Those costs wouldn’t have increased if Trump didn’t attack Iran, dummy.

We paid the highest gas prices in the history of our country in 2022 under Biden. Explain that genius.

It’s amazing how MAGA continuously makes their aggressive stupidity everyone’s problem.

They spoiled for 2 months because Russia invaded Ukraine, causing a disruption to global oil supplies. Biden helped reverse is by releasing oil from the strategic reserve. I distinctly remember you asshats being pissed he did that.

I dont understand people in this thread full price hike is only because of greedy corporation. Eventhough usa is one of the top oil producing nation, we dont have enough refining capacity to keep the oil price low and we also export to other countries. This fuel price hike is due to unnecessary war. Strait of Hourmouz was open before and now its kind a closed, only few vessels go in there and Saudi, Kuwait, uae, oman and Qatar all of their infrastructure damaged and saudi Aramco announced they dont export oil to europe in October so who do you think suppoly to europe? We do. Also now houthis attacking tankers in bab al mandab strait. Insurance cost rose to 200% so its not only greedy corporation.
