I'm so glad he is fixing important things like this, instead of wasting his time on housing and food and energy! /s

I went to the store today and I’m afraid that Eggs still cost the same as a week ago.

In fact, it just went up where I live

But all of these things are now the greatest ever because Trump is president. We’re actually lucky they’re not more expensive/s

I drive a 2005 Honda Civic, I for one am absolutely cackling watching these chuds roll up in their 30 foot long 12,000 lb Ford Brodozer, it costs $80 to fill that thing up when fuel is cheap. Once it hits $5 or more a gallon those trucks are toast. Meanwhile I'm rolling away with $30 in gas to fill my tank and plans to get an EV.

Wait till those Canada tariffs start on 1 Feb. It'll go down even less.

oh come on, give trump a couple days to find the lever labeled "Fuel Price"

I dunno about that, mate. He said he might never have found Biden's note that he left for him if he hadn't been reminded about it.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

Well i mean, food is less important that defining gender!

You mean large reproductive cells?

6 fucking dollars for a dozen eggs this weekend. No more bacon and egg sandwiches. Now it's bacon and bacon sandwiches.

Wait... I'm not seeing a downside here.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 6 points 2 months ago

Soon we'll be eating bread sandwiches.

[–] slingstone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

You can afford bacon?

those reduced taxes on the rich and no regulations should trickle down eventually (into the local water supply)

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Oh yeah, trickle alllll over my face

What are you taking about? He's full on on energy. He expand drilling in the US so oil companies can produce more oil, even though we already have a ton of oil in the US. Increase supply of something that is already abundant so that they can sell it at a lower cost at the pump. Genius!

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Wait a minute! Why don't they increase the drilling, AND raise the price at the pump! That's more smarter

[–] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

It’s so when he fucks relations with Canada and Mexico, our largest crude oil suppliers, US big oil will have the resources to gouge us without supply constraints.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Oh he has an energy plan. Unfortunately.
