Sounds like Trump uses the same method for determining gas prices as he does for property values
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

As of today, premium is about $5.20/gallon in California.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

Whether or not other outlets "bash" President Biden or not, it doesn't change the "lies" of President Trumps speech.
(We need to start over with two new candidates)

This is (unintentionally) funny and this thread is as good a place to put this as anywhere.
Speaking at the Black Conservative Federation Gala in Columbia, South Carolina, the former president leaned into all the criminal charges against him, telling the crowd about how he’d been indicted, and then “indicted a second time, and a third time, and a fourth time.”
He went on to claim that “a lot of people” told him “that’s why the Black people like me,

And...He's picking up black support, particularly males.

So, the most expensive gas in the most expensive state is almost a dollar cheaper than your Dear Leader claimed. And this somehow vindicates him.
Do you work in advertising by any chance? Hopefully you don't work in a gas station.

"Not enough people are sounding the alarm, that based on his behavior, and in my opinion, Donald Trump is dangerously demented," psychologist and former Johns Hopkins Medical School professor John Gartner,
And others, like clinical psychologist and Cornell University senior lecturer Harry Segal, who specializes in mental health disorders, offer a more nuanced assessment — though not one that inspires much confidence in Trump.
"Since this is an intermittent problem, it suggests that when Trump is especially stressed and exhausted, he suffers cognitive slippage that affects the way he associates words or their meaning," he told Salon. "Note, though, that Trump’s pathological lying is itself a form of mental illness, so these cognitive lapses are literally sitting atop what appears to be an already compromised psychological functioning."

These sorts of "experts" are a big reason why nobody trusts "experts" when it comes to politics. Lump in the climate change experts with that too. I understand the void that leaves, but people will inevitably be skeptical when midwit academics with political axes to grind weigh in with their credentialed opinions, and those opinions looks like this. By the way, the Colorado ruling that took Trump off the ballot was informed by a sociology professor who testified that Trump had developed a coded language by which he communicated to the mob, telling them to do an insurrection.

According to Gartner, if you're successful, you're fucked up.

@Horace Horace, I agree with you 100%. Everybody has bias which helps to "define" what they believe.
If an article like the above is about (generic) your guy, it is easy to point at the weaknesses.
If an article like the above is about the other guy, it is held up as a sound expert reasoning.
And as usual, the truth is somewhere in the middle.

Of course, after all, Hitler liked dogs.

You will find that when appealing to the "experts", both sides are not equal. The institutionally entrenched side (the left in America) will by definition have the institutional experts on its side, and so the appeals to the experts will come mostly from that side.
Now, somehow the institutionally entrenched side is not the "conservative" side in the West, which is an interesting state of affairs. What we mostly need is to redefine how we think about "conservatism". It seems obvious to me that the conservative inquisitor class, the people with the psychological earmarks of entrenched status quo true believers, are on the institutional left these days. These people would have been conservatives in any culture they were ever born to, to the extent that psychology plays a part in tribal affiliation.
