Winsome Sears: Americans Know Biden Is To Blame For High Gas Prices
[Washington Examiner] Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears slammed President Joe Biden's attempts to blame energy prices on Russia's invasion of Ukraine on Thursday, saying "the American people aren’t stupid" and aren't falling for it.

"They know that prices were rising from the day that he started," Sears told the Washington Examiner after speaking at an event at American University in Washington, D.C., hosted by the AU College Republicans and the AU Network of Enlightened Women.

"We were a net exporter of energy before he came into office, and he changed all that. So this is pretty much squarely on his shoulders and the shoulders of Democrats."

Of the president's response to rampant inflation, Sears told the Washington Examiner, "We ought to continue to drill," adding that "he should open the Keystone Pipeline."

The lieutentant governor praised the president for news that he is releasing one-third of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve but said, "We should’ve replenished it when President Trump wanted to do so."

She further decried "onerous" regulations that she says prevent companies with current leases from drilling to their full potential. "So, to tell us that the businesses should act on the leases that they already have is stupid, and it’s disingenuous at the same time," Sears continued.

#1 

Biden alone is not to blame.
It took a ☺ Village ☺ Liberal Socialist Democrat idiots in DC to screw it up this bad.

Remember Biden in week 1 of his admin, told us he was just signing whatever is put in front of him.

The LSD poorly thought out Eco Agenda did this with Biden.
Actions that stopped a lot of drilling, Fracking, and pipeline delivery. This is what has left us in short supply.

I am sure the DC LSD's understood how their actions would interact with the Free Market Rule of Supply and Demand.

Thus driving up prices that hurt everyone and yes their own voters.

#2 and since the price of oil is based on the world market, some of the blame goes to Countries that won't allow fracking, e.g., the UK and Czech Republic

and also some States that have similar anti fracking rules, e.g., CA, NY
