How Much Did Gas Prices Raise Under Biden Compared To Trump?

[mudwhistle]

I remember when Democrats were crowing that high gas prices were good, back when Obama was president.

Many of them said that $10/gal was the goal.

They figure that this would curb consumption.

Now they're screaming that Trump is raising gas prices too much.

I remember when the price of gas hit almost $4/gal back during the Obama administration. Now CNN says gas prices are almost $4/gal and making a big deal about it.

But we don't have to go back that far to see how gas prices went up more under a Democrat president.

Gas prices rose $2.70/gal while Biden was president. Gas prices almost doubled under Biden to average almost $5/gal.

So you can't tell us in didn't matter then but all of the sudden it matters now.

Who is still paying Biden gas prices?

Gas prices are expected to soar in 2026 due to several factors, including military operations in the Middle East and the pressure on the Strait of Hormuz. The national average price of a regular gallon is projected to be $4.06,

Yup, TEMPORARY gas price increase, as opposed to Barry and bribems INTENDED, PERMANENT gas price increases.

Chronic retreat to bygone days confirms impotence in defending the present.

Yes, it's true that Biden was not squandering a billion dollars a day in a disastrous "little excursion" to the Persian Gulf, but his wise restraint is not relevant now.

The troll is cranky because it’s taking him too much money to fill up his gas guzzler

Barry WANTED high gas prices to "fight glowbull warming". You asshats lauded him.

So your faux concern now is laughable.

You think that? Really?

So you think sending close to a trillion to Ukraine to pay for a never ending war would be a good investment, genius?

I agree with most Americans and our democratic allies in Europe regarding both Putin's invasion of Ukraine, and Trump's "little excursion" into Iran.

Most Americans Want to Back Ukraine​

Americans Broadly Disapprove of U.S. Military Action in Iran​

Did you fall for Trump's fake promise?

Trump says he can end the Russia-Ukraine war in one day ​

I did not.

Campaign promise.

He keeps learning just how insidious Democrats can get.

Obama was seen pimp-walking into the British PM's office in the early days of Trump's second administration.

It's clear that our European allies are all in on the conspiracy.

So, yet another unending war. You're a dishonest idiot.

The price increases were due to external factors, whereas Trump’s price increases currently are a consequence of his Iran war.

Gasoline went up under Biden because of the war Vladimir Putin started plus demand picking up from the Covid epidemic that epidemic that Trump handed him.

 

[Greenbeard]

Gas prices, particularly in the Midwest, are now going vertical--70 cent increases since breakfast today.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Who gives a shit. Biden lost. WTI is $108 and Trump us circle jerking about his Versailles ballroom.

The war Vladimir started and Biden allowed to happen.

Not to mention all of the shit Biden/Auto-Pen was pulling behind the scenes.

We're still 60 cents per gallon lower than we were on June 2022.

Seems the only time gas prices matter is when Republicans are in the White House.

I am a leftist. When I see Trump smirk like that I want to throw something at him.

Biden declared WAR on fossil fuels and the prices skyrocketed. Trump Haters have the memory of a goldfish.
