National average hit $4.02, according to AAA data, capping an extraordinary rise from $2.98 just a month ago
Average US fuel prices have crossed $4 a gallon for the first time in four years, piling pressure on drivers as Donald Trump’s war on Iran continues to boost oil markets.
The nationwide average climbed to almost $4.02 on Tuesday, according to AAA data, capping an extraordinary rise from $2.98 just a month ago. The fuel price last reached this high in August 2022.
On the west coast, many drivers filling up cars and trucks are grappling with prices far higher than the US average. In California, the average is $5.89 a gallon; in Washington state, the average is $5.35.
These fucks will complain about it but never blame trump. They’re incapable.
He’s just breaking our dependence on oil, he’s a green party infiltrator.
If we look at the long term effect, assuming the United States is still standing, yeah probably. If we look at his intentions, lol couldn’t be more opposed to reduced reliance on oil
Yeah but sending the world into a global recession… all because its reliance on oil… only really says hey maybe this whole oil thing is stupid to the normal people of the world…
We can get basically free energy from the sun and other technologies? Why are we doing this again…
But then I remember covid… and yeah people are just dumb
Except donnie dumbass has been waging war on EV, solar, and wind, too.
Think about this for one second. The fact that people have to spend an extra dollar per gallon of gas and it is that impactful to their finances should be the bigger story. How fucked are most people they can’t absorb an extra $50 or so per month for gas increases?
It’s not the gas prices, it’s how strapped the American people are. That’s the story.
Quick someone find the sticker
Oh no the poor Americans, how will they survive paying slightly above a third what we pay here? Denmark and I suppose most of Europe, except the countries where it’s more expensive and Americans pay less than a third.
USA is an immoral country, that has failed to tax fossil fuels since the 70’s to limit the use of them.
Americans should be ashamed of themselves for the level of CO2 per capita USA is producing. Which is twice than what it is for EU and China.I hope a lot of Americans fail payments on their gas guzzling SUV over this.
I chuckled a bit when seeing this headline. “Really? 4usd per usg? So cheap. That’s what all this fuel crisis is about?”
I take back what I said in 2020. Turns out the president can control gas prices. Bombing an oil-significant country does that effectively.
Trump “I did that!” sticker makers love this
Still ⅔ of the price of gas in Sweden. 🙃 Leasing an EV via work feels pretty safe right now.
In four years? What happened before four years ago??? What changed in that time in-between???!!! Must have been the Olympics.
So what exactly are Republicans selling?
The economy? No.
Consumer prices? No.
Employment figures. No.
Avoiding war (Trump specific). No.
Tax cuts? Not in my case. Your experience may vary.
And this is 100% on Donvict.
Any “i did that!” stickers are entirely appropriate in this case…get ready for buttmad donvict dead-enders…
Nearly $7 here in Washington state
Yo dawg we are winning so hard bro I hope we keep winning and win harder!!!
MAGAs who can barely afford to drive to work: “It’s the least we can do to help Daddy Donald defeat Islam!”
Cucks.
Its around $5.50 USD/gal where I am in Canada right now. Diesel is even more.
Those prices are not returning to what we had before the MAGA fucknuts went ahead with their stupidity. The damaged refineries will not return to normal operations for several years. This could be a big win for the EV, renewable energy and just maybe…the USA will wake the fuck up and build a decent public transportation network with high-speed rail.
