Biden - According to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the national average price of regular gasoline climbed above $4 per gallon for several consecutive months in 2022, beginning in March and remaining there through July. Prices ultimately peaked at about $5.02 to $5.07 per gallon in June 2022, marking the highest national average ever recorded
And what were they in 2023 and 2024?

Still cheaper than the last administration but at least you're fine being retarded.
Still cheaper than 2022. His term didn't end then. Gas is more than under the last admin in 2023 and 2024. Y'all love your single data points though.

Biden vs Trump

Got bad news for you politicos. Oil is global. No doubt Geo politics has direct role in its pricing, and U.S. has big fingers. But WOUSA (world outside….) has big fingers too.

To say, POTUS gets moderate credit for oil price at best, up or down.

Just remember.
The same people who told you 35% inflation and $5 gas gave us the strongest economy ever, are telling us 3% inflation and $3.50 gas is economic disaster.

2022: $5 peak
2023: $3.50
2024: $3.30

SPR was released during the spike, not after.

So prices fell, and your example is a mitigation effort, not a cause.

High oil prices means not only the cost of gas is high, but EVERYTHING will be high because of it.

Most of us posting here would already be dead had kamala been elected. $4 or even 5 dollar gas is a beautiful thing considering the alternative.
