Big oil scared of whats coming. If they don't get prices down they know Democrats are going to make it illegal to charge for gas.

I wonder why they didn't lower gas and egg prices when Biden was running for reelection?

Almost like it was inflated on purpose up to the elections. Hmm…

Trump was saying back in September that we would see prices fall immediately following the elections. Seems to me that not only were the markets being manipulated to help democrats, but that Trump also knew the elections would be rigged.

I’m sure it’s a joke but I sure wish you guys would stop making light of those of us who do have trouble buying gas and groceries.

And BTW, my house note is $950 a month and my truck is paid off.

Did they inflate them on purpose when Biden was president? Because I'm pretty sure it was his shitty policies. One of the good things Trump did was fix that.

The reality is - it always drops this time of year because we are going into winter.

Last year it dropped 28 cents, but we had really low prices last summer.

In 2024, it dropped 63 cents from previous highs this time.

2023 was a 70 cent drop

2022 was a 1.69 cent drop.

Less demand, cheaper fuel blend happens every year.

This year the price of oil is dropping also as it looks like the Iran war is about to end one way or another. So maybe we'll get some of that 2022 action.

But I guess pretending it's because of election bias is a better coping mechanism for those who can't handle their reality.

A 10% drop 3 days after the election is not a winter blend phenomenon.

Supply didn't change in 3 days...demand didn't change in 3 days.

Yes bc now Trump and his retards can’t unilaterally decide to stay involved in the war in Iran, which is why coast guard Pete is about to get impeached and markets are forward looking and Trump
is also capitulating on escalation now that he knows they’re basically fricked

While that is true, when does it change to winter blend exactly?

One person decided to bomb the Middle East and spike the prices.

There has been around a 3.5% drop in the national average price for a gallon of gas over the past week. Where are you getting your 10% figure?

Anyone who voted Democrat because of gas prices is an idiot. Look across the country and tell me is it red state or blue states that have the highest gas prices? That’s all you need to know.

Then you have a Costco problem. Seems like they were gouging you. For purposes of this thread, the national average price is a much more useful statistic, don’t you think?
