The American people are being hit hard by Donald Trump’s war. Not only does the Pentagon want taxpayers to foot the bill for a war that two-thirds of the country does not support, but Americans are also facing higher prices for food, goods, gas and utilities.
Trump continues to raise prices on the one hand and demand more money on the other to pay for his war with the others.
The Republicans have offered no remedy or solutions to ease the suffering of the American people.
Trump and his party have chosen to ignore the crisis, but Democrats have ideas to ease the pain.
Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) was on Meet The Press where Kristen Welker asked him, “Let me ask you about the impact here at home, obviously the centerpiece of it, those high gas prices. They rose to a four-year high this week. Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico has called for suspending the 18 cents per gallon federal gas tax until prices start to come down. Is that something you would support in the Senate, suspending the federal gas tax?”
Many states are discussing or, in the case of Indiana and Georgia, have already suspended their state gas taxes, but the federal government has not yet done anything about it.
Senator Adam Schiff would like to change that and make Big Oil pick up the tab.
