Wonder if US oil companies are loving this America First strategy of OPEC pumping more oil.

No wonder he got a jet given to him.

Did I mention this from CNN:

Lower gas prices have already contributed to better-than-expected inflation reports in March and April.

It's a trend that could continue. GasBuddy projects prices will average $3.02 a gallon for the entire summer period of Memorial Day through Labor Day.

After gas prices surged to record highs in 2022 following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, President Donald Trump has focused intensely on combating energy prices by promising to unleash domestic production, slash red tape and push OPEC to add supply.

US oil prices have plunged about 20% since Trump's second term began. Analysts say that drop has been driven in part by Saudi Arabia and OPEC's sharp production increases - moves that Trump publicly called for days after taking office during a high-profile speech at Davos.

McNally, a former White House energy advisor to President George W. Bush, said Trump's efforts to encourage Saudi Arabia to pump more oil appear to have helped.

Wheres Dingle Berrys every holiday mark up report? Tell us how much more your Memorial Day meal is going to cost compares to last?

Trump bankrupted US Oil companies last time he was in office. He will do the same to help his terrorist supporting Persians.

Prices arent lower though....youve just been told they are, and now you believe that.

Really takes a special kind of gullible to be that easy to manipulate.

Takes a democrat to say low prices are bad.

Gas prices are heading below $3 a gallon. Why that's not actually a good thing.

Great to see nearly defunct CNN acknowledging DJT's greatness... much to the chagrin of the gowilkes clown posse. Strange time to start praising him though, after bashing themselves into near oblivion.

But Im glad Dingle Berry can have a burger this year for the first time in 4 years!

Meanwhile Fakey the Troll will spend another Memorial Day alone.

Quite fummy, twas just a few weeks ago that 'ol shoulda was faking outrage that its beloved SheetZ was only gouging the price @ $2.99 while saying the price woulda never go down.

Jimbojolly

All because of a slowing economy, due to Trump's ineptitude. Thanks Donald!

Hey antZtok, quit your dam lying.


YOU did quote DB's reference but YOU also added your opinion set to drag it down with a speculative lie about a "second Trump recession".

That's pretty funny

I quoted the article that DB referenced, and somehow that made me "only interested in raining on good news..."

DB Cooper

Anti is only interested in trying to rain on good news. No matter how foolish the attempt is.

Here's some links Anti,

AAA projects 45.1 million people will travel at least 50 miles from home between Thursday and Monday, breaking a domestic travel record set in 2005. Most are expected to drive or fly, though others will travel by train, bus or cruise.

Memorial Day weekend on track to break travel records

Lower gas prices fuel Memorial Day travel during record-breaking holiday

I see why DB didn't link the article...

According to GasBuddy's survey, 69% of Americans plan to take a road trip this summer, slightly lower than the 76% of respondents who planned to travel last summer.

"While we're forecasting the lowest summer gas prices in years, economic jitters are slightly dampening optimism..." said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy.

For Memorial Day, the national average is projected to be $3.08 per gallon, down significantly from $3.58 on Memorial Day last year. This year's relatively lower prices are influenced by lower crude oil costs amid an increase in oil production from OPEC+, the potential for a nuclear deal with Iran, and some economic uncertainty.

https://www.gasbuddy.com/go...ravel-2025

So the reason for the decrease in gas prices is because of increased OPEC+ production (US production is down) and fewer people are traveling in expectation of a second Trump recession.
