that!
