 Of course Jan 6th committee on the list ! as they more upset with those defending American democratic process   Then they are with the man who tried to destroy it.
 
 Revengeful cowards just feeding their gutless gullible base !
 
 Absent from their list
 
 Inflation, the economy, , gas prices  all things that would benefit all Americans…. But they can’t allow that to happen prior to a presidential elections !   For fear Democratic’s may be seen as the cause and get credit . So they will happily sit back and watch Americans suffer
 |  The GOP has no plan on gas?
 
Yes they do.  Here it is.  Drill, drill, drill.
 
"Inflation, the economy, , gas prices  all things that would benefit all Americans…"
 
If these are things that would benefit all Americans, and the democrats control the white house and congress, then why isn't the left doing anything to address those things? |

 |  pricing for gas is largely speculative. Meaning, if the market speculates a president will 
drill like crazy, that will 
push down prices. 
 
I’m sure you know tons and tons about finance and economics.

 |  Maybe for crude oil.  
Will the next POTUS mandate a drilling target? How about a requirement to use the previously allocated permits before they open some sensitive federal areas? 
Limit exports of oil drilled in the US?  
Increase refining capacity? That seems to be the bottleneck (down ~1 mil a day or so since COVID) on gas prices right now (and why prices for gas/diesel are higher compared to previous times oil/barrel was at a similar price point). 
 
Exxon et al.,'s profits are pretty dandy right now. I don't see them making the investments in refining (and no, it isn't a call to make it state controlled energy)... |
