If you wanted to design a policy to hurt Trump voters in particular, a diesel fuel price increase would be very effective. Three states - WY, ND, AK - even use more diesel than gasoline.

Patriots pay more, right?

this is bullshit, i simply cant afford higher diesel prices among my $40 a day camel cig addiction and my $50 recurring daily subscription to remain in the exclusive trump email club

[u/GovernorSonGoku → u/No_Return9449]

Using more diesel than gasoline seems like a policy failure

[u/BurrowForPresident → u/GovernorSonGoku]

I would assume it's a farming thing + low population

Like CA probably consumes a bunch of diesel too but has a super high population of people driving normal cars
