Trump Transportation secretary Sean Duffy pleaded for grace for President Donald Trump Sunday as Americans continued to struggle with the high cost of living. Duffy appeared on ABC Newss This Week where Jonathan Karl asked if Americans should hold off on buying airline tickets now that oil prices are skyrocketing due to the Iran war.
United Airliness CEO said last week that hes bracing for $175 a barrel for crude oil, which could make the cost of an airplane ticket prohibitive for average Americans.
Well, we havent seen a significant spike in tickets because of this conflict, Duffy said. Now, Scott Kirby from United said he could see oil prices go up to $170. I think airlines do well when they plan for the worst and hope for the best. So, thats what I think is happening there. But I think we have to offer the president grace, Duffy said, continuing:
We know the president cares about the economy, gas prices for the American people. Hes talked about that frequently and often. He also cares about peace, and a lot of people dont give him credit for that. But hes proud of the conflicts that he resolves and he doesnt want to see conflict. I hear him talk behind closed doors about the number of young men and women who are lost in battles around the world. He cares about that.

Costing the lives and crashing the economy while begging and condemning our allies in favor of Putin is treason. This 'president' is breaking the country not to mention laws domestic and internationally. He is a global menace.

(8,836 posts)We WILL NOT offer any grace or forbearance of a child rapist and decades long thief.
The man is nearly 80. If people had held him accountable for his behavior decades ago, we would not be in the mess he has created.
No means no and the Trump mob needs to accept that we will give no grace and no pardon to any of them.
