Correct.

(Well, 90 octane gas, which is the lowest grade you can get here, was just above $7 per gallon last time I passed a gas station, and the top income tax came down last year from nearly 60% to just above 50%, but close enough)

Whatever you do, don't try that in the US!

Bush was a lovely guy. I don't know of anyone who has met him who did not like the guy. His track record as president was decent, but he made a big mistake on Iraq.

But presidents don`t control the price of oil?

Okay got it.

Well, if Trump had not mismanaged COVID and brought the US to a deep recession, oil prices would certainly have been higher since demand would have been a lot higher. The US economy uses a lot of hydrocarbons. So in that respect, he certainly influenced oil prices.

US oil and gas production increased because of huge advances in fracking technology. Trump did not have anything to do with those. US oil and gas production was increasing well before Trump took office as you can see from this chart:

If you go back and read the news from November - and I mean the kind of news that people whose homes don't have wheels read, not what some guy posted on Facebook - you will learn that crude prices started increasing in November for three main reasons:
1. US production was lower than expected (I.e. expectations that supply would be lower)
2. There were positive news about COVID vaccines (I.e. expectations that demand would be higher as life returns to normal)
3. The US dollar was weakening, and oil typically moves in the opposite direction to the US dollar

GW was another globalist piece of $hit., F him and his WMD`s in Iraq, that was a complete lie and got us into a 2 decade waste of time war so his buddies in the military complex could line their pockets.

Dude stick with whatever you have going on in your country, your regurgitation of liberal media facts is gross and highly inaccurate .
You obviously have no idea what goes on in the US.
It`s exactly your liberal thinking that got you your 50% tax rate and $7 gas prices , we`re trying to avoid that mess here in the US you idiot.

every bit of this sham election is in dispute, there are still cases on the docket, Arizona is doing a forensic audit of all ballots and machines, the fact that you think it wasnt a sham shows you have no right to declare rightousness over anything, especially facts.
