SHOT/CHASER: Donald Trump Doesn’t “Have Any Concern” As Gas Prices Skyrocket 

In the last two days, the average price of gasoline has increased at the fastest pace since 2005

Washington, DC – Donald Trump told Reuters today that he doesn’t “have any concern” about skyrocketing gas prices in the midst of an affordability crisis that he created. Americans are facing surging prices at the pump thanks to Trump’s war in Iran, but Trump is doing what he does best and gaslighting the country by claiming that they “haven’t risen very much.” In reality, Americans are paying $90 million more on gasoline today than a week ago. 

SHOT: Trump is telling Americans to quit whining about soaring gas prices because the war he started is “far more important.”

CHASER: The national average price of gasoline has risen by 27 cents since last week.

@jimsciutto: New: “The national average for regular gas has surged by 27 cents since the war started. Gas prices are now averaging $3.25 a gallon, up 5 cents from yesterday. That’s an 11-month high and means gas is now more expensive than when President Trump took office ($3.13/gallon on Jan. 20, 2025.)” – @MattEganCNN
