Welp, you gotta compare apples to apples.
I added the detail about the gas price in Iowa, where this senator is from. Not sure if he went to college there but meh.
Yeah gas is weird because our subsidization and conflicts we create everywhere for it. For instance gas was at 3.25 in 2008 and 2.14 in 2016. It isn't as simple as saying Obama did such a great job gas fell by 58% during that time (adjusted for inflation, though I think I just did Jan 1, so that's not entirely accurate, but we get the point)
I can imagine the gas price is a very complex and complicated beast, indeed. 😵💫
Thanks for the clarification
No problem buddy!
