Joe Biden has been blasted by Jeff Bezos and China for pleading with gas companies to lower their prices to help inflation-battered American.
The president tweeted Saturday: 'My message to the companies running gas stations and setting prices at the pump is simple: this is a time of war and global peril. Bring down the price you are charging at the pump to reflect the cost you’re paying for the product. And do it now.'
The tweet came amid the July 4th holiday weekend where Americans are paying an average of $4.822 for gas.

One thing leftists are good at: blaming others. Biden reveals this every time he opens his mouth.

1. Shut down the oil and gas industry
2. Blame the companies for "unfair" profit margin
3. Nationalize the oil companies
4. Gas rationing

seeing all the Amazon delivery vehicles on the road, it must be a recognizable expenditure for Bezos having to pay for all of the oil and gasoline for these vehicle, he should have smartened up a long time ago, like in 2015 when #45 was making headway into the presidential campaign and supported our president

We have our sock puppet. China has their own in the form of its media. Where is Chairman Xi's hand when the Chinese media speaks?
Biden and his handlers will say anything at this point to deflect attention. We shouldn't even call the Biden administration or Washington a government anymore. They have their own agenda, and everything else is unimportant to them. The federal government 30 trillion in debt. The country 90 trillion in debt. That's not capitalism. More like a kleptocracy.
From that perspective, is it any wonder that the rest of the world wants to get away from the dollar? It has become unstable.

So now he’s threatening the station owners. I guess if they don’t comply he’ll take them out behind the station and beat them up.

I wonder.....is the sheer cost of doing business and the upcoming fall in profits going to cause some of these woke companies wake up and smell the (now expensive) coffee? I mean, I really had it pretty good when Trump was president but now it's very expensive to say the least. God knows how much Amazon has to pay for gas for its vehicles now and even though Bezos is rich as Croesus it's got to hurt. Then there are the small local companies. They are really hurting.

Re #1, assuming that they are stupid is an error. They are evil, and they INTEND to destroy the economy. This is not an accident of brainlessness, no matter how much it may appear to be that.
This is intentional. Crash the system, then it is more destabilized and easier to take over as a dictatorship.

Bezos, this is what you voted for. This is what your WaPo newspaper propagates every day. Now you are paying employees travel expenses for abortions, are spending millions on politics, but say you cannot pay your warehouse people more for working. Bezos, you need to raise employee pay to compensate them for increased commuting, food, lodging costs. You like socialism, so practice it.

Gas prices must be affecting those Amazon trucks, huh Jeff? You're partly to blame, so suck it up with the rest of US. Some things you're just not above.

I assume from this comment that Bezos has no problem with liberal lies about things he doesn’t think are important.

Inflation is official government policy. Socialism is slavery. Liberalism is a hate crime.
