US Gas Prices Soar to $4.30/Gallon as Trump Promises Post-War Drop
Average US gasoline prices hit $4.30 per gallon, a four-year high, as the standoff with Iran and closure of the Strait of Hormuz drive crude above $100/barrel. President Trump insists prices will fall sharply after the war ends, but analysts warn oil costs don't automatically cool with a ceasefire. California saw prices exceed $6/gallon, and the spike has dented Trump's approval ratings amid rising public discontent.
