The video is pretty funny.
Man Rails Against Biden at Gas Station in Viral Video—'I Want My Trump Back!'BY KHALEDA RAHMAN ON 5/17/21
A video showing a Trump supporter railing against the Biden administration while in line at a gas station has gone viral. The rant came as the effects of a cyberattack on the nation's largest fuel pipeline continue to be felt.
The 16-minute video was posted on Instagram by a person using the handle "semore_views" over the weekend, with the caption: "I want my Trump back!"
It has amassed almost 60,000 views since and was shared to Twitter by Melissa Tate, an ardent supporter of former President Donald Trump, on Monday.
"EPIC: Black Trump supporter goes off on Biden supporters sitting in gas lines & challenges them to say why they voted for this disaster the country now finds itself in," Tate wrote on Twitter alongside a shorter clip of the incident, which also attracted thousands of views.
"I need Trump back," the man, seen wearing a red "Make America Great Again," says to the camera in the profanity-laden clip.
"We had gas, we had electricity, we had jobs, we had food... now we sitting at home with no gas. Some people no electricity, no jobs, waiting for a stimulus check, waiting on goddamn extra food stamps. What's going on?"
The man's comments came after Georgia-based Colonial Pipeline was hit by a ransomware attack on May 7, forcing it to shut down operations and resulting in fuel shortages in several Southeastern states.
Colonial said it restarted operations on May 12, but cautioned that it would take several days for service to return to normal. According to reports, Colonial paid millions of dollars in ransom to DarkSide, the criminal syndicate responsible for the attack.
President Joe Biden has vowed to take aggressive action against the group, telling reporters last Thursday that the Justice Department has launched a new task force "dedicated to prosecuting ransomware hackers to the full extent of the law."
Biden noted that the country has seen critical infrastructure taken offline by floods, fires, storms and criminal hackers and that his American Jobs Plan includes investments in modernizing and securing infrastructure.
But in the video, the man claimed that "we wasn't going through this sh**" during the Trump administration. "We were winning. Winning, winning, winning!" he insisted.

Although few people are seen in the vicinity, the man walks around asking people to "tell me why the f**k you support Joe Biden right now."
At one point, he panned the camera to show several vehicles lined up for gas. "All they can do is f**king wait," he said.
He then railed against the Green New Deal, claiming Democrats have a plan "to f**k up everything within the next 10 years," and called the president an "old bum."
"I want my goddamn Trump back," he added.
"Everybody quiet as s**t. Where the f**k are the Joe Biden supporters?" the man asked people nearby, to no response.
Newsweek has contacted "semore_views" and Tate for comment.
