MEDIA HYPOCRISY: Legacy Press Suddenly CARES About Gas Prices After Ignoring Biden's Energy Disasters

The legacy media's desperation is showing as they attempt to weaponize temporary gas price increases against President Trump, conveniently forgetting their four years of excuses for Biden's energy disasters that crippled American families.

Gas prices have risen roughly 50 cents per gallon as tensions escalate with Iran's terrorist regime, but here's what the mainstream media won't tell you: Trump's America First energy policies have kept prices dramatically lower than Biden's peak of over $5 per gallon in many states.

Where was this media outrage when Biden shut down the Keystone Pipeline on Day One? Where were these concerned headlines when gas hit record highs under the previous administration's war on American energy? They were busy making excuses and blaming "Putin's price hike" while ignoring Biden's systematic destruction of energy independence.

The Real Story They Won't Report

Unlike Biden, who begged foreign dictators for oil while attacking American producers, Trump has maintained our energy dominance through his "Drill, baby, drill" agenda. Current price increases stem directly from Iran's escalating aggression – the same regime Biden enriched with billions in sanctions relief.

"The difference is clear," one energy analyst noted. "Trump built energy independence that protects Americans. These temporary increases pale in comparison to Biden's manufactured energy crisis that devastated working families for years."

Patriots remember paying over $5 per gallon under Biden while he attacked American energy producers and enriched our enemies.

The establishment media's sudden concern about gas prices exposes their rank hypocrisy. They ignored American suffering under Biden's policies but rush to attack Trump over temporary increases caused by confronting the Iranian terrorist regime.

Americans aren't falling for this desperate narrative. They remember who delivered energy independence and who destroyed it. Will you let the media rewrite history, or will you stand with the president who's actually fighting for American energy dominance?

Finally someone is calling out this blatant double standard! Where was this coverage when we were paying $5+ per gallon under Biden's watch?

Exactly! They were telling us high gas prices were somehow good for the environment back then.

This is why nobody trusts the legacy media anymore. Their selective outrage is so transparent it's embarrassing.

I drive cross-country for a living and watched gas stations change their prices daily during the worst of it. My fuel costs doubled almost overnight but the mainstream media acted like it was no big deal.

As someone who drives a delivery truck for my business, I remember those brutal months when fuel costs were eating into every single job. The media was nowhere to be found when small businesses like mine were struggling.

The Keystone XL cancellation was just the beginning. Biden's war on domestic energy production hurt American workers and made us more dependent on foreign oil again.

Lost my job when that pipeline got cancelled. Media didn't care about our families then.

Remember when they blamed Putin for everything? Now that prices are coming down they're suddenly interested in covering energy policy again. The hypocrisy is astounding.

The "Putin's price hike" narrative was such obvious propaganda. Prices were already rising before Ukraine.

I'm curious - does anyone have the exact numbers on how much gas prices rose during Biden's first two years? Would love to share the data with some liberal friends.
