Trump: "If I'm in an electric boat and I see I'm going down and the water is pouring in, so I know I'm going to be electrocuted, but 5 yards away there are sharks. Do I take the electrocution or do I go swimming with the sharks? I'll take the electrocution."
Truckers on skyrocketing diesel prices: "We can't continue to run like this." Semi trucks can carry up to 220 gallons of diesel fuel, which costs $1,320. So if diesel goes up, shipping costs go up with it and inflates the price of everything.
