During a campaign stop on Nov. 2, 2020, then-President Donald Trump touted the low gasoline prices of the time and warned that if Joe Biden became president, Americans would end up paying $7, $8, even $9 a gallon.
Trump also said that, in response to those high gas prices, the Biden administration would tell people to get rid of their cars.
“It’s an incredible thing that’s happened over the last few years, a lot of great things,” said Trump. “And you’re paying, what, $2 a gallon for your gasoline? That’s okay.”
