what are you talking about?
Biden released a billion barrels of gas and gas prices went down.
I mean, in the link Biden was taking credit for corporations' press releases about not gouging prices as severely as they had been for the previous three years when Biden just sat back and watched.
The record oil production that he's so proud of regardless of price is a different thing entirely.
where?
You're saying that Biden was taking credit for the corporations lowering the price of gas, while what happened was that Biden released a billion barrel of oil and then gas prices went down.
No, that's not what I'm saying. Did you even read the headline of the link you posted? I was talking about the content of the link you posted, which doesn't even mention gasoline.
You either didn't read what you linked to, or you have decided that you want to lie about me and my position. And since we've talked before, I'm not going to make the mistake of giving you the benefit of the doubt again. You lied about my position, and since I replied to your diversion about gas prices, you're going to continue lying and pretending that I was always talking about gas prices.
No. Go pull this shit on someone else.
"Go pull this shit..."
facts?
okay.
i will go pull "facts" again.
Thank you for confirming that my decision to not give you the benefit of the doubt was correct.
"Thank you..."
you're welcome!
"...was correct"
you were incorrect, since
biden lowered grocery prices:

and
biden lowered gas prices:

but that's okay! you'll be fine.
I made no claims regarding gas prices, and already addressed your link about grocery prices.
you made incorrect claims about the grocery prices that I corrected.
I've addressed both issues relevant to the original post and your comment, you don't have a lick of evidence.
Why you so salty, crab?
No, you immediately lied about my position and pretended that I was talking about gas prices.
You've done nothing of the sort.
"you immediately lied..."
incorrect, and you still aren't providing any evidence.
"You've done nothing of the sort."
it sounds like you got a little too excited to read the original post.
Claims that Democrats did not address grocery prices and gas are incorrect.
biden directly provided solutions for both of those issues.
I provided the evidence for that.
If you are not talking about the article, and besides your inaccurate claims that I'm somehow "lying" by providing facts, you should try answering my first question:
what are you talking about?
You provided a press release in which the Biden administration took credit for shit they didn't do.
Announcing you've provided facts is not the same as providing facts.
You've done nothing but lie and I'm not going to entertain you any longer. Now be smug and wrong in my absence.
"...took credit for shit they didn't do..."
incorrect. but I assume that's obvious since you still have no evidence while I've provided credible sources.
you take being incorrect real personally.
you were wrong and got told.
those are the facts, Jack!
He did neither, the president does not have those capabilities.
