Trump's war is responsible for a fraction of increased fuel prices. However, there's a huge difference between Trump's increased fuel costs and the much larger costs that Biden and Democrats created for no good reason.

The Iran war is a temporary sacrifice to dramatically reduce or eliminate the threat posed by Radical Islamists getting and using nuclear weapons and sponsoring global terrorism for the last 47 years. Some immature folks want instant gratification, while Trump is taking a path of crippling Iran militarily at first, and then resorting to choking their economy. He wisely chose this over putting troops on the ground which would certainly result in a lot of dead American soldiers. Thoughtful intelligent people would choose a bit of patience over sacrificing a bunch of dead soldiers. Crybaby Democrats are crying because the war is taking too much time, and they would cry even more if Trump ordered a costly ground invasion to end it faster.

Biden & Co. spiked fuel costs to level higher than they are now by sheer incompetence. He shut down the Keystone Pipeline, restricted offshore drilling and drilling in Alaska and on Federal lands. He increased lease and permit costs and taxes. Biden also banned LNG exports, and his failure to stop Putin's invasion of the Ukraine created huge demand for fuel which constrained supplies. But his overall inflation was the largest contributor to increased costs of fuel and everything else. It would have been even worse if Biden didn't drain our Strategic Petroleum Reserve in order to reduce prices a bit to help Democrats in the 2022 Mid-term elections.

So right now, at least 25% of higher gas and diesel costs are solely due to Joe Biden Inflation. Let's not forget that Democrat Gov. Newsom's insane policies forced three California refineries to simply shut down. Add in the fact that Ukraine has been attacking Russian refineries causing Russia to halt exports of diesel fuel.

Nitrah condensed it very well below. But a few gun owners goofy enough to vote for Anti-Gun Democrats will never admit it, and will never get over their Trump Derangement syndrome.


There were zero complaints about high fuel costs and inflation from Rocky Mtn Bill and Princess SKB when Biden caused much higher costs than we are experiencing now.
