Despite President Trump's campaign promises to lower energy prices, reports indicate that within the first 100 days of his second term, energy prices have significantly risen. Experts attribute the increase to Trump's policies, which include inhibiting renewable energy sources, canceling federal assistance programs, and imposing widespread tariffs. Current statistics show the national average gas price at $3.17 per gallon, contrary to Trump's claim of prices below $2, while electricity prices have reached a record high of $0.181 per kilowatt-hour, further burdening American consumers.
Trump’s energy policies—like inhibiting renewables, canceling federal energy assistance programs, and enacting widespread tariffs—are to blame for increasing energy prices.
At the 100-day mark, though, average gas and electricity prices are up, some Americans have already seen their energy bills increase, and there's 'potential for much more harm.'
Under my administration, we will be slashing energy and electricity prices by half within 12 months, at a maximum 18 months.
Though Trump ran on lowering energy prices for Americans, 100 days into his second term, energy prices are up—and expected to keep increasing.
