All these seemingly inconsistent stances make more sense once you look at what ties it all together. They want power. Over others. Via money. By rallying against a common enemy. Doesn’t matter how of if it makes sense. As long as it works and gives them power the Republicans will do it.
Except that Republican voters will not have any of that power, the elected politicians will.
Temporarily embarrassed authoritarians.
they want a hierarchy and don’t care where they land in it as long as they’re not the bottom.
They think they’re not at the bottom

Isn’t the government being in charge of gas and egg prices socialism, which I thought Republicans were “against”. (Unless it’s giving free money to the already rich for no reason, in which case it’s somehow not socialism)
Republicans are against the word Socialism, but they are in favour of the policies when you don’t say the name.
Or just in normal democracy due to taxes
They’re hurting the wrong people!
This is more of a problem with lumping everyone on the right as a republican and everyone on the left as a democrat.
-things libertarians say
I don’t think that’s as big of an issue as you think it is.
“There are dozens of us. Dozens!”
When the political system is built up as a duopoly it’s hard not to lump everyone into one or the other side, it’s all you have.
That’s true. Republicans are a cult. There are people who are conservative who may or may not be Republicans. Most are though and are happy to be in the cult, overlooking gross anti-american tendencies and actions for their own selfish greed
Yes, I want my president to be in charge of gas and egg prices.
forgot where I was and wasn’t sure where it was going lul
Pretty spot on commentary.
Well dont say you are going to shut down oil and gas industry. Then wonder why prices spike. Then sell the strategic reserves at a low price. Then buy it back a a much higher price.
Didn’t Biden sell at a. average of 96.25 a barrel then buy it back at 73 a barrel?
Don’t bother telling facts to a magat
I just was hoping for the information. I Google it and I can’t get definitive answer
You were right on the money
(Well, barely off)
Yeah but that’s only 6m of the 100+ that he sold?
I dunno. At least they tried to do something decent to lower prices
