I'm sure Commie will be thrilled when he returns to work tomorrow.

Quote:This Labor Day, motorists will see the lowest gas prices in half a decade.

GasBuddy projects the national average at $3.15 a gallon — the cheapest holiday weekend at the pump since 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic brought global travel to a halt.

"Thanks to President Trump fully unleashing American energy dominance, gas prices this summer are at five-year lows and families are saving significant money at the pump," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News Digital.

"President Trump ended Joe Biden’s green new scam policies and is making America affordable again," Leavitt added.

In 2024, gas prices stood at $3.29 per gallon, and the year prior reached $3.77.

I noticed that one day last week at a BP, the price for regular unleaded was over 3 bucks one day, then the next it was back down to $2.79. I saw it for $2.39 at some punjabber store in Raleigh just yesterday. It used to be a Citgo station that was well kept, it now looks about ready to fall down and I'm not sure I'd trust their gas.

More bad news for the TDS afflicted, but a welcome development for motorists.

Of course, remember, the president doesn't have anything to do with the price of gasoline...unless it's their president when it's low.

Gas prices fluctuate regardless of who is in office. However, the President through prudent policies can create a favorable long term environment for lower sustained prices. For example, Trump has expanded drilling on federal lands and waters, ended Biden’s oil and gas leasing restrictions and rationalized climate and environmental regulations.

That...alone is a big win. No more forced electric BullSchiff.
