White House officials are bracing for oil prices to surge past the $150-a-barrel mark as the Iran war stretches into its second month and the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed, according to a new report.
In recent weeks, the average cost of a barrel of crude has hovered around $100, a figure that the Trump administration now sees as the new “baseline,” though a potential spike to $200 hasn’t been ruled out, a source familiar with the matter told Politico.
As a result, officials have entered “all hands on deck” mode, urgently evaluating options to tame soaring oil prices — which pushed gas above $4 a gallon this week and risks inflating costs across the broader economy.
The Sociopathic Oligarchs see the Dow as the leading indicator of the economy, and never notice gas prices.
But to the average American, the price of GAS is the leading economic indicator, and that number psychologically symbolizes the health of the economy in their minds. That number is displayed on every corner in the country, and every American passes it many times a day, driving it into their skulls.
This is NOT good for MAGA, and a reckoning is coming. MAGA is feral, and when they feel cornered, wounded, and scared, they will strike out ferociously. It’s going to get uglier before it gets better.

They tend to have a blind devotion to Donald Trump. By that I mean they change their opinions to match his actions. Every republican I know cared about the Epstein files, but now that Trump has expressed annoyance whenever they are brought they no longer care if they are released and even act annoyed if you bring it up. They viewed Joe Biden as evil and that he was the main cause for high gas prices, but now that gas prices are going up under Trump they understand the president doesn’t cause the prices to go up. The cost of healthcare, childcare, grocery’s, and housing were all things they cared about when Biden was president, but now that prices are going up and not down they no longer care. It’s not necessarily a personality, while I do feel a lot of them do share similar traits. What you are looking for is a person that is able to think however Donald Trump wants them to. That’s what makes a MAGA. It’s someone who will never criticize Trump they will just change their opinions. They only care about what Trump wants them to at the time.
Good post. Too bad you wasted it on a guy who doesn’t know what a MAGA is. I suspect he won’t understand even after reading it.
You should check out his most recent comment if you want to laugh
LOL, thanks.
You can’t find MAGAs? I suspect that if you looked in the mirror, you’d see one.
What does maga refer to? Perhaps the people who wear it on their hats? What is this question?
Obvious troll is obvious. Your four day old account is full of Trump posting.
