Trump continues to spread misinformation: "Gas prices have just dropped below $1.98 per gallon, the lowest level in years." Major media outlets around the world are fact-checking President Trump's claim.[Crying and laughing emoji]

"Gas prices have just dropped below $1.98 per gallon, the lowest level in years, grocery (including eggs!) prices are falling, energy prices are falling, mortgage rates are dropping, employment is strong, and there is more good news because billions of dollars from tariffs are flooding in. As I said, we are only at the 'transition stage,' and it has just begun! Consumers have been waiting for years for a moment when prices fall.

There is no inflation now, the Federal Reserve should cut interest rates !!! DJT"

CNN: Trump falsely claimed that gas prices in some states had reached $1.98, which is not true. No state's average oil price is close to $1.98 per gallon. According to data provided by the American Automobile Association (AAA), as of Wednesday, the lowest two states - Mississippi and Tennessee - both had gas prices of $2.70 per gallon.
