Hurricane flooded electric cars going up in flames

The average price of gasoline under Biden-Harris remains Obama-like, not Trump-like, costing 44% more on average than under Trump

Gasoline averaged $2.488 per gallon under Trump, 2017-2020 inclusive.

Obama told Gingrich in 2012 that $2.50/gal was a phony promise.

Har-dee-har-har.

Under Biden-Harris gasoline has averaged $3.583 per gallon to date (using three quarters of 2024 at $3.531 as if it were a full year).

 



The average vehicle on the road got older again as of May 2024, 12.6 years, and the average passenger vehicle is a record 14 years old

The average price of a new vehicle 2021-2024 is about $48,436 vs. $38,948 in 2019, an increase of 24%.

 


A bunch of food items made new all time high average prices in September 2024: Beef, beef, and more beef, butter, coffee, sugar, oranges, yogurt, and beer

Did I mention beef?

 











The average price of electricity in the United States remains at the all time high in September 2024, 31% higher than under Trump on average

 


Core cpi inflation measured year over year is now up for a second month to 3.3% in September: Biden-Harris average rate to date is now 4.5% and headed back the wrong way, 128% worse than Trump's 1.97%

 


The very classy song Kamala Harris needed for her campaign rally

Gallup poll not good for the incumbents Biden-Harris: Economy ranked most important as in 2008 when the voters dumped the incumbent Republicans represented by John McCain

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The economy ranks as the most important of 22 issues that U.S. registered voters say will influence their choice for president. It is the only issue on which a majority of voters, 52%, say the candidates’ positions on it are an “extremely important” influence on their vote. Another 38% of voters rate the economy as “very important,” which means the issue could be a significant factor to nine in 10 voters. ...

The current 52% of voters rating the economy as an “extremely important” influence on their vote for president is the highest since October 2008 during the Great Recession, when 55% of voters said the same.

It's not 2008, obviously, where everyone feared a catastrophe with banks failing left and right, homes going into foreclosure, and stocks tanking, but the perception of the economy as lousy today because of high inflation is remarkably high as it was in 2008 as indicated by this poll.

Everyone forgets that the vast majority of the job losses came after Obama was elected in 2008, not before, which took a record number of years to recover, setting the stage for Donald Trump. And pandemic fear drove the election cycle in 2020 and not the economy because of the gargantuan bailouts of the people.

Kicker:

Voters view Donald Trump as better able than Kamala Harris to handle the economy, 54% versus 45%.



By 2032 no more than 29% of new cars can be gas-powered, and Kamala Harris doesn't have to do anything to make it happen except get elected to protect the Biden EPA rule

 

That's one big reason why Kamala says she can't think of one thing she'd do differently than Joe Biden.

 The Environmental Protection Agency’s new greenhouse gas emissions rules require that battery-powered and plug-in hybrid vehicles make up 32% of auto maker sales in 2027. By 2032 no more than 29% of new cars can be gas-powered. Ergo, there will be only one gas-powered model for every two electric cars on dealer lots. ...

Auto makers must spend tens of billions of dollars to ramp up EV production to meet government mandates. The financial pain is growing for companies as sales of gas-powered cars decline, reducing profits available to invest in the EV “transition.” ...

A UAW study in 2019 projected that EVs would kill 35,000 jobs at its plants. “The workers who are making engines and transmissions today, their jobs will be eliminated when we make a transition to electric vehicles,” said UAW research director Jennifer Kelly.

So, Doug Emhoff behaved badly at the office too

 I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

The UK Daily Mail has softened the title over the day today from this:

 

 

 

To this:

Kamala Harris' husband Doug Emhoff faces explosive new allegations from his time at top LA law firm:

Attorneys who worked with Doug Emhoff at his former firm Venable say he yelled expletives, held a men-only cocktail hour in the office, revoked work perks from women who didn't flirt with him, and took only young, attractive associates in a limousine to a ball. ...

'What's worse was he bragged about it to the management at Venable and they were aghast. He's an a**hole. He told them how he "put her in her place". A misogynist, that's who does that.'

Looks like Tim Walz has gotten a little out ahead of Kamala Harris lol


 



Kamala Harris' New Way Forward is the old Biden way

Kamala Harris' messaging continues in disarray:

 


Longtime Democrats Doug Schoen and Andrew Stein speechless after rudderless Biden-Harris administration fails Hurricane Helene victims

The failure of the Biden-Harris administration to take charge of urgently needed rescue and recovery efforts after Hurricane Helene underscores a key question: Who is really running this White House?

Right now, we have no clear answer.

President Biden’s and Vice President Harris’ cavalier indifference to the Americans fighting to survive in the disaster zone has left us — both longtime Democrats — speechless. ...

It took six days for the White House to activate a paltry 1,000 military members to help deliver assistance — even though three of America’s premier military divisions with critical search and rescue experience are based within just a few hours of the hardest-hit areas in the Carolinas and Georgia.

Compare that to President George W. Bush, who ordered nearly 10,000 troops to the Hurricane Katrina disaster zone in 2005.
