How much is your local "Trump at the Pump Tax?"

I think you might be giving DJT credit for doing something that didn't lose money hand over fist, I have my doubts he could teach anyone anything, certainly not something that made Epstein rich

He seems to be pretty good at teaching some weak minded people how to act like HIM.....

Gas is back over $3 a gallon on free soil although my beloved home state of Indiana temporarily suspended its 7% state gasoline usage tax and 36-cent gasoline excise tax.
I was and able to score a $2.799 fill up on my last visit to the home sod before Schrödinger’s War" flared back up.
I mean, IRAN?
NOT KEEPING THEIR WORD?
who knew??

I also scored some <$3 e15 in Nashville on my way back south, but since the API rules over the Southeast US fuel supply I'm back down to E10. and my last fill-up was $3.299.

Since my current daily driver is newer than 2012, it's rated for E15 without needing the magic yellow gas cap.

 

Not sure about acting like him, more being blind to the B/S that dribbles out of his mouth and his fingers on his social platform. For all his blow hard crap about being wealthy beyond imagination, it is reported he couldn't scrape together enough to lodge the bond to appeal the last lot of legal battles that have not gone well for him .....

As far as IRAN not keeping their word, wasn't it Israel that bombed Lebanon before the ink was even put to paper regarding the peace deal?

That's what I get for actually trying to READ the document.
I was under the impression that Israel was not a signatory to the MOU that was drafted to end the conflict with Iran.

If you want to slag Trump for something more legitimate then that maybe try some of his shakedown musings for keeping the strait open?

 

I don't think DJT is all that keen on the straights reopening while the US has oil to sell at top prices to countries that are desperate for it.
DJT went into this war, shoulder to shoulder with Bibi Netanyahu, if he can't stop Israel from bombing sensitive to Iran countries, then he can not offer any sort of a peace deal and he knows it .....
DJT knows he has very little time left to make as much money as he can, and that is all he is interested in, what's in it for DJT .....

T1 Terry

 

If that is his real motive then he's as incompetent at that as he is in running casinos.
You need a much bigger idiot than DJT to sustain oil prices above $120 a barrel.....
It's below $80 at present.

That's somewhat generous.
TDS sufferers usually say that DJT was 'played' by Bibi.

Either way, the Israelis were 'male chicken blocked' from participating in the MOU, just like they were in the idiotic JCPOA - so I do not blame them for not pausing their actions against the terrorists in Lebanon.
All of that is about as predictable as the zany conspiracy theories following a the sudden death of a US politician.

DJT is an 80-year old billionaire with some pretty significant health issues.
Sorry, but I'm not buying into 'money' being his North Star.
He's interested in what every lame-duck US POTUS is interested in:
Legacy.

It's ISRAEL that's under the time clock.
They're seeing actual, for-real, antisemitism in the US that would warm the hearts of a 1930's German leader and they know that the clock is ticking down to their being left 'on their own'......again!
The benefit to this would be even closer cooperation with the Sunni Gulf nations - AND Russia.

People here in the US do not fully appreciate the level of cooperation that exists between those two nations - and Russia is REALLY REALLY riding the struggle bus these days.


Interesting times ahead......
