Biden policies driving up the cost of gas
...
“OPEC is supposed to add 400,000 barrels a day a month. They’re struggling to do that right now,” Eberhart explained. “And on top of that, we’ve got an inflationary economic environment, so I think oil is headed higher.”
Eberhart added, however, that Biden’s “policies are pushing gas pricing up.” He said that the administration “doesn’t care for the price for energy that consumers are paying,” and pointed to the revoking of the Keystone pipeline permit and other restrictions on drilling.
“I think what [Biden] is showing is he cares more about hurting oil companies in general and he cares more about pushing a progressive kind of Green New Deal type agenda than he does about energy prices,” Eberhart argued. “That is what I am seeing if you look at the policies.”
Between November 2020 and November 2021, the average cost of gas increased from $2.01 to $3.40 per gallon. Despite the precipitous rise in prices during his presidency, Biden’s Democratic allies have been emphasizing the smallest available signs of momentary cost savings. For instance, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee shared a graph on Twitter showing that gas prices had dropped two cents.

The only reason Biden allies are talking about a minuscule drop in the price of gas is they read the polls and know that gas prices are killing the Democrats chances of election as much as his absurd open borders polices are.
