I've heard a lot of Democrats blame "price gouging" for the inflation and price increases caused by their own failed policies.
And now...
Yikes.
From Truth Social:
We spent years making fun of the Democrats for this during Biden's term 👇
Since we don't actually live in a free market, but a government-regulated system of soft socialism and crony capitalism, you could probably find evidence in every industry that companies are squeezing the consumer to make a few extra bucks.
But I didn't have Donald J. Trump taking aim at the oil industry for price gouging on my 2026 Bingo card, especially because oil got expensive after Trump bombed Iran. 😂
Big Oil had some words for Trump via NBC News:
In response to the President's message, the American Petroleum Institute, which represents all of the major U.S. oil and gas companies, said the industry 'shares the goal of delivering relief at the pump and restoring stability to global energy markets.'
But, 'gasoline prices don't move in lockstep with crude oil, especially during a major global disruption that is still affecting supply, refining and inventories,' API spokesperson Bethany Williams said.
'Our focus remains on supporting market stability and delivering the energy consumers need,' she added.
Anyway ... cue the comments!
