Trump blamed President Obama for gas prices. Why isn’t ANYONE blaming him? He says it is OPEC but why? Trump wanted to raise prices for infrastructure but that was an empty promise. When will it start affecting the economy? Or is it meant to make poor people poorer and increase revenue for big oil? Where is the outrage Obama received?

The price per litre in the USA has averaged 77 cents per litre for the last six months.
The price per litre in the UK has averages 163.3 cents per litre. Don't complain.

Did you really think this post was about the price of gasoline? Or the difference between how Trump and Obama are treated?

In all fairness, the title of the thread is "Price of gasoline".

Yes. That is the title. When Obama was first in office the price of fuel was a huge thing with the Republican Party, although Obama inherited that mess he was blamed. And every penny it went up was bemoaned. But now? No problemo. What is up with the price of gas? And why are we defending Trump and the big energy companies. After all, we had the ex-CEO of Exxon as our Secretary of State. Where is Trump’s plans to use gasoline tax to fund infrastructure? Where is the deal we were promised?

Now, THAT discussion belongs in 'Politics'. I don't disagree with what you said, but I wasn't looking at politics.
The discussion about the price of petrol belongs here.
