Who was President in 2008? That’s right, your boy George W. And they were higher then!

Less gas-guzzling SUV's on the road is a good thing.

Well, I mean, if we got off oil more this wouldn't be as much an issue right?

Stop complaining and figure out a way to help. If you can not stand up for good take a seat.

Gas prices are high all over the world.

Question, is US oil production more today than it was under Trump? Are we importing more or less oil from Russia today compared to under Trump?

Tell the oil and gas companies that, not us.

The gas we pump now was refined how long ago? Months, weeks? At that time, the price per barrel of oil was much less. As long as American oil is subject to the whims and speculation of a global market, America will not be energy independent. Pumping more oil doesn’t change that.
Replying to @SenatorTimScott
It’s past time we start electing politicians who really care about America. American oil must be reserved for America at American prices. It should not be on the global market subject to speculation & global greed. No matter how much more we pump, this will always be the case.
