Trump inherited $2.25 gasoline from Obama and never was able to get it lower even with Covid skewing his 2020 average. Sorry this upsets you.

Is this adjusted for inflation? Numbers would look even worse for dems.

Now do number of days with gasoline above $4.


Adjusted for inflation. Barack's numbers are probably benefiting from 50% deflation compared to today.

Just looked it up, 46% inflation since 2012 (middle of Baracks 2 terms).

Most of Baracks term was over 4 bucks a gallon by 2026's standard.

Do you remember when oil went negative price during Trump’s first term? He tried to fill up the Strategic Oil Reserve and the Dims blocked it. He could buy it for a few dollars a barrel.

Now they have the gall to complain. Shut down refineries, slow down exploration and it’s Trumps fault. Hypocrites.

Yet gas was cheaper under Obama.
