Before the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the economy and oil markets, the average price of gasoline in the United States in early 2020 (specifically January and February) was around $2.50 to $2.60 per gallon.
Trump always had a very slow growth economy. Because of his trade war, the USMCA and other stupid ideas.
“The average price of gasoline in the United States in 2018 was $2.74 per gallon, including federal and state taxes, and adjusted for inflation. However, prices varied by state, ranging from $2.57 in Mississippi to $3.77 in Hawaii on August 7, 2018”
Oooh, 70 cents per gallon less compared to today. And that was 6 years ago. Wow, what a disaster if you make a $100 a day like a teenager or a substitute teacher.
Gas under Trump in August 2018 $2.74
Gas under Biden in August 2024 $3.46
Wow
