President Trump downplayed rising gas prices resulting from the US-Israeli military operation against Iran, claiming the country profits when oil prices increase, despite the average gallon reaching $3.60. The price surge, driven by crude climbing above $100 per barrel following Iranian attacks on Middle Eastern oil facilities, could become a political liability for Trump and his Republican allies ahead of November elections.
