President Biden admitted during a CNN town hall Thursday night that he has no immediate solution to the problem of spiking gas prices and suggested that Americans would not start seeing relief at the pump until next year. “My guess is, you’ll start to see gas prices come down as we get by and going into the winter–I mean, excuse me, into next year, 2022,” the president told moderator Anderson Cooper at the Baltimore event. “I don’t see anything that’s going to happen in the meantime that’s going to significantly reduce gas prices.
“I must tell you, I don’t have a near-term answer,” Biden added before musing

Maybe try doing the exact opposite of every move you’ve made since you got sworn in, Joe.

I saw some little seaside town in California (known for high gas prices I guess) hit $7.50 a gallon today for regular. That's pretty extreme, but still insanely high due mostly to Comrade Potato Head's policies.

Biden admits he doesn't have any answers because Obama hasn't told him what he can say.

Two years ago when Trump was President gas was half the cost and the US was a petroleum exporter.
Leave it to the democrats to thoroughly screw things up!

Quid Pro Joe's solution to high gas prices is for us to get an electric car. High food prices just eat the bark off of trees. Don't like the border crisis. Learn how to say I surrender in Spanish. Don't like me. Take a gander at my replacement.

Quit lieing Joe. For the democrats, high gas prices are not a problem, they are the solution. They have been trying to run up gas prices since Obama.

Biden admit's..."I don't have anything that could even be nearly termed as... an Answer...not short term, not long term. I think the correct term is, I got Nuffin"

Joey had no problem with a near term answer to shutting down the US's energy companies, did he? All he has to do now is reverse course and the problem is solved. Is he that stupid? The answer is yes.

It is not your problem, Joe. We have oil and gas guys that have spent their lives in the oil and gas business that can solve the problem---if the government would get their boots off their necks.

In the Senate, he could act like a big man and had 99 other senators to hide behind when things got too difficult. Now, he's front and center with no one to use for camouflage and he doesn't know how to deal with it. Lump his dementia on top of it and we've got a YUGE problem!

Oh, I'm sure the demented buffoon will come up with some lying nonsense (repeated over and over by the useless media) a couple of months before next years election.

#1, yes. Gas prices will reduce slightly due to decreased demand due to the arrival of cooler weather. Biden will grab the credit without offering a reason. This may or may not happen before the Thanksgiving holiday travel spike. Once Putin and Opec realize that they have us over a barrel, pun intended, prices will climb higher in early 2022.

We need a “Dementia” version of the game Clue, custom made for Joe with one answer. It’s US oil, it’s here, and it goes in the pipeline. Prices of gas would drop by Monday if it were announced by today.

Obola didn't have a 'magic wand' and BiteMe doesn't have an answer - but President Trump apparently had both based on his track record in office, and yet the uniparty conspired to cheat him out of the election. Shows where the uniparty member's loyalties lie, doesn't it?

Biteme's intelligence is a reflection of the intelligence of those who voted for him. They all walk around in a haze and critical thinking and rational thoughts are completely foreign to them.

#9 is correct, it's always been the plan, even Obama didn't mind the higher gasoline prices. He didn't like how fast they went up is all.
Problem, there are thousands of government agencies who have a multitude of various vehicles that are now suddenly seeing a spike in their budgets they didn't plan for.
I remember, the Pentagon had a $3 billion increase, back in Obama administration when the gasoline prices "suddenly" increased.

The grifter who never worked an honest day in his life and pretended to have a plan for everything now tells Americans they'll just have to bend over and take it. And it appears that we love it; take the shot or be fired, watch your savings evaporate and salary eroded, see your community flooded with crime and illegal aliens, freeze in the dark because we now have a Green New Deal, don't bother to vote because the outcome is predetermined. We've quite happily agreed to it all, so when they come to round up the guns, we'll go for that too, all on our Great Leap Forward.
