OK, I lied—I'll say one more thing about ⬆️⬆️⬆️:
You know how we have long said here that gas prices aren't the president's fault, whether it's Biden, Trump, or whoever? Well, that's definitely not true in this case. This is pure, uncut Trump.
I have found there is some front-loading in March-April, some backing off in September, and fairly even distribution May through August.

Apparently. All these responses share one thing in common: they are flung at you anytime they are unable to defend the actual issue being discussed. Once I understood that, it was actually comforting to know that they know they've been beaten, and all they're trying to do is trigger me and follow them down that hole, leaving behind the issue they can't defend. It's Kremlin 101 ****.
“Go touch some grass” is the new fashionable red hat distraction tactic designed to cover the fact that they can’t defend the thing you’ve cornered them on. The irony is that its use merely serves to highlight the distraction nature of the tactic.
Iran is probably the safest topic Rogan could be lost on. I sense that’s the one topic that most red hats part with Trump on. Wake me when Trump loses Rogan on vaccines.
It didn’t make sense that Bari Minutes would release the kind of information taht would implicate the Trump administration until I read the report on the website and they determine the weapon was bought in … drum roll, please … 2024!
If they’d been bought in 2025, Bari would never, ever, ever have released this information.

This is absolutely perfect, and perfectly true.
I would further stipulate that there is nothing red hats love more than when rich people come off as not smart. That’s the coolest thing in the world to them, because it is essentially a rebuke to smart people.
I would bet that if Drew Anderson proves he is much better than Verlander, Hinch and Harris would make him the #5, rather than Verlander for primarily legacy reasons.
Maybe Trump is trying to drive Iran out of the market so the US can gain a greater share of it and achieve greater pricing control? I’m not saying anything like that would work, I’m just saying that might be his thinking, and as we all know, no amount of expertise could ever dissuade him from his own assessment of the situation.
