Except Joe Biden is on camera admitting quid pro quo on Ukraine getting the prosecutor fired for investigating his son and Burisma corruption, which totally hijacks everything you just said.

So a crackhead son is able to run Burisma and be an artist and hold all the other jobs he did....lol. Dude, if you can't see the corruption, then you may be blind, idk. It's right in front of your face lol.

Hunter Biden was OD'ing on crack at public parties in foreign countries and smoking paramesean cheese, and you think there's no corruption involved when he clearly did business with Joe based on his own laptop...lol, without any FBI informant needed.

Send me the link to Joe Biden on Camera admitting to a quid pro quo on Ukraine!!!!!!! I can send you a link on Trump trying to blackmail the leader of Ukraine for an admission that Biden had done something illegal, in exchange for military aid. Quid Pro quo??????? Again, Hunter Biden is not Joe Biden, no matter how you try to twist it, Sorry. And don't forget to send me the FBI information, as it would be greatly appreciated.

Listen kid, you responded to my post that was directed to RobGMN and it was about gas prices under TRUMP in Minnesota. You came in to my post just bashing Trump. Not productive and honestly, kind of childish.

Also, this is a thread... our responses in this thread are post.

You listen, KID. You don't control me or where I can post, as long as I abide by the rules. Who's the child here???????? You didn't have enough control to just ignore my post. Next time, send a text message if you want privacy. This is a public forum, and I can post when and where I want.

Ugh, it's like another of the exact same programmed response is echoing through another mind, thanks to the CIA and news media. I'm just not interested, because I highly doubt there's any genuine care for discussion about amything political, so here's some news:

Wow, triggered much? Everyone has a limited post count in the dome, so people wanna be careful about how many posts they use. I think that's all he's saying was use your posts wisely, because we run out quickly. I could be wrong but what I said about post counts is true. You're super quick to talk mad to people like you know their angle, so don't be surprised with the frustration people have. I mean you come right in saying what I'm about, just because you've been programmed by whatever news you consume to see me that way.

You know the question and you are avoiding it. You keep posting this crap which has NOTHING to do with my question to you. You aren't fooling anyone by acting like you have no clue suddenly. You're the smartest guy on here remember, you have the right answer for everything.

Put down the vodka. It's blurring your vision.

IN MINNESOTA, WERE GAS PRICES LOWER UNDER TRUMP, OBAMA OR BIDEN DURING THEIR PRESIDENCIES????

"Pick a month or five, I'll tell you exactly what you want to know.
But a few tidbits:
In 2019 the national real average price of gas was $3.08-$3.11 per gallon. Today in MY region, it's around $2.73, but the national average for last month was $3.08.
The average real price of gas in the US for 2015 was $3.21. In 2016 it was $2.82
And before you get stupid with your argument (like you tried with the beef discussion), all prices are averages for pump gas, not racing fuel one year, but ethanol-mix another year"
What words confused you? "pick"? "month"? "tell"?
Or did you get lost when they were all bunched up crazy-like in a sentence?

You might have bloodshot eyes today, so I'll say it again:
"Pick a month or five, I'll tell you exactly what you want to know."

The question is the same, now it is in all capitols. Will you dodge it again?

I know you want to be able to select specific days of the month so you can average them in your favor but I gave you the time frame to average from. Grow a pair Rob, tell the truth... for once.

You ask the question and use the phrase "DURING THEIR PRESIDENCIES" which by default requires an average of the prices, but then you whine that I am being picky in choosing some YEARS as tidbits of information.
MAKE UP YOUR FEEBLE MIND. GROW A PAIR; OF BRAIN CELLS.

I am NOT going to list the daily prices for over 2,000 days, then calculate what those prices mean in today's dollars. If YOU want to do that to prove your point, go right ahead.
Since you can't even understand what an average is, I'll ask you again to pick a month or five, I'll tell you exactly what you want to know.

You mean like the same programmed response to defend Trump, even in the face of his own admittance of wrongdoing, and of irrefutable facts?
What kind of CIA mind control makes people defend a man who admits guilt and has also been convicted dozens of time in court?

If you don't want to talk about politics, why are you lurking in a Trump thread? Did you think we were here to discuss his hair, or maybe his fat *** on the golf course?
Or are you some kind of Trump plant who just goes on threads to defend him?

Really guy? Do you have TDS that bad? You can tell how full of ignorant hate you are.

Really guy? You come on a Trump thread trying (and failing) to defend him and trash Biden. Do you have STA (******* Trump ***) syndrome THAT bad? It's amazing how full of ignorant hate you are.

FFS, you accuse Biden of breaking the law when he does something that the law SPECIFICALLY says he should be doing. You complain when you don't get an answer to a question you refuse to ask.
Are you bi-polar, schizophrenic, or both?

Are you two feeding off of each other or sharing the same dementia?

You keep asking for a month or 5 and you will give me what I want... Rob, Mr. comprehension, I gave you a specific time frame... THEIR ENTIRE PRESIDENCIES. Why do you ignore things Rob? You don't have to argue this much.

Awee... @huberoy123 nobody said you can't post here? Why are you so triggered? How are you going to ask me about control and ignoring your post then turn right around in the same breath and tell me you are allowed to post wherever you want because it's a public forum? Does it apply to you and not me kid?

Trump was in office for 4 years. Biden has been in office for 3 years.
How can I tell you a number for the entire Biden presidency when it is only 3/4 done?

PICK A MONTH OR FIVE, BUT NO MORE THAN TWELVE, THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TOI SEE COMPARED. THAT WAY YOU CAN'T ACCUSE ME OF CHERRY PICKING SPECIFIC DATA.

I will wait for the list of months you want compared, and I will run the data for those months.
I am NOT going to do all 96 months for you.

And Obama was in for 8 years.

You can still do an average. But you won't because it proves me right and you can't handle that.

 

[RobGMN Premium Member]

And Obama was in for 8 years.

You can still do an average. But you won't because it proves me right and you can't handle that.

OK, here's your very broad stroke:

Gas averaged $3.19/ gallon under Trump's presidency.
For the first three years of Biden's presidency, gas has averaged $3.73 per gallon.
That is a 16% increase

Wages averaged $53,048 under Trump's presidency.
Wages average $62,275 so far under Biden.
That is a 17% increase.

So, gas is actually cheaper, on average, during Biden's presidency.
The price has not increased at the same rate as wages.

Before you scream "LIES!", here is the math illustrated:
You have a job that pays $1000 a month under Trump. Your only expense is gas, and gas costs you $1000 a month.
You get a 17% raise under Biden, and you now make $1170 per month.
But...gas prices have also gone up, yet they increase by 16%.
Gas is now $1160 per month.
With wages of $1,170 per month but expenses of $1,160 per month, you now have disposable income of $10 that you didn't have under Trump.
That means gas is cheaper.

You have the answer you were demanding based on your requested and very broad data set.
It is obviously not going to be the answer you expect or want to fit your beliefs or chosen narrative.

Now explain to us all where you think the math is wrong, how you think it is wrong, and what you think the correct math is.

That's a bullshit analogy. Also, you could have just stopped at your first paragraph. You know, the one where you admit Trump was cheaper... couldn't leave it alone though, your ego and all. Had to try and spin it to make it look like somehow the economy is better LOLOLOLOLOL.

Broad stroke???? My broad stroke??? Really???? How do gas prices get any more broad than the broad stroke YOU keep using? You know, THE NATIONAL AVERAGE!!! I asked for the average in one state, your state you spin doctor, far left leaning biased twit.

Now you are trying to fold in wages and other crap to keep from telling the truth, I am right. Gas prices in Minnesota were cheaper under Trump than Obama and Biden.

It's not an analogy, simpleton. It's an illustration to show the math principle in real-world use.
And it showed you are wrong.

And just as I predicted, the broad stroke that you demanded proved you wrong, and now you want to say the math is all lies.
So effing predictable, it's pathetic.

I was VERY clear that I am not going to calculate 96 months (or 372+ weeks, or 2,880+ days) worth of stats just so I can prove you wrong yet again. So here are your choices:
1. Pick one or five or no more than 12 months you want to compare.
2. Give me the annual average gas price by year for Minnesota from 2017-present. Pull the data from the SEDS, and provide it. I'm not going to do your homework for you.
Like you said: "Google just answers all the questions". Right? So, go ask Google.

Do one of those I will then give you the answer you are asking for.
Do NOT demand answers form me when you don't know the answer to your own question, and don't even seem to be sure what the question IS.

And I will bet right now that it will still be an answer that proves you wrong, and that you will then cry like a child is "fake news", since that is exactly what I predicted and exactly what you just did.
Hell, I'll GUARANTEE both circumstances.

To be fair, I have the data. If YOU don't, then you shouldn't pose the challenge.
So, you wanna take the bet? Grow some balls, kid. Stand up to the challenge.
