Donald Trump on $4 Gas Prices: “All I Have to Do Is Leave Iran”

President Donald Trump addressed concerns about rising gas prices during the conflict with Iran, saying that prices could quickly drop if the United States simply “left Iran.” The remark came as fuel costs climbed toward $4 per gallon amid tensions in the Middle East and disruptions affecting global oil markets. Trump argued that the situation reflects the broader geopolitical stakes surrounding the conflict, noting that energy markets often react sharply during major military operations. Supporters say the president’s comments highlight the difficult balance between maintaining pressure on adversaries and managing the economic impact of global energy disruptions.
