Do they drive a hybrid or electric vehicle? If so, they are not experiencing the gas impact.

That happened because Energy Secretary Chris Wright sent out a tweet saying the US Navy had successfully escorted an oil tanker through the strait of Hormuz. It was a lie.

Gas prices are not coming down, the straight is still closed and there are reports of oil tank/s burning near the straight.

Don’t celebrate too quickly. Oil was at $55.99 per barrel on January 7, 2026. It is $86 right now. Not really a crash.

Nope. I knew gas prices would come down with Trump or any republican for that matter. Prices are still lower than where Biden had them a few years ago.

They’ll come down. Mark my words.


Still waiting on that 1.80 gas 🤣🤣🤣

Sure, because Republicans historically break the economy, and gas prices naturally follow.

I guarantee you the PP still has a stack of those Biden "I did that" stickers in his mom's basement.

Not worried.
Gas prices are transitory.

Virtually all US oil comes from the US (domestically produced), Canada, Brazil and Colombia. We only get around a single-digit percentage of our oil via the Strait of Hormuz.

The fact that prices have gone up dramatically more than that single digit Gulf percentage can account for shows how broken and corrupt and susceptible to gouging the oil industry is.


It shows that this is a worldwide commodity. If demand is high worldwide and supply is low, prices go up. Sales are global.


DP. Supply is not low in the US. We produce a lot more oil than we consume. Seriously you could just ban the exports of refinery products and US gas price would be under a $1. You could expand and make it so once domestic demand is met refineries can sell on the world market.

Sure it’s socialism maybe communist but it could easily be done. It’s not like Trump and the Republicans have not done similar market manipulations and demanded equity shares of private companies. This is just a small step.



Yeah, but then the world economy would collapse and take ours down with it. Congrats, you have $1 gas, now what job are you going to drive to?

So many US companies also rely on imports for stuff manufactured and shipped from overseas.
