You are aware of the disconnect between the price of oil (which is on the cheaper side when adjusted for inflation) and the price of fuel, right?

What is going on is a refinery issue. We have a refinery issue because leftists successfully blocked every new refinery since 1978.

That may be true. However, in 2025 gas was reasonable. And then in 2026, it changed drastically. Gas prices rose sharply in late February and March 2026 during Donald Trump’s second term, triggered by the U.S. conflict with Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

As soon as this election is over the price of gas will go down. It will no longer be needed as a weapon against Trump and the America he loves.
