There is no doubt they did everything they could to make things financially painful for us so they could blame repubs. Although both sides are corrupt and broken and only in it for themselves.

So the democrats in office will bring this how?
They did what exactly?
Want to know why gas is expensive? It's because the president decided to start a war in the middle east and that interrupted global oil shipping. It also got a lot of oil infrastructure over there blown up as well.
The tariffs were 100% on trump.
The republicans control the senate.
The republicans control the house.
The republicans are 6-3 in the SC.
The president is a republican.
Exactly what power lever did the democrats pull? They don't control any of them.

Yesterday, regular was down to $3.08 and diesel was down to $4.99 here in Fort Mill, SC at Quik Trip and Murphy’s by me. At Sam’s Club in Rock Hill, SC regular was also down to $3.07.
Strange, how fuels magically have come down this past week, with nothing changing except for the mid term elections blowout…

Then what lever did they pull to reverse it ?
And…this morning Sam’s Club regular down in Rock Hill, SC dropped to $3.03. I expect that QT and Murphy’s will also drop lower today.

Jeee Zussss…. The Republicans were running the White House, the Senate, the House, the Supreme Court. And what did they do? Not much. (You should be asking “Why were they so powerless to push their agenda?”)
So now we’re supposed to believe the MINORITY party Democrats stymied their best efforts somehow? Damn those all-powerful, unstoppable Democrats! Even when they’re not in power they still rule with impunity and an overbearing force. Sure.
We got where we are today because the Republicans had no plans. And the “promises made” were flipped one-eighty and gobbled up by the supplicating loyalists who will believe anything just to feel part of something.

Was it the one in the voting booth?
Not saying I like them. I'm saying they are more stable in the sense that they are predictable.
For example, the tariffs.
Let's say you are a big corporation, huge factories, lots of workers. Getting raw materials lined up takes significant planning and time lines. If you are importing steel, that takes months of planning. When the president decides to arbitrarily add tarrifs, then cancel them, then double them from the initial tarrif rate all over the course of a few months it makes it essentially impossible to plan out your resources with reasonable certainty. This isn't just for steel, but all imported goods.
It's easier to plan if you know the market conditions, favorable or not. It's not about good or bad, though that does matter, it's about certainty.
Trump is anything but certain. So yes, stability actually lowers prices.

So, I've seen this first hand. I work in procurement at a large multi national corporation.
This has definitely impacted my job. It has made things harder. It has lead to measurable cost increases.. I am personally responsible for managing tens of millions of dollars in corporate spend. I've seen it myself, this has led to significant uncertainty and countless meetings and calls.
The private citizen in myself, I think it's important to re-shore manufacturing to America. I don't want to depend on volatile countries many of which hate us or would exploit this leverage over us in critical sectors if presented with the opportunity to do so. Especially in a likely future war scenario we need our own domestic supply chains and production.
So yea... I want domestic production, but in a controlled methodical, predictable manner. Not what appears to be haphazard yo-yo actions that are inconsistent and unpredictable.
This sums it up perfectly.
The lever of: "once we have some say in government policy in January, it won't be shifting all over the place like a random number generator."

You think the side that says "we should nationalize SpaceX because we don't like Elon" is the one that business calls stable ?
The side that can't imagine a tax on business they don't like, unless Trump proposes it ?

So, what the people really want is a divided government that can't really get anything done ?
Man, they're *so close* to figuring out the real solution.
Good News - Diesel and Gasoline Prices Set to Collapse in Roughly 60-Days - The Last Refuge
Take heart, we only need to wait approximately 60-days until we see a major price decline in diesel and gasoline prices in the USA. Once the midterm election is over, prices will begin their retreat with the finished collapse mid-January. The non-pretending reality exists within a generally...

Okay, both you and @SonOfSun are reading what you want to read out of my post. My point was simply that the Democrats did strongly in the midterms while blaming the right on the cost of living while at the same time doing everything they can not to improve it. If they were truly for the people they would have worked harder to improve things, but they didn't want to because that would mean they likely would have lost the elections. They encouraged things to stay badly so that they could win the election. I'm not saying anything positive about what the Republicans did or didnt do; which I stated above. I can find wrong at the Republicans did over the past two years. But that wasn't the point I was making. It was how, in this case, the left was talking out of both sides of their mouths just to win the election.

One thing the left has proven to be good at time and time again, stripping us of our God given rights.

Between Tuesday and Thursday I saw a 75 cent per gallon drop.
So why are the prices falling now and not in January when they have their say? They don't have any say now so what is behind the price reductions?
