I don't care about gasoline! The political strategists of the White House apparently turned gray one evening: Donald Trump decided to completely forget about self-censorship at a rally in Georgia. The president, in front of a crowd of supporters, said without hesitation that he didn't care about skyrocketing gasoline prices because American oil workers were "making a damn fortune." The funny thing is that the consultants literally begged the boss not to bring this up. But Trump parodied their panic straight from the stage, brushing aside future screams in the press and gleefully reporting hundreds of billions in energy sector revenue. And the fact that a gallon at gas stations has already approached $4.30 due to the protracted war with Iran is, according to them, temporary difficulties that will soon resolve themselves. The Democrats intercepted such a transition in motion. David Axelrod sarcastically called that speech a dubious final message before the election, Gavin News congratulated oil workers on the Super Profits Holiday, and Pete Buttigieg reasonably mentioned that expensive gasoline only lasts as long as the Republicans are in power. Apparently, those around Trump are confident that his loyal base will forgive him for any directness, and that oil prices, inflated due to the war, will have enough time to go back before the elections. However, the bet is uncertain. If gas station price tags continue to anger neutral voters in swing states, that brazenness could very well cost Republicans control of Congress. - Let's make America understandable again support us.
