So Trump is still telling us how its only our imagination that everything we buy cost more and every house hold bill is increasing every month thanks to his magical lowering of inflation.
And it’s still cheaper than when Biden was in office. Will the winning ever stop? 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Lives live lies lives.How in the hell is anybody get in there?By lying
I can guarantee you that there are more than 5 Americans killed in this WAR. i would bet over 100!! They are lying to the American people! They know if the American people knew the TRUTH they would demand to end this WAR immediately!!! Our country has been destroyed!
SO TIRED OF ALL THE LIES…!!!!
LIES!!! LIES!!! LIES!!!
GOD PLEASE HELP US!!! 🙏 🙏 🙏
😢😢😢
ALWAYS LIES, LIES, LIES from this administration! And she does it with a huge Christian cross around her neck!!! That is blasphemy!
Lies
GOD HELP US!!!!! 😢😢😢
Sorry… they have plenty of money! They are just taking advantage of the American consumer. Come up with a better answer.
Proof that working at the White House ages you fast. She looks old holding that press conference 😂
She didn't deny the TEMPORARY impacts…
Cheap gas with a NUCLEAR IRAN vs TEMPORARILY high gas prices to as the result of conducting a war to PERMANENTLY cripple Iran's ability to threaten global energy supply ever again…
Gas prices increased .50 cents a gallon in less than 48 hrs in my area after the US struck Iran.
So CBS brought in this woman an expert apparently to say how the war is affecting gas prices and how terrible high prices are for manufacturing three years ago gas prices for 430 a gallon on average in the United States what are they now $3.20 a gallon. Yes it’s went up from a very low price. Why is it lower now than it was three years ago? Why are you miss directing the truth is it’s lower now because of now we are allowing drilling and we’ve allowed unnecessary regulations to be reduced, which is caused fuel prices to go lower. If fuel prices are critical for manufacturing. Why wasn’t it critical three years ago? I don’t mind if you want to lie or tell lies or say you have no agenda and then do that that is terrible. Yes it is it causes it prices to go up when fuel cost more but it didn’t do that apparently three years ago ABC CBS NBC U are terrible news or organizations anybody with a discerning mind can see that your propaganda outlets.
CBS FAKE NEWS. Gas prices historically go up in the summer months. This is normal . California is the only state thats gas went up due to Failed Democrat polices causing 2 major oil companies to exodus the state.
Gas where i live went up 15cent over night
Thank you president trump
King Reza Pahlavi is our only leader in Iran
Maga cultists: "No, prices didn't go up and it's not a war" 🤡😄
It won't impact rich politicians, so those rich politicians think it won't impact anyone.
No oil comes from the Middle East. Gas prices are high because these gas companies know that you will pay the price and that you're too stupid to know that America gets 70% of her oil from within. No news is going to tell you that though. Cue the Hysteria! aaah.
Karolying,MAGA PUPPET,aka Trump lying mouthpiece.This administration lie after lie scheme after scheme distraction after distraction cover-up after cover-up after cover-up after cover-up of the Epstein files and much more.Congress the blood is on your hands for enabling this bogus administration.
The most incompetent and corrupt government in the history of the United States… and possibly the world… disgusting and vile human beings… trumps needs to go and republicans need to be punished
Republicans own this war. Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Tick…tick…tick…
They have no reason to be concerned because they don’t spend their own money to survive on the daily basis. Lies lies and so many more lies
"War" never disrupts a country's economy….idiots.
That’s because Iran blocked Hormuth. The U.S. will get it reopened very soon.
Fake news people fake news
My gas went up 30 cents a gallon in just 2 days. I do not believe anything coming out of the WH
Gas has already gone up 30 cents where I live…
Heating oil prices went up to $4.19 back east from $3.29 in a week.
Wait and see in another six months
The gas prices are going up in the US because the war is already costing the US $1 billion a day. Who do u think pays for that
Corporate greed
Did know there were roughly 900k abortions performed last year in the US. What a great place. We better make sure our culture survives. Were really great people.
Too late! It already has! And it will effect fertilizer and shipping prices, too!
They done gone from stealing oil to stealing countries.
More Like Operation Demonic Lust.
She said plane tickets will be cheaper as oil prices rise? This woman is talking out her hoohah… they’ll say anything with an even tone knowing a lot of people don’t think.
Gas just went up a buck ! WTF ????
Karolyn’s always defaults to her honest answer of We have not studied that chapter her in my 9th grade government class, so no it’s not going to affect the economy, of South Africa and the sfrican peoples during the economic cycles of America in American prices and gasoline groceries for the children of South Africa and Carolina during that part of the year …. 😱😱😱😂🤣😂😈💀
🤔
Leavitt and (t)rump really think that Americans are super stupid, not so. Cult supporters are the only ones buying it.
Wait till the midterms, the people will make it clear!!!!!!
🎉🎉🎉🎉😢😢😢
Lie without shame. That's what they are good at.
So who's paying the $1 billion a day that this war is costing the US so far
FOLLOW THE MONEY !!!
Trump "believes" the economy….. Blah blah blah
