And 3 weeks after President Trump took office, my local gas prices are around $2.60.

That's nice. Of course, they'll be rising soon, despite Trump asking the Saudi's to raise production. He seems to be getting a similar response from the Saudi's as he got from US oil companies, that have no interest in increasing oil production.

And it could get worse if the tariffs against Canada go into effect, or the Canadians start shipping the oil to China and the EU that previously was sold to the US.

I seem to recall the Biden "I did that" stickers showing up on gas pumps roughly 3 weeks after Biden took office.
They only got worse as time went on.

Voters' views of the Democratic Party and Republican Party set new records since the Quinnipiac University Poll began asking voters about the parties in November 2008.​
In today's poll, 31 percent of voters have a favorable opinion of the Democratic Party, while 57 percent have an unfavorable opinion. This is the highest percentage of voters having an unfavorable opinion of the Democratic Party since the Quinnipiac University Poll began asking this question.​
Forty-three percent of voters have a favorable opinion of the Republican Party, while 45 percent have an unfavorable opinion. This is the highest percentage of voters having a favorable opinion of the Republican Party since the Quinnipiac University Poll began asking this question.​
This marks the biggest favorability advantage the Republican Party (43 percent) has held over the Democratic Party (31 percent) since the Quinnipiac University Poll began asking these questions.​
Their lowest approval rating in the history of the poll.

And it is not getting better - the more they try to dehumanize Trump and the Republican Party - the lower their popularity goes.
The DNC still can't figure out how they lost this election. They seemed so certain it was a slam-dunk for them. I guess that happens when all you do is live in an echo chamber.

And it appears it may happen now, with those that control the flow lowering production. Again, this is doubly true if Trump puts tariffs on Canada and Mexico, or if Canada -- deciding trade with the US in unreliable -- decides to sell their oil to China. While Trudeau mentioned the tariffs would be damaging to Canada, if they switch to China and the EU being their main trading partners, it would mitigate the effect of the tariffs.

But this is a distraction from my point -- you (or at least most Republicans here) had no issue criticizing Biden after three weeks. So why should people not criticize Trump after three weeks? It seems you have a double standard, since you seem to imply you had no issue with criticizing Biden after three weeks.

I didn't necessarily criticize Biden, I thought it was Harris running the show. Biden, from my perspective, had severe cognitive decline and his family should have been credibly charged with elder abuse.

Give it time. I have no idea what gas prices or the economy will look like many months or a year from now. Who knows if the tariffs actually occur?

Still, I never beard about reports of Biden trying to flush bad news down the toilet. So there’s a thing in his favor.

The “Jiggle-the-handle” President?

It’s no fallacy lol and Trump isn’t a failure. He’s getting work done!
How are egg prices these days?

Getting work done doesn't mean successful, you know. Might be the guy just isn't very good at his job despite his best efforts. Maybe we should give a participation trophy?

Seems dangerously close to the rules here against "fake news" posts, but I guess when there's no convincing argument that sort of risk might be worth it versus the alternative.

Showing Donald's promises to reduce grocery prices on day 1 have failed. Thanks for asking.

Endlessly repeating the same thing over and over doesn’t make it valid. Lol
