Except they did come down you twit: Today’s gas prices: Gas prices in the U.S. have gone up more than 30 cents a gallon in the last week and are slated to continue rising as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed amid the Iran war. The cost for regular gas as of Sunday is an average 4.446 — a week ago it was 4.099, according to AAA’s fuel site. U.S. gas prices were an average 2.98 on Feb.
26 — two days before the war in Iran began — and a year ago, the average price of gas was 3.171, according to data from AAA. They think that people will not remember this but they do remember that one week when gas prices briefly hit 5.00 a gallon as we were recovering from the massive dislocation of the global pandemic. This one was caused by Trump. Democrats need to make sure they hammer that home again and again and again.
