(5,597 posts)The true price hike is actually much more according to Trump's promise to cut energy prices in half.
If gas is up 40% by today's numbers, then the base would be 71.43% of today's price.
But Trump promised to cut energy prices in half so the true base would be 35.71% of today's price.
That would be a 180% price increase by Trump's earlier promise.
As if Trump's promise/word had any value.

I paid 5.75 at Costco this morning
Still though, the highest I ever paid before this time was 4.70 during Bushs war of choice

(4,015 posts)If that's the average, it's pretty likely there were places in OK with $2.28/gallon gas.
Do you think this poster staged this? How would she get a gas station to fake up $2.28/gallon?

(6,095 posts)I didn't think she faked it. The national average at that time was about $3.05 - $3.10

(23,144 posts)There were a couple of times in late 2024 that I gassed up for 2.09 per gallon.
Yesterday I gassed up for 3.79 at that exact location.
