“Gas prices in the United States reached $4.50 per gallon during Donald Trump's presidency.”
HIGH CONFIDENCE
TL;DR ·Gas prices surpassed $4.50 per gallon in May 2026 during Donald Trump's second term.
National average gasoline prices reached $4.55 per gallon as of May 8, 2026, during Donald Trump's second term . High-credibility sources confirm that on May 7, 2026, Trump was questioned regarding prices rising past the $4.50 threshold . While average pump prices during his first term (2017–2021) were significantly lower, typically ranging between $2.00 and $3.00 , they surged in 2026 following the outbreak of war with Iran . By late March 2026, prices had already jumped past $4.00 per gallon for the first time since 2022 . Although some data from April 2026 showed temporary fluctuations , multiple reports from May 2026 verify the $4.50 benchmark was exceeded .
