Unless you have an electric vehicle, you know what President Donald Trump said the other day isn’t true.
“You have gasoline hit $1.98 yesterday in a couple of states,” Trump said Thursday after a reporter asked the president how long people could expect to see higher prices amid his trade war.
There wasn’t a single state that had an average gas price close to $1.98 per gallon on Wednesday. The two states with the lowest average gas price on Wednesday were Mississippi and Tennessee, which were both at $2.70 per gallon, according to data provided by AAA.
