Trump Shrugs Off Gas Price Crisis as Costs Set to Explode

The president isn’t bothered by the at-home consequences of his new war.

President Donald Trump, 79, has shrugged off concerns over spiking gas prices, saying Thursday, “If they rise, they rise.”

Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at Gas Buddy, says prices will indeed rise. He expects gas could soon reach a nationwide average of $3.55 per gallon—a far cry from the few sub-$2-per-gallon stations Trump touted during his State of the Union address last week.
