Not one to miss an opportunity, Trump himself has taken credit for the gas price drop, tweeting, “Only I could make this happen! Gas is now cheaper than bottled water in Red America. Let’s make gas GREAT again!” The tweet was met with fervent applause from his base, many of whom took to social media to share screenshots of their fuel receipts as proof.
Prominent Republican leaders have also chimed in, echoing Trump’s sentiment. “This is what happens when you have real leadership in the White House,” said one conservative senator. “Red-state residents are finally getting the break they deserve after years of skyrocketing costs.”
Democratic leaders, meanwhile, have called the situation “blatant favoritism,” with some urging investigations into potential price manipulation. “Americans everywhere should enjoy affordable gas, not just those in certain states,” one Democratic governor commented. “This is a political stunt at the expense of the rest of the country.”
In the blue states, the reaction has been less celebratory. Many are taking to social media to express envy—and frustration—over the disparity, with some Californians, New Yorkers, and Washingtonians even driving across state lines in search of lower prices.
“My gas is still $5.29 a gallon!” lamented one California resident. “Meanwhile, they’re paying $1.99 in Alabama? Where’s our discount?”
