Clearly, you've never golfed in your life. This is 100% normal, if not expected, at least 8-10 times per nine.
Lol. Biden ain't running anything . He is a senile old man with increasing decline likely due to dementia. He is a puppet. My dad had dementia in his last years of his life and Biden reminds me of my dad before he passed. Just say'n.
This border crisis is spot on how he is a great manager. The reason the facilities are lacking is not because Trump dismantled it, it's because Trump worked with Mexico and Central American countries to curb illegal migration..So , we didn't need to have all this infrastructure. Then Biden gives a green light ,come one ,come all and voila we got mass migration, human trafficking, kids in cargo containers, drug cartel coyotes raping women and violence. That's how Biden does it. His policies are putting women and children in harms way.. Yep , running the country superbly.
Biden has been present for 100 days plus. So far the border crisis that was under control is a mess and gas prices/ food prices have gone up, but he’s doing a great job! Keep telling me how gas prices have nothing to do with the president. Lol. Additionally, he’s a frail and weak leader.
Oh.., but those Trump crazy tweets!

Trump oversaw the worst electoral outcome for a sitting President since Hoover. The GOP lost by nearly 8 million votes nationwide. They're slowly morphing into a soon to be dead national party.
Thank God for President Biden. Will take a while to clean up Trump's awful mess, but he's done great so far. Not even going to mention the fake border crisis. Asylum is legal. Let these folks go through the process. I don't care that they're here. Why do you?
Yeah those 1:85 to 2.15 gas prices and energy independent for the first time in 50+ years sucked. And the border problems being mostly under control and the Obama child cages running well below capacity sucked. The best economy of a lifetime before Wuhan Flu hit sucked. Operation Warp speed which got out the vaccines that Biden administration is now claiming all the credit for sucked.

Gas prices were $2.182 in November of 2016 when Trump was elected. In Feb of 2020 they were $2.442. Or a 12% increase. Gas prices have nothing to do with the president. They are currently higher due to increased travel demand following the pandemic.
Your biden bucks will buy you 600 gallons of gas. Enough to drive a hybrid 100 miles per day for a year. Joe, the savior, Biden basically made your gas free. You're welcome.
Never have seen a stimulus check. Only gas prices well over $3.00 and an increase in fried chicken prices. Thank you savior!
Oh, sorry I didn't realize you made good money with how much you bitch about 30 cents per gallon of gas. I assumed that extra cost was life altering with how much time you spend on it.
Last I heard was that it was more like 70 cents a gallon plus. By the way, it’s often the rich people who bitch about these things.
It’s up $1.10 from April of last year during the pandemic. Up about 40c over immediate pre pandemic. Last time it was this high ($2.88) was first week of May 2019.
What was your special ethanol free gas running in May 2019? Gas prices are one of the most deflated and controlled prices. We are currently running at prices lower than we were 16 years ago. There is literally no other item that is at a 2005 price level.
Snark aside, do you think higher energy prices are generally a good thing? That's obviously a bigger burden to deal with for low income people. Do you have a solution to that, or should they just figure it out themselves?
There are probably 5 different ways this conversation could go, but it has to start somewhere: is it a good thing that energy prices have remained relatively stable over the last 15 years?
Why? Wouldn't that be an ideal situation? Nobody needs to buy energy so it becomes cheaper to purchase it. How is that not a win-win?
Depreciable assets that age or are overcome by technology are far different from consumer staples.
Feb of 2020 was before Covid took off out of control, and the economy was hitting on all cylinders, one of the best economies of the last 100 years. Even in 2016 after 8 years of Obama the economy was growing slowly and still pretty mediocre. The demand today is still way below where it was in Feb 2020. People all over are still staying in much more than normal, a Large percentage of those working are still working from home.
12% in 3 years under trump is 4% per year, with a booming economy. Biden has almost 20% in 2 1/2 months.
That being said 50 to 55 per barrel and gas between $2.35 and $290 is likely the sweet spot where the oil companies can make money with fracking, and the US can produce enough to be energy independent long term, and we export natural gas and oil/gasoline rather than import it.
You are thinking too much into it. Gas prices have fluctuated between $2 and $4 a gallon for the better part of 2 decades. Under 4 presidents. We are in a post pandemic bump phase. Prices aren’t any higher now than they were at certain times in 2018 and 2019. Cheering or booing a president for a gas price is pretty stupid.
It’s more than the price, though. It’s the EOs and policies that will drive the price higher that have not yet been felt in the markets.
Heard the same thing with Obama. It never came to fruition and he left office with the lowest gas prices since 2004.
He got lucky that Russia and OPEC got into a price war and fracking had some miraculous results. Unilaterally ending drilling on federal lands and taking a bunch of other supply-limiting measures domestically is going to have effects that reach far beyond the simple price of a barrel of oil. Eventually success in spite of yourself turns into the failure it always should have been. Much like winning football games without a defense or an inside run game.
A lot of the price increase on gasoline is nothing more than the devaluing of the dollar. I won't get too concerned until it hits 4 bucks.
Doubt it. Maybe a year from now. We haven't had enough supply cut off by the EOs to force prices that high.
