Hey, Eighteen Cents Is Eighteen Cents

Biden is a gas

Within Joe Biden’s lifetime, the average price of a gallon of gasoline in America has gone from 20 cents to over $5. But now Grandpa Joe is promising to save us from the harmful policies of, er, President Biden.

Now you’re gonna save a whole 18 cents per gallon, maybe!

CSPAN @cspan

.@POTUS: "By suspending the 18-cent federal gas tax for the next 90 days, we can bring down the price of gas and give families just a little bit of relief. I call on the companies to pass this along, every penny of this 18 cents reduction, to the consumers."

You know things aren’t going well for the Democrats when the leader of their party has to admit that taxes are bad.

This is almost as funny as the time Biden bragged about all the money he was saving you on the Fourth of July:

That’s not 16 cents per item, or per serving. Just… 16 cents. Total.

Wow!

If you thought saving 16 cents on a July 4th cookout was something, you must be over the moon about saving about that much on a gallon of gas. But you don’t actually believe that, because nobody believes that. Least of all the people who are paid to pretend to believe that.

And look how ineptly this old fossil tries to shift the blame for his ruinous policies:

“I call on the companies to pass this along, every penny of this 18 cents reduction, to the consumers. This is, there’s no time now for profiteering.”
