Average Gas Price Hits $4.30 A Gallon

[postman]

European morons get it for up to €2.5 a liter, which is $11 in your stupid non metric system, and are seemingly asking for more. What's your measly four and a half compared to the kick they get coughing out a hundred plus for a medium-sized tank at a gas station?

This is like the man with no shoes vs the man with no feet.

Well in the US we want shoes, and don't care if the reset of the world is footless.

Sure it was, he froze military aid, not once, but twice, and welcomed a minor incursion....https://www.heritage.org/global-politics/commentary/joe-bidens-minor-incursion-russia-remark-history-proves-it-was-mistake

Except Putin did not pull off a Minor Incursion.
This was not Putin's first rodeo into Ukraine, but he crossed the red line that time.

Correct, Putin played Xiden....Xiden's weak foreign policy certainly were damning.

Which time did he cross that red line? What was the red line?

You seem confused....I have never suggested there was some sort of shortage of oil....in fact the opposite...we had plenty. The policies impacted consumers at the pump

I'm not confused at all. The price of oil on the global market is what sets the price of gasoline. Biden's EO's in 2021 had a negligible effect on not only the US Oil Patch but also the global oil producers as well. Production had already been cut. Drilling rigs and their support teams had already been stopped. Supply chains were being disrupted. It was Covid.

It should also be noted that even with the sanctions on Russia....when Trump took office in 2025, he got prices down below three dollars.,

Gas was $3.08 when Trump took office, January 2025

Below $3 only took an 8 cent move.

Gasoline prices have gone up more in the US than Asia.

/----/ Good to know next time I want to drive in Asia.

The U.S. nationwide average gas price has climbed to $4.30 per gallon as of Thursday, according to data from the American Automobile Association (AAA), a four-year high, as American drivers feel the squeeze at the pump.

Gas prices rose 7¢ on Thursday, up from $4.23 on Wednesday, according to AAA data. The last time average U.S. gas prices topped $4.15 a gallon was in April 2022, shortly after Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Gas prices have been rising since the U.S. and Israel's war in Iran began on February 28, when a gallon cost $2.98.

The Supreme Court won't be able to bail you out on that.

Hasn’t been that high since Biden

the drop was minor, and for a short period...just two months, March and April, and it only dropped about 40 cents.

It dropped 70 cents, read the graph

the drop was minor, and for a short period...just two months, March and April, and it only dropped about 40 cents.

The year over year drop was about a dollar from 2019 to 2020. A year later between 2020 to 2021 it had risen by about the same dollar as well. And because OPEC+ was not increasing production fast enough to keep up with demands, oil prices kept rising into 2022.

Again, I never suggested the price at the pump was impacted by a lack of oil...it wasn't...we had no shortage.


It was not Covid, Covid was long over when XIden's policy hit in 2022....

Biden doing nothing to prevent it was.

Not true.

What steps the U.S. has taken against Russia for the invasion of Ukraine

The U.S. sanctions and penalties announced so far appear to spare Putin himself from sanctions, and forgo an option long-cited as one of the toughest possible — banning Russia from the SWIFT financial system that moves money around the world.

Biden boycotting Russian oil was.

That helped prevent them from easily defeating Ukraine, which was expected.

Not sure where you learned math....but March of 2020 it was 2.23, the lowest it got was the next month at 1.84...that's not 70 cents.

Yes, the spike didn't happen til two years later when Xiden's policies were in full effect

There was no shortage of oil....heck OPEC was producing massive amounts of oil by Jan 2021....they were up to 500000/day in Jan 2021 https://www.business-standard.com/a...barrels-a-day-in-jan-2021-120120400110_1.html

.“It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and we end up having to fight about what to do and not do. But if they actually do what they’re capable of doing with the forces amassed on the border, it is going to be a disaster for Russia if they further invade Ukraine.”

Stupid comment, but still threatened them not to invade as they ultimately did.

Biden helped stabilized the world. Oil was around 70 in Jan. 2025. By Dec. 2025 it was just below 60. Now in less than a year and a half, Benedict Donald has turn all that success around, nearly doubling the price of oil. Is that what the Epstein Class wanted? Are they invested in big oil?

He invited a minor incursion....froze aid not once but twice at Putin's request.....and did nothing when they did a full scale invasion.

Thanks for the reminder that the Xiden Admin, and the Dems made history with a record setting high for gas

2020 and 2021 increases were caused by covid.

2022 increases were caused by Russia.
