I’m thinking and hoping that Trump is smarter than this. Raising taxes, ANY sort of raising taxes, will doom his presidency. Cut spending instead.

We pay enough gas taxes in California, thanks to Jerry Brown. WE WANT NO MORE GAS TAXES!

I was getting gas Sunday in Arizona. On the pump next to me a guy said to his wife "It's $1.25 less than California".

Maybe that 25 cents doesn't look that bad to the rest of us. And you guys voted in moonbeam, not us.

President Donald Trump reportedly endorsed a .25 cent gas tax hike <

That is being reported on a number of different news sites. I sure hope Trump hasn’t joined the ‘Everything Can Be Solved By Raising Taxes’ club.

Did you know that the Tax Bill included drilling in ANWR? Did you know that it included repealing the Obamacare Individual Mandate? Why don’t you wait until President Trump actually “betrays” us before getting you panties in a knot?

I’m fine with it, IF, the money is only used for highways (that means legislative changes) and if this toll road crap ends.

I’d much rather pay an extra $250 for my gasoline each year (25 MPG, 25,000 miles), then pay the $3000 or so it will cost if Trump manages to privatize our highways.

Yeah, we all want to see gas up at $5/gal again. Here in WA our one-party government is wanting a ‘carbon’ tax on fuels.

Where is the outrage?

Why expect outrage over an unverified story from questionable (at best) news sources?

Unnamed sources put out in Axios and then CNBC

Breathe. There ain’t no bill. Rumors always are started to rattle the base....they have not proven to be true....not once

For those who never understood decimals, .25 cents is 1/4 of one cent. Not a big deal.

Twenty-five cents, however, is more significant, regardless of whether or not the news is either totally fake, or is being misreported, either intentionally or from gross ignorance of basic math.

How do you want to pay for infrastructure repair? Or do you not want to do any?

Three or four years ago I read the average price at the pump in Saudi Arabia was 0.25 a gallon.

Trouble is government never spends the new taxes the way they say they will. Then they come back for more.
