The real joke here is that it looks like the DCCC got their idea for their chart, which went up in the afternoon, from Matthew Yglesias, who posted a similar chart this morning showing the steady fall of gas prices since President Biden “fixed inflation.”

Your weight loss after cleaning out lint out of your belly button would look great on that scale.
Good enough for an extra Snickers bar, with a diet Pepsi of course, to celebrate

From the same administration that saved you $0.16 on your 4th of July cookout after jacking the cost of groceries, now they are saving you $0.02 a gallon after doubling the price of fuel…what selfless heroes. We’d be lost without them. Thank you Brandon!

Even liberal outlets and individuals are just savaging the DCCC for putting out that chart.

And the Republic Congressional group is absolutely sprinting with it. I suspect that they're going to use it to great effect in the runup to the 2022 midterms.

I was thinking some aide posted it without looking at it too hard, but someone had to zoom in the graph to make it in the first place.

I think maybe the DCCC expected that their moron base would just look at the pretty drawing with the "big" downward curve, and not the numbers. It's a pretty great example of the "lying with statistics" theme, especially if you expect an uninquisitive audience.

Considering that Biden isn't worth 2 cents in the first place - - -.  >:D

Crude has been roaring back as Omicron is being assessed and reassessed. Above $71 a barrel again and showing now signs of slowing down.

I guess Brandon's 2 cents is all for naught.

Whenever a dem uses the word fair it usually means most of us are about to get screwed.
