And they will never drop back to the price before Trump's Iran War, either. They never do.

Trump's going to own high gasoline prices for a good long time after we pull our ships out of the area. It's going to take some time for the supply chain to create lower prices, although they will drop some as soon as the war ceases. If it ceases.

Trump is an idiot. Have I said that before? Maybe.
