Donald Trump told struggling Americans to “suck up” rising gas prices, calling them “peanuts” as the country deals with one of its worst energy crises in decades. The comment came during a press conference, when Trump was asked about his plans to address soaring gas prices caused by the ongoing war with Iran.
Instead of offering any concrete solutions, Trump talked about how things had been going well before America had to “take a little journey” and “do something with Iran.” He did acknowledge that gas prices have gone up since then, but showed little concern for those affected.
