Looks like gas prices are plummeting in Ohio under President Trump. I wonder how many votes President Trump will get Ohio based on the rock-bottom gas prices there that people thought would never be low like that again.

Interesting, how California started to import a much more higher percentage of foreign oil when President Trump got elected.

The more Californians import, the lower the price for people in patriotic Trump loving states like Oklahoma and Ohio.

Looks like many gas stations in Ohio are down to $1.63 a gallon thanks to President Trump and his fossil fuel policies.

Odd, how while it is an oil free for all under Trump with America drowning in cheap oil, how California has been importing more and more since President Trump got elected.

They are also known for mega-commuting. Not only do they pay about $2 a gallon than parts of Ohio but they commute for massive distances hours each way not being uncommon in California as opposed to Ohio where people can afford to buy where they want according to their needs.

California on the other is importing more and more foreign oil while using less and less Patriotic "Made in America" oil.

They pay an average $3.58 in LA, in the college-town of San Luis Obispo full of extreme environmentalist academic liberals they are paying a whopping $3.70 a gallon.

Californians don't care what gas costs.

Okay, so the shale oil production began in 2014 under Obama, not DJT. There's also indications that this boom is starting to go bust. Don't rely on cheap oil being here forever.

By the time the 2008 election had rolled around, gas prices were plunging. But that didn't stop McCain from getting elected.

Except for shale oil production started in 2003 in the US and was going really strong in 2010, slowed down in 2011 when Obama stopped giving additional permits for BLM land. And it hit a major oil bust in 2015 which we are still coming out of but it's now somewhat steady since 2016. It's only been on the rise again since Trump has been in office. This is pretty easy stuff to google if you don't know anything about the O&G industry so not sure why you would post easily disproven information.

Ohioans paying as little $1.62 for Made in America gas thanks to Trump, while foreign oil loving LA average $3.58

Filled up my tank this morning at $4



Seems like both coasts are getting completely screwed!


Thankfully I have an Accord so I only fill up once a month, or less.
