Former NFL reporter Michele Tafoya acknowledged how “frustrating” and “hard” rising gas prices are for consumers during a Wednesday radio interview, but she suggested Americans should minimize some of their spending to support President Trump’s actions in the Middle East.

“I think right now at least just kind of keeping a stiff upper lip. Maybe you take one less trip to Starbucks and so that gas goes a little further,” she told Tennessee’s KWAM radio host Todd Starnes.

      if you can count it, it’s fewer. if you can’t, it’s less. e.g. i need less voltage and fewer capacitors for my project.

      crazy how many people miss that.

          not necessarily. I know far too many intelligent people who are hard-line conservatives. it’s just a lack of empathy, world experience, stubborn ignorance, or some combination of the above. Although, I do concede that the overwhelming majority of the populous that is uneducated is Republican and this is entirely my anecdotal perspective.

    Yeah man, that’s what the poor do all day.

    Not like the rich who use the company jet to commute to Starbucks.

    She’s a republican in Minnesota. She knows she won’t win, and is just trying to build her brand.

    If you love Trump with every breath till you die, go buy a solar panel, inverters, LFP batteries, and WFH, bike or take a bus to work.

    (If you don’t love Trump, do it anyway)
