@crazyeddie@mastodon.social @georgetakei@universeodon.com "When did she say this?" She said it on Wednesday. Right before she said it, she did acknowledge the high prices, giving the official "short term pain, long term gain" rationalization. She wasn't actually pretending gas prices weren't currently high, she was trying to deflect criticism by saying they had been dropping for quite a while before. Still a weak attempt, but not exactly the same as the gaslighting that the out of context quote implies.
