On the campaign trail in 2024, President Donald Trump promised to make gas dirt-cheap again and blamed record-high gas prices on the Biden-Harris “war on energy.”
That’s usually how it goes. The Republicans fuck shit up, make token discounts to the idiot voters that expire while the Dems are in office. The Dems are stuck with the mess, and have to take the time to fix it. And then it gets fixed right about the time Republicans take back control to duck it up again. And the only lasting effect that compounds over time is lowered taxes for the ultra wealthy.
The chart clearly shows it was at its cheapest the day Trump took office.

That’s my point, it’s been more expensive under Trump for wgile, it’s not like a “just in the last week” thing
corporate owners need to put a spin on anything that makes their servants look bad. they need them in power to keep the money coming.
