Claims of cheaper diesel under Trump face pushback

A commenter disputes claims that diesel is cheaper under Trump than under Biden, warning that high diesel costs could hit consumers through the price of moving freight and food.

TLDR

A commenter challenges favorable Trump–Biden fuel-price comparisons, citing what they describe as the highest weekly EIA diesel reading: $6.285 on September 14, 2026, during Trump’s second term. They say the 2026 spike has been tied to Iran-related shipping disruptions and tight diesel inventories, contrasting it with Biden’s 2022 spike following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Their central argument is that gasoline-price comparisons overlook diesel’s role in moving freight and food—and the costs consumers could face.

@Evening69StarTrump desperate to peddle more PROPAGANDA to camouflage his FAILED domestic and foreign policy. No, Trumps diesel prices ARE NOT lower than Biden’s. It is DIESEL that fuels the BACKBONE OF AMERICA and it is the cost of diesel fuel that will come back to slap American consumers in the face harder than mainstream gasoline. Trump’s second term currently holds the highest weekly EIA print ($6.285 on Sep 14, 2026). Biden’s 2022 spike followed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and a tight global distillate market. Trumps 2026 spike has been tied to Middle East shipping disruptions (Iran conflict) plus tight diesel inventories—the same fuel that moves freight and food, even though we have this supposed MAGIC VENEZUELAN PIPELINE NOW and we receive the majority of US reserves via Canada. Heck Trumps diesel prices even surpass Obama and “W” BUT HOLD ON, THERE IS MORE… TRUMP bragging his gasoline prices are lower than Biden’s ARE NOTHING TO BE. PROUD OF and still means Americans are screwed. Donald Trump’s second term is second to Biden on the peak list. Regular gas hit about $4.50 in May 2026 and was around $4.32 in mid-September. The Donald managed to surpass himself, Obama and “W”. He is charging ahead to defeat Biden by peak travel time in November.
