In her "Final Thoughts" commentary, Fox Nation host Tomi Lahren rips Pete Buttigieg for recommending rural Americans hit with gas price spikes buy an electric vehicle to avoid the petrol pinch.
"And in Mayor Pete’s America, if you can’t afford gas prices just get yourself an electric car that costs twice the amount," she added.
"Fuel prices have hit a 7-year high with the average price per gallon of regular sitting at $3.39 cents and premium over 4 bucks. In California that number is even higher with regular fuel sitting at an average of $4.70 and premium, what that’ll cost you over $5 bucks a gallon."
Lahren said residents of states like California can thank the Democrats they elected to state office for the highest national gas tax and the restrictive energy policies that have caused the price to spike prior to the recent inflation crisis.
