California Republicans seem to think Trump has little if anything to do with the energy price spike.
They are good goys, just like all Republicans. They will never talk about ZOG, Israel, or ZOGald Trumpfeld
>California Republicans seem to thinkno
>>533080151They are retarded. Diesel is $6.50 in fucking AZ. Before this bullshit it was down to 2.90.Heil Hitler.Fuck jews.
>>533080151It's the jews.
>>533080151>California RepublicansProbably the most irrelevant demographic in America. Why bother whining about them?
>>533080151nobody thinks this, trump doesn't even try to argue this aside from maybe calling shipping companies pussies for not driving in the strait under fire. all of this is 100% trump's fault and he's going to lose bigly in the midterms for the same reason he beat biden/koala, pocketbook issues. i just hope he throws the people who told him to do this under the bus, since you know it was not trump's own idea to attack Iran.
>>533083954Trump would never dare throw Netanyahu under the bus.
Back when Biden was muppeting, I thought they said the President doesn't control petrol prices -- the State does..?
>>533080151California has so many taxes on gas we were already paying what the rest of the country was earlier this year. Sure gas is up because of the Iran war, but it’s stupid California democrats that make the prices unbearable.
>>533080151Meanwhile Dems cry about human rights but don't support the orange nigger helping Venezuelans and trying to help Iranians. Both parties are partisan retards that gave all pretense of giving any fucks about anything but winning against the other team.
>>533080151>gavin physically changing the gas prices>on a digital sign
This is the biggest oil disruption in history, bigger than 1973 oil crisis. disrupting ~20 million barrels daily—nearly 20% of global consumption—compared to the ~7% impact of the 1973 crisis
>>533080862>>533083682>DA JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZ
>>533083911the 2024 election had a huge red wave in california. not enough to really do anything, but big enough that people took notice. then trump fucked over the entire economy and now california will never, EVER be red. on the bright side white republicans are mass importing jeets to make sure texas goes blue.
>>533084340>This is the biggest oil disruption in history, bigger than 1973 oil crisis. disrupting ~20 million barrels daily—nearly 20% of global consumption—compared to the ~7% impact of the 1973 crisisYes, your statement is broadly accurate based on the scale of the ongoing disruption from the effective closure (or severe restriction) of the Strait of Hormuz amid the 2026 Iran-related conflict.Volume and Percentage Impact~20 million barrels per day (b/d) of oil and petroleum products normally transit the strait (roughly 15 million b/d crude/condensate + ~5 million b/d products). This equates to about 20% of global oil consumption and ~25% of seaborne oil trade.Global oil demand in recent years has hovered around 102–105 million b/d, so 20 million b/d represents roughly one-fifth of worldwide consumption.By contrast, the 1973 Arab oil embargo (triggered by the Yom Kippur War) removed about 4–4.5 million b/d from global supply at its peak. At the time, that was roughly 7–9% of world oil consumption (global supply was much lower then, around 55–60 million b/d).The current Hormuz disruption is therefore several times larger in absolute volume and more than double the percentage impact of 1973.
>>533080151Niggers are just going to ignore that before the Iran war Pilot66 and Valero shut down refineries in California? Not to mention Chevron is about to leave if the new CARB regulations get passed. Newsom ignoring the fact that refineries were leaving the state because of his dumb ass overregulation.
>>533084376>typing this shit when rubio literally admitted on live television that they started the war with iran on behalf of israel
>>533080151To be fair the Iran war is responsible for like $1 of gas price spike but California policies are the reason it's like $2-3 more expensive there than everywhere else
>>533080151because california gas taxes are higher that the price of gas you fucking moron
>>533080151FWIW the immediate increase in gas prices isn't based on the current spot price of oil, which hasn't gone up that much in the United States. They just expect prices to go up and jack up prices now to prepare everyone's anus.FYI they don't lower their prices the same way. Prices only come down when spot prices come down.
>>533084340>This is the biggest oil disruption in history, bigger than 1973 oil crisis. disrupting ~20 million barrels daily—nearly 20% of global consumption—compared to the ~7% impact of the 1973 crisisthe full price effect hasnt even kicked in yet, in 6 months expect gas to be at least 50% higher, probably 100%
>>533080151>>533080862>>533080979>>533083911It's California gas tax.
>>533084603It's still way cheaper to buy gas for your car in California than it is to heat and cool your home somewhere else that gets unbearably hot and cold. I'd be more than happy to pay $10/gallon if I didn't have a $300 energy bill to pay every month.
>>533084176It's more than just taxes and more than just Democrats or Republicans:>Topography>High cost of livingSupply and demand, lots of demand for gasoline in this area blocked off by the Rockies.Yes taxes, but also emissions laws require extra refinement of the gasoline, otherwise SF will go back to being smog capital of the world.
>>533080862Zogblicans
>>533084803A topographic map really does show why we can't lower prices. Even if we drilled and refined, massively imported and refused exportation of oil, California would still have the highest prices. That's way too much demand for an isolated region like this.
>>533080151Yep .Democrats run Commiefornia , and CA has the largest gas taxes per gallon.
Biden shut down Keystone XL pipeline, for his billionaire friends Rockefellers (Exxon Mobil) ,and Warren buffet (who bought a railroad and moved oil via trains) .those billionaire boomers made a few extra billion $, while thousands of small trucking companies went bankrupt because gasoline and diesel went up 2x.
>>533084867>>533080862Hang yourselves , trannies: >>533088245>>533088342
>>533080151In 1980 there were 50 refineries in Cali. There are now 7. California imports its gas from The Bahamas, India, South Korea, and China. CARB has made it impossible to refine oil in California. Then you have to take in the very specific boutique fuel that California requires. This isn't Trump's fault, though he shouldn't have done Bibi's bidding by attacking Iran.
>>533080151wow they must be liars
>>533088489Thats because the dirty open secret nobody talks about is California's oil is close to being depleted.
>>533088587Lack of pipeline maintenance doesn't equal a depletion of oil reserves.
>>533088647>reservesI'm not talking reserves. I'm talking about the oil in the ground
>>533088682>I'm not talking reserves. I'm talking about the oil in the ground
>>533088787Reserves are stored in tanks
>>533088822Reserves are recoverable oil in the ground, idiot.
>>533088342>>533088379The miggers are short circuiting and friendly firing now.
>>533088878That has to be pumped and refined. Reserves are in tanks ready to be used
>>533088245>Society would be better without taxes
>>533088997Absolutely fucking false. Reserves are the oil we know and speculate to exist in the ground that can be recovered. The oil in tanks has already been recovered. How do you feed yourself, much less get on the internet?
>>533089065Nope you're wrong. Remember when Biden opened up and used a third of our reserves after covid
>>533089147Where are the US strategic reserves stored?
>>533080151Just buy an EV like every other Cali nigger.
>>533088992Hang yourself , Taxifornia is being mass bankrupted by Democrats.
>>533089195In tanks (BTW you lost tranny)
>>533084376You're right, Israel starting a war with Iran has nothing to do with Jews. That is antisemitic conspiracy theory.
>>533089195>>533089557In caverns, idiot.
>>533084554If the faggots posting these threads actually lived in Cali they wouldn't be making these retarded statements. Gas was at 4 bucks in the fall and was climbing to $5+ before Trump struck Iran. Orange faggot still caused an extra bump to almost 6 in most places but everything else is Newscum who should be fucking hanged, drawn, and quartered along with his whore wife.
>>533084803>smogisn't it funny how we got rid of all that and more people than ever are fat and dying of cancer at a young age? Smog isn't pleasant but it doesn't cause any long term health problems because health outcomes are worse now if anything. In tough times these regulations should be scrapped due to the meager benefit given by special refinement. Same for regs on older cars. Just sclerotic bureaucracy unable to even make the smallest adjustments
