Trump demands lower gas prices from oil companies, chides Chevron CEO
Americas3 sources3 countries🔦 Under-reported30m ago
On Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump publicly demanded that oil companies lower gasoline prices for American consumers. In a social media post, Trump specifically chided Chevron CEO Mike Wirth, asserting that companies like Chevron have achieved large profits due to the policies and "genius" of his administration rather than recognizing the CEO's leadership.
Political analysts note that high gasoline prices and broader cost-of-living concerns present significant political risks for the Republican Party ahead of the upcoming November midterm elections, prompting the administration's renewed pressure on the energy sector.
