How high will gas prices rise under Democrat control?

Obama said the days of gas ever being under $2.50/gallon are gone forever, but then we saw them dip well below $2/gallon under Trump.  Now they are increasing quickly again since the Democrats destroyed energy independence.  How high do you think they will get the price per gallon of gasoline in the next four years?

    The dipping in price in 2020 was the result of the pandemic.

    Now prices of a barrel of oil are creeping back to what they were before.

    Now, on the 'energy independence' front, did you know that the US only imports 6% of its oil, half of it from Canada, with Mexico being second as the source of import?

    Would it be a terrible stretch to imaging that the US could boost its local production just 6% and do completely away with imports?

    And if you are looking for who to blame for the oil price, you just need to look at the #1 and #2 oil exporters in the world: Russian and Saudi Arabia. They are the ones controlling the price since they are tweaking the production just so as to maximize their profit.

    Once again, a republican religious freak just managed to demonstrate how illogical and ill informed he is.
