The cost of a gallon of gasoline is now $3.91. By the end of Joe Biden’s presidency in December 2024, the average cost of a gallon of gasoline was $2.98. Gasoline prices have risen almost a dollar a gallon now that Donald Trump is back in the White House, but as Donald Trump puts it, rising prices are not a problem.
Trump claimed he did not want a ceasefire in the war with Iran:
Look, we can have a dialogue, but we don’t. I don’t want to declare a ceasefire. You know, you don’t make a ceasefire if you literally wipe out the other side.
They don’t have a navy, they don’t have an air force. They don’t have any equipment for that, they don’t have spotters. They have no anti-aircraft defenses. They have no radar and their leaders have all been assassinated at every level. Um, we don’t plan on that.

If anyone thought that high gas prices might cause Trump to reconsider his war and change course, think again.
Trump really believes he is destroying Iran, which is an interesting choice of words because this is the president who told the American people that he “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear program last year, which is the same nuclear program that, according to his own administration, was weeks away from having a nuclear weapon.
Donald Trump has no intention of offering the American people relief on gas prices.
In fact, the president is acting as if the increase in gas prices is good news.
