I think your last sentence is spot on.  There's 50 factors that are causing the headaches in the WORLD economy right now.  Probably 75% are a combination of lingering consequences of Covid-world and Russian douchebaggery.  I guess my biggest beef is with the belief that this was "mostly" Biden's fault.

and when Trump takes the reins and oil price goes down you will have 50 reasons for that other then giving credit

If Trump were to get back into the White House and he did something that forced OPEC to lower prices, then absolutely yes I would give him credit.

...but fair warning, I'm going to want something a little more concrete as proof besides Trump proclaiming it.

US oil production should set new records next year, natural gas production is already there.

The oil problem was brought about on purpose by Brandon to push his green agenda

there is a lot of evidence of this including his self admission

What specifically has he done?  Delay leases or stop fracking on Federal lands?  Oil companies have leases for 3-4 years, and most oil production is on private land in the US.  Stop the pipeline?  It wouldn't be built yet anyway, and of course it relates to tar sands oil (bitumen) from Canada, and that oil is being refined anyway (shipped by rail, at some increase in cost, and pipeline).  It also would have shipped less than has been released from the SPR anyway, which hasn't made much of a dent.

Brandon's EOs were largely folderol, meaningless, meant to appease part of his base.

OPEC+ announces 50 percent increase in oil output for July and August | The Hill

Misleading headline, they increased their planned increase by 50%, which is better than nothing, but still small.

Ummm, if the oil production next year is going to be the highest that it has ever been in this country, then he's doing a crappy job at pushing a green agenda.

This is Biden's dilemma, it's going to look bad to the Greenies when this happens, and the rest won't be prone to giving him any credit (I won't).

Horns of a pitard.

$7.25 in the marina now. Good thing I'm a member and get a $0.50 discount. $6.75 for me. Yay!!

I paid more than $3.99 for the first time today
$4.39
I don't like it
most signs I saw were $4.49
I don't think crude has gone up at the same rate as gasoline in the past 4-6 weeks

it's price gouging

gas stations used to work on percentages - probably still do, I don't know

but, if they were making 10% on $3/gallon, they're making a heck of a lot more on $4.50/gallon
