@see_tina_go @RepDonBacon Why lie when a quick Google search proves it wrong? Bacon time and again shows how ineffective and useless he is as a representative.
@toottootchoo @SisterAsphalt @DonJBacon This cannot be a serious tweet in any sense. Appease our enemies, don't care about values of most Americans, only care about the upper class? Literally the Republican party under Trump.
@BiscuitsNGrevie @MAGAWoodworker@AlessaTaketwo@disclosetv If you think the main or only cause is Democrats, sit this discussion out. Inflation is a much more complex issue than most people understand yet want to blame it solely on Biden or corporate greed when it's more than that.
@toottootchoo@DennisPCrawford@DonJBacon 5. Not entirely blameless, but his impact is vastly overstated for the sake of political theater. Anyone who thinks if Trump were in office and things would be significantly better really doesn't understand the situation outside of a partisan lens.
@toottootchoo@DennisPCrawford@DonJBacon 1. Not entirely, but mostly.
2. They were greedy before, don't play dumb.
3/4. Many industries are so heavily consolidated they don't need to lower prices and those that "can" really can't because the cost to produce and sell are higher due to 1 & 2.
@DonJBacon Twitter doesn't give me the characters to explain how wrong/misleading you are. The ongoing pandemic and industry consolidation, particularly among food & oil producers, contribute more than Biden policies. Global inflation and little change from the Fed's response shows that.
@toottootchoo@DennisPCrawford@DonJBacon There are thousands of leases available, but oil companies have been shifting from exploration and production to stick buybacks and have been doing so since 2019. If it weren't for the pandemic starting in 2020, we would have seen fuel price spikes much sooner.
@RepDonBacon@RepHartzler Addressing everything except the actual issue. Also, experts on this issue are saying arming schools actually makes shootings more deadly so maybe use that bipartisanship you obnoxiously boast and work towards legitimate gun reform on top of mental health services.
@Tomaandp @MeggsMuldoon@DonJBacon@HeathMayo That's factual incorrect. Don Bacon voted against legislation that would help address gas prices. But sure, Biden doesn't want to do anything. Like, how is that a reasonable thought? A president who's party is expected to have a tough midterms doesn't want to address gas prices?
@RyanRadia@the_transit_guy The "transit guru" felt the need to keep the middle of the country stuck as if people in Denver, Kansas City and Omaha won't want to take transit.
@DonJBacon Tony Vargas has done more for this district making $12,000 a year than you have with your $174k salary. Voting GOP in November is the worst thing people who care about democracy and decency could do. A GOP majority means a successful Trump coup and death of our democracy. Hell no
@Tomaandp @MeggsMuldoon@DonJBacon@HeathMayo I could apply this tweet to you down to the last period. I have no issue criticizing Democrats and do it more often than I'd like, but the blame on Biden for gas prices is some of the dumbest shit I see people bicker about online.
