Social media is filling with anger over gas prices while officials keep saying the economy is fine

by

Gas prices are straight up the biggest flashpoint right now.

Trump is out here prepping everyone to accept prices doubling if oil hits two hundred bucks a barrel and he just shrugs like it is worth it. Clip shows him basically telling families to suck it up while they are already canceling trips and stretching every dollar.



Bernie Sanders is hammering the jump from $2.98 to $4.55 a gallon. He ties it straight to the Iran situation and says working families cannot take it while billions go to war instead of people. Replies are full of raw anger about groceries housing and everything else going up too.

Gas in Dallas Texas just hit $4.18 even though it is the biggest oil producing state.

People are losing it in the replies calling it insane and tying it to bigger economic pain with consumer spending about to crack after months of layoffs. Lots of mockery about officials acting like everything is fine.
