Its true that the media ignored the massive jump in gas prices under Biden. But the cost of filling the average gas tank has gone up about $20 since the war and that does have an impact. Unlike Biden, Trump has a set of policies to develop US energy and get energy prices down and a very smart foreign policy to source oil from countries like Venezuela and to develop better relations with Saudi Arabia. But the longer the war drags on, the worse the impact on fuel prices and the economy will be. W e can’t minimize that just because Trump is in office.

Drive less. Don’t eat out. Buy cheaper items.

Easy to save $20 to $30.
