 mr peters shows us a bit more of the parts of the orange man's arrogance;

 

 In New York the other day, Trump told his audience – which actually cheered – that it’s not a big deal at all and well worth it “for you to pay a tiny little bit more for your gasoline just remember, you’re doing. .  . so that a very evil country cannot have . . . a country really cannot have . . . it’s the number one state sponsor of terror in the world . . . we don’t want them to have a nuclear weapon  . . . remember that when you have to pay a little bit more you’re at $4, ok, I mean I’ll never apologize I did the right thing.”

 It’s “not a big deal at all”  . . . for Trump, who can easily afford not just the gasoline (say it with a snarky, purse-lipped intonation, as he did) and also a fleet of 250 Cadillac Escalade SUVs with huge V8s that guzzle oceans of gas, since you and I are paying for it. Most of us can’t afford the Escalade – even just one. As far as the gas, “a tiny little bit more” has so far added up to around $700 for the average American filling up his or her average four-cylinder-powered crossover appliance once a week. By year’s end, the average American will have had to spend more than $1,000 extra on gas. Pocket change for Trump. He is as clueless as George W. Bush’s father  (who was puzzled about the cost of a gallon of milk) but with the added element of imperial contempt............more.............
