“The president doesn't have to lie about gas prices, but he apparently can't help himself. … In fact, in recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly claimed, in a variety of settings, that consumers in unnamed states are paying $1.98 per gallon,” citing Trump’s recent appearance on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” where the president told host Kristen Welker that gasoline prices are below “$2 a gallon. $1.98, $1.99, $1.97. ... I have it down to $1.98 in many states right now.”
“None of this was even close to being true,” , according to AAA’s price tracker, which puts the national average price for gasoline at $3.18 per gallon.
“Literally zero states have prices below $2.60 per gallon. What’s more, when White House officials have been pressed for evidence to substantiate the president’s claims, they’ve offered nothing.”
