Trump: Refinery disruptions, not Hormuz, are driving gas prices

President Trump stated that gasoline price increases are driven by oil refinery disruptions rather than the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. He asserted that record numbers of barrels are currently flowing, shifting the cause away from Iran. Additionally, President Trump attributed rising fuel costs to Ukraine and refinery closures. This occurs as AAA data indicates that California currently maintains the highest diesel prices among all states, highlighting the regional impact of these soaring energy costs.
