Biden: High gas prices to last ‘as long as it takes’ for Ukraine victory
NY Post ^ | June 30, 2022 | Mark Moore and Steven Nelson

American drivers will have to endure high gas prices for “as long as it takes” for Ukraine to defeat Russia’s invasion, President Biden told reporters in Spain Thursday.

At the conclusion of this week’s NATO summit in Madrid, the president was asked by New York Times reporter Jim Tankersley about the surging price of oil as a result of Western sanctions on Russia in response to its Feb. 24 assault.

November 2024 can’t come soon enough.

July 2022 can't come soon enough!

“Think on an Afghanistan style time line...”
That puts us past the 2035 planned elimination of the oil industry.

They had chuckleheads like Biden in mind when this word was defined.

And the American people roll over and play dead. Half of them believe this is caused by Ukraine by that is what they were told by a corrupt administration that is out to destroy their country and bring us into communism.

Saw a video clip of him addressing inflation, oil and the cost of food.

His response was, “Russia! Russia! Russia!

And before the Ukraine war?

It is so frustrating having the media in his hip pocket.

In a way, I wish Russia wins and ends this. It will be abundantly clear that gas prices are not going down … well, that’s for the next couple of months. They will go down when unemployment goes up this fall.

Being SPR is at a record low, Gov’t will be buying oil this fall. That won’t help. I’m even surprised by the propaganda angle, seems self-defeating in the long run. Gee, are you starving? That’s too bad, but Ukraine....really?! Naturally they’ll lose support for Ukraine over time, even from their base, with this line.

... the Biden administration scoffed and said that only 3% of our oil comes from Russia.

Normally, I'd call Biden a flat-out liar. But yeah, 3% of our oil came from Russia... until Biden killed domestic supplies that President Trump worked hard to ensure we had plenty of oil. Biden is going to work hard to ensure we have no domestic oil, not even in our Strategic Reserves (and Russia is laughing at Biden).

Statement by a useless piece of used food who hasn’t paid for his own gas out of his own pocket for decades.

They are not writing for rational, critical thinkers, who are grounded in facts.

But if Putin retreats he may become very spiteful and raise U.S. gas prices even more, Joe. Then what?

Ukraine is losing big, they’re non NATO, why so many billions when people are dying on our own border? Oh yeah, Marxist, sorry, lost my mind a little there.

I’ll take a nap now.

Pure insanity. Clearly these totalitarians want to bankrupt the world.

Putin must be really fed up with this crap. After Brandon joined Switzerland, Sweden and Finland to Nato, added jets to Erdogan, and added a new US army base to Poland - while promoting homoglobaltransgayPrideMonth around the globe....
will be no surprise if Putin does actually roll out the nukes.

I don't recall Congress approving this proxy war. But they keep sending billions.
