Granted the data guru in question is Harry Enten from CNN, so take this with a grain of salt. CNN is one of the prime accusers of President Trump.
"Seventy-seven percent of Americans blamed Trump for high gas prices following the launch of Operation Epic Fury against Iran on Feb.28, which is higher than the blame former Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Joe Biden received during their administrations.
In 2005, 71% of Americans blamed Bush for higher gas prices, while 64% and 70% blamed Obama and Biden, respectively."
Even though gas prices are still considerably lower than under Biden, who was not in a war that was driving up prices. Trump had this as a side-effect of a necessary and proper war to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons - Biden purposel drove the price of oil up to appease the Climate Change kooks.
Eighty percent of Independents blame Trump for high gas prices but a majority of Republicans do as well.
We have to get gas prices back down soon or this is going to really hurt us in the midterms - something Iran is counting on, which is why they keep stalling.

Oh, piffle! I believe a majority of Americans have the capacity to understand the whole thing, and realize why gas prices are where they are now. And the ones who are leftists have never understood why anything is the way it is, from the start.

Hope you are right Dana. But the lo info voters often don't care why we are doing this - they just want what they want. They elected Joe Biden after all.
