When President Barack Obama took office, one of the predictions made by the Republicans was that gasoline would go up over $4 under Obama. When he left office, gas was selling for about $1.80. President Trump has been in office about 100 days and the price is now up to $2.45- $2.65 a gallon. I'm not saying it is Trump's fault, just extremely coincidental.
Now Trump is going to present his budget and, you can bet, his rich buddies will get massive cuts while the rest of us support that effort.
It appears this budget effort will be similar to his health care plan. We could be in trouble — just sayin'.
