"SNIP.........

“Mike Pence has relesed a new campaign ad attacking President Joe Biden for high gas prices—but it’s gone viral for all the wrong reasons,” the Daily Beast reports.

“As he delivers his spiel to the camera… the gas pump can be heard beeping off camera with increasing urgency, beckoning him, as gas pumps do, to pay and select a kind of fuel. He somehow keeps up the whole charade throughout the incessant beeping, holding the nozzle into his gas tank as if viewers might not notice there’s no gas coming out.”

I love it when fat cat repugs try to play common man and it backfires.

Whattafuckingmoron... yeah, I remember $2.00 a gallon gas. It was caused by the sudden oversupply resulting from the economy shutting down, you fucking brainless twat.

when they went under?

I thought his campaign slogan was, "More Honest than my boss was". That leaves a lot of wiggle room.

Sheesh, him touching a gas pump nozzle just does not compute.

Turned out to be way smarter than any of this MAGA bunch.

I guess there is a hierarchy of intelligence between potato-heads (Quayle) and slime (MAGAts).

Best headline of the day!

The commercial was ridiculous and that beep...beep...beep...got more insistent as it went along. Republicans are just not very good at this stuff.
