How long will it take for California voters to start chanting Trump’s name? How high will gas get before their tune changes?

We aren't ever going to chant Trump's name, my friend. I live here in California. We are smart enough and insightful enough not to do something like that. It doesn't matter how high gasoline gets. We know for a fact that our governor is not responsible for the price of gas. And actually, Trump isn't either. The only person that's responsible for the price of gas is some oil company executive in a particular company somewhere that runs both the refineries and the retail sales. As it happens, we're not changing our politics based on whether or not we like the president. We don't like him at all, and no matter how high the gas goes, we're not going to start liking him.

Slight correction. While that executive does have a large say, your state does too. Look at all the taxes applied to that gas. Not only that, look at gas prices per state. I don't know if it is only tax or if it's based on how much money is in the state, but a product's price should not vary so much state to state. It's cheaper to buy california produce in a state with low income than it is to buy it in california...
(By low income, I mean the average is lower)

Don't they already chant his name? Haven't they been doing so since he first ran for office so long ago? They despise the man. And why would gas prices going up make them change their tune? This question doesn't make sense.

It's not so much that we despise him as we feel sorry for him. He is a mentally ill, convicted criminal, and he is someone who needs mental health treatment, not someone to be despised.

Being an arrogant, self-entitled prick, who does whatever the best brown-noser/manipulator says, doesn't make you mentally ill...
Biden was the one that was mentally ill. He is the one to feel sorry for.

So Trump is making gas prices go up again is what you're saying. Cool.

Probably never. Unless it's to hang Trump.

Not long, but they will be chanting "F Trump"
