Gas prices were around 89 cents to a little above a dollar back in 1990 in TX. Who were the Venezuelan regime back then?
Remember that healthcare subsidies and/or universal coverage is too expensive, but we have money for whatever the **** this is.
Damn straight breh. It feels so good actually. We’re going after those Scamalis next in Minnesota, even you can support that.
This is accurate. People who work in the oil and gas industry know that this will not bring down costs here in the US. If anything the O&G executives wants gas prices HIGHER than they are now because right now the prices are teetering on the precipice of companies needing to lay off workers here in the US. My dad was forced to retire during the first admin when gas prices were just a little bit lower than they are now. Securing the Venezuela oil reserves only benefits the executive level of the global oil companies. It’ll create jobs abroad because Venezuelan oil will be used to eventually export to developing countries. Especially Africa. However there will be no economic benefit to the US and its unlikely in the long run to do much of anything for the people of Venezuela, and in the short run puts their country in danger of civil war, and insurgencies.
I would have given that Depends wearer with broccoli for brains props too, but chances for that are none and slim.
Considering how fragile Trump's ego is, this can not be ruled out ... 'Crazy and disproven' MAGA conspiracy likely fueling Venezuela invasion: analysis Bulwark Managing Editor Sam Stein and Publisher Sarah Longwell say Donald Trump’s inconsistent reasoning for invading Venezuela and kidnapping its president suggests other ulterior motives behind the attack. “He said in his Fox interview,” said Stein, speaking on a live podcast of the president’s Saturday morning press conference on the invasion. “… This gets to motivations and obviously there’s a question of [Venezuela’s] oil or is it the drugs. He did notably compare Maduro’s election to his own 2020 loss. … It seems wild but there’s … been this longstanding election conspiracy in MAGA circles that Venezuela was involved in rigging the election in 2020. It's crazy and disproven but could it be a motivation?” Last November, Trump’s federal investigators began interviewing people pushing unfounded claims that Venezuela helped steal the 2020 election from Trump. Two conspiracy theorists, according to the Guardian, briefed the U.S. attorney for the district of Puerto Rico, W Stephen Muldrow, and shared witnesses and documents with officials, according to multiple sources. Critics said the bogus investigation revealed the willingness of Trump’s justice department to make itself a major weapon in Trump’s efforts to rewrite the history of his 2020 failure, while also buttressing arguments to take military action against Venezuela. “If that is part of Trump’s calculus then that is Trump’s addled, insane, conspiracy mind making it up,” answered Longwell. “It’s funny because it’s Jan. 3. We are up on the anniversary of the Jan. 6 attacks resulting from Trump’s taking that [stolen election] lie and shoving that conspiracy theory to his supporters and the Republican Party.” Longwell added that Trump offers “no consistent position for taking Maduro out,” while also pardoning proven drug kingpins including Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández just a few months ago. “[Since] there [is no] direct American benefit from this then what you have left is Trump’s weird grievance over his belief that Venezuela interfered in his reelection and the cosplaying he loves to do looking like a tough guy on the international stage,” Longwell said. “Who can make sense of what’s going on in Trump’s head?”
Tampon Tim better watch his goofy ass. I predict a 2 am raid on his governor mansion in Minnesota, better wear your goofy socks while they’re dragging you out of your bed doofus. Lol
You’re grasping for straws breh. Trump should be the king and the emperor of the USA for life right now.
Might have heard of this little thing called "inflation"? $.89 March of 1990 equals $2.24 in November of 2025. This is from the CPI calculator from the US Government (Bureau of Labor Statiatics). Conversely, $.89 in November 2025 was worth $.35 in March 1990.
Keep in mind - he has been in power one calendar year. Look back over the last 12 months and imagine how it will be in another 12-24 months. If he wins the midterms, the SCOTUS won’t even consider stopping him.
