This video was posted 2 1/2 weeks after the war started when gas prices really started to rise.
The war in Iran continues on and it seems like Trump and his minions had a few things they didn’t quite think through.
Oh, Iran could close the Strait of Hormuz. And oh, cut off 20% of the world’s oil supply. And it doesn’t matter if America is self-sufficient. Oil prices at over $100 per barrel means gas prices. Anyone remember 1973? Or 1979? Long lines at the gas pump for the privilege of purchasing 3 gallons so you could drive a bit then look forward to another gas line?
Who knows if we’re headed for that, but Trump knows these gas price spikes aren’t good for he who promised $1.99 gas.
All is great when you listen to Trump and his friends but behind the scenes he’s likely throwing ketchup bottles at something.
