Indeed - I'm all for re-wrecking the economy by bringing back Trump in 2024.
We'll all be rich.
You'd rather have a strong dollar?

Yeah, Forbes. I believe the unemployment rate was hovering around 5% before the Covid.
And, yes, little registered Democrat dunce, we had achieved total energy independence. I paid a buck eighty a gallon for gasoline when Trump was our beloved President, what are you paying now, stupid little boy?
What single thing has the installed illegitimate dunce Biden achieved that you can hang your hat on, little Holliday?
Name a single thing besides he isn't orange and bad.

The fumes from Trump's jet fueled rocket stock market which appear to be just now running out now that investors are starting to realize that printing money to waste on garbage is never a good a idea
I remember paying at least $3.35 a gallon when your beloved shitbag Trump was in office. Your memory must be about as good as that dumbasses. lmfao
You live in a leftist state though... that's your State's interventions on the price.

You can blame Trump and Abbott/Texas for the high gasoline prices, and OPEC/Big Oil.
All of the current conditions leading to high prices formed on Trump's watch.
Gas is about $2.66 per gallon on average in the Buffalo area this week. That's a $0.14 increase from just one week ago. The last time it cost this much to fill up your tank was October 2019.
"During the pandemic, factories were shut down, people weren't driving. People really quarantining last spring. That just drove oil prices right into negative territory," Carey said.
Oil and gas prices dropped at the beginning of the pandemic. Supply was plentiful, but demand was not.
"So OPEC scaled back, U.S. oil producers scaled back, every producer cut output. Now, as we start to see recovery, that's a problem. They have not responded much to the increase in demand. That's why oil prices today are $62 a barrel, not $35 a barrel like they were last Halloween,"
Patrick DeHann, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy said.
Couple that with the crippling winter storm in Texas and gas prices soared.
"40% of crude production was shut down because all of these refineries closed down. Once they operate again, they're up and running, the situation resumes at these refineries in Texas, the prices should come down," Carey said, "However, oil prices continue to rise so we don't expect gas prices to get much cheaper. We expect oil prices to continue to rise in the coming months."

Depends. It's weak mainly because interest rates are low and the trillions dropped on stimulus payments. Lots of loose dollars in the markets.
Interest rates will have to be ratcheted up probably next year, maybe before the summer or soon thereafter to avoid inflation.
The Federal Reserve directly controls rates, not The President.
So therefore your country is controlled by a private bank...
