We're lucky though Big Daddy's gonna wave his magic wand in a couple of
months and all prices including food, cars and housing will return to
pre-pandemic levels (which he caused to begin with by mismanaging the
whole thing).

 
Then we will wake up and realize he actually did what he threatened to
do and now all those cheap Chinese goods are no longer cheap, gas is
no longer under $3 for much of the country (sorry BTR)

Won't matter to us. Whether Trump succeeds or fails with gas prices for
everyone else, Newsom and his cronies in CARB have ensured California's gas
prices will continue to soar.

With Newsom's blessing, CARB just voted to require refineries to manufacture a
special kind of gas for California which is not required in any other state--
it has to be some special "low carbon" mixture. This will ensure we can't buy
gas from anywhere else other than California refineries and will instantly
blast prices upward at least $0.65/gallon. This adds up to an additional
$2000/year on the average Californian's gas bill. Add to that the sales tax
increase on gas that automatically goes up every July 1st and the Democrats
have ensured that those "marginalized communities" they're always claiming to
be fighting for will be even further financially devastated.

Thanks Trump.

Thanks, Gavin.
