How out of touch can you be? Trump gave his State of the Union address this year on February 24. He bragged about low gas prices. This is a direct quote from the speech:
"Gasoline, which reached a peak of over $6 a gallon in some states under my predecessor — it was quite honestly a disaster — is now below $2.30 a gallon in most states. And in some places, $1.99 a gallon. And when I visited the great state of Iowa just a few weeks ago, I even saw $1.85 a gallon for gasoline."
Then of course four days later he launched a war which has has the current national average for a gallon of gas at $4.10.
Very rarely is it this crystal clear whose fault gas prices are. You can scream about Biden refusing to drill ANWR or whatever till the cows come home, this is something even the most apathetic, low information voter out there can tell: The policy that led to the higher gas prices (Iran War) and whose bright idea it was (Trump).
North American crude supplies would be larger if not for the Biden (and his allies) policies, and considerably larger if Biden had aggressively picked Western Hemisphere (and particularly North American) oil SUPPLY as a method to counter Putin.
That likely would not buffer all the present price increase, but it would certainly help.
Besides, if Trump took no action, how long would it be before the Iranian regime used this lever, anyway? The further you go down the line of inaction, the more leverage they would have.
So, your OK with Iran getting nukes and having complete control of the Strait of Hormuz, and you feel quite comfortable with Trump running up the white flag and getting completely out of the middle east. Yes?
