Can you not read? It's there in plain English. Trump never had the average price lower than Obama's last year in office. Gasoline prices went up under Trump.

No. That ship has sailed with all the printing money. TBH Trump had a hand in the inflation we are seeing with his deficit spending and helicopter money during covid. It was going to rear it's head even if Trump was president in 2020. Not as bad because he wouldn't have shutdown oil/gas production, which was causing price increases for consumers.

People are hoping things won't keep going up.

I’ll never know because i won’t give a dime to Trump supporting Lowe’s.

Of course the prices will lower. That's what happens when you have someone in charge that understands the economy. It happened in Trump's first term, so it is likely to happen again. There's a strong overlap between the people that don't think so and the people with TDS.
Of course, it won't be as much of an impact as before since Biden fricked us all over quite well. The prices will lower, but the same group of people will pretend it didn't happen because it won't be as low as it was in 2018. These people are so predictable.

If we go back to energy independence then yes, otherwise no

All you have to do is look at 2016. This same shite happened under Obama and after Trump was elected when gas prices came down the price of everything came down. Energy prices have a lot more to do with it than inflation. The more it costs to make and ship the product the consumer will pay the difference.
True, and it's not complicated. Energy is the single biggest factor in our economy.

I dont care what that stupid chart says. I remember gas prices under Trump almost getting to under a dollar. Just because some outlier State like California is driving up the average doesnt mean that prices werent lower in a lot of places. The economy was also terrible in Obama's last year. When Trump had prices low, the economy was humming

Looking at that chart Trump inherited low gas prices from Obama and then never got them lower they were higher under Trump's whole term than Obama's last two years.

When global oil prices surged 15% immediately after last weekend's missile attack on Saudi Arabian oil fields, U.S. gas costs jumped 10 cents a gallon — the biggest spike since Hurricane Harvey shut down refineries in Louisiana and Texas in 2017.

Democrats recently took a brief detour from their identity politics agenda to attack President Trump for the rise in gasoline prices. With the economy booming under Trump with record low unemployment, faster economic growth, rising consumer and business confidence, soaring investment, and pay raises and bonuses for five million workers, Democrats have been longing for any piece of bad news they can find.
They finally found something to complain about in $3 a gallon gas, up about 50 cents a gallon from last year. This pain at the pump has put a damper on summer vacation plans for many Americans. Cue opportunistic Democrats, who are blaming Trump’s Middle East policy.
{mosads}“President Trump’s reckless decision to pull out of the Iran deal has led to higher oil prices,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), who, before it became politically inconvenient, also opposed the Iran nuclear deal. “These higher oil prices are translating directly to soaring gas prices, something we know disproportionately hurts middle and lower income people.”
So let’s see if we have this straight. According to Schumer and his Democratic colleagues, Trump doesn’t deserve any credit for the cavalry of good news on the economy, but he is responsible for the one negative piece of news: gas prices. Now for a dose of high octane reality. Almost no serious energy analyst takes this blame Trump spin seriously. We know why gas prices have spiked. The Saudis reduced their oil output by about a half million barrels a day in order to drive up the world price, and the strategy worked, at least temporarily

Some things will absolutely be cheaper and some will not. However, very few things will be rising in price as much as it will under another Biden term.
The elimination of a lot of Biden policies and regulations will have a huge impact on fuel and energy. That alone will bring some costs down because it affects the whole supply chain. Removing the climate agenda edicts will free up capital for businesses that will also lead to cost reductions.

Yes because lock down Don thought it was a good idea to pay people to sit at home and not work so nobody was driving to work and gasoline plummeted in 2020.

some outlier
Irony. 2020 was an outlier for Trump and had artificially low prices which skews his averages which would have been higher without Covid. Welp.
I don't care what you think the data shows that Trump inherited low gasoline prices from Obama and then they proceeded to go higher and only for Covid did they come down.

Silly name. Trump didn’t have the power to lock any city or state down and he never issued a lock down order.

Wrong. This is a Trump started this mess and Biden only continued it thread but the Trumpies won't admit that Trump was culpable with his ridiculous out of control spending. We aren't here just because of Biden and his bad policies (and his policies are bad I'm not just blaming Trump)
What trump policies were bad?

Its already been posted. Trump never had gasoline lower than Obama's last year in office. Gasoline went up under Trump. Trump also inherited an improving economy from Obama which he then proceeded to wreck with insane monetary policies in 2020 which gave us the worst year economically since 1946.

Did the Louisiana governor gleefully give press conferences standing next to midget Fauci about paying people to not work? Did the Louisiana governor want to give even more in Socialist Stimulus than congress allowed? Tell me.

Way to cherry pick 1 year out of 8 years under Obozo... And the one year you pick there is 1 cent difference. WOW... You got us on that one dipstick. Now look at the average for those years
Obozo - 3.04
Trump - 2.57
That to me is a big difference. But go ahead and cherry pick that 1 year and it was a 1 cent difference.
No wonder nobody likes you. Prick

global pandemic is Trump’s fault. You’re as bad as Roger. EVEYTHING is Trump’s fault. You even praise Obama’s economy! when Obama was President he blamed his shitty economy on Bush. You must be very young. Posted on 4/4/24 at 1:24 pm to ronricks

You know what the Louisiana governor did do? Issue a lock down order. Trump did not. Like I said, your nickname is silly. Your TDS is severe, however.
