Op-ed:
Gas Prices Rising...Why?
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

President Trump is on a “roll”...his approval rating as I write this is up to 53% as even some Democrats are finally accepting the reality of the good our president has done for both America's economy and for their personal pocketbooks. And some mainstream Democrats... those who have not yet totally bought into the socialist agenda of the Democrat hierarchy...have even come to understand the truth as to why a southern border wall is so desperately needed. But there is one thing that can negatively affect President Trump's “roll”...even if it's just in the short term...and that is the fact that as gasoline prices continue to rise Trump's approval rating could start to fall.

And while the Democrats ever growing list of presidential hopefuls starts to implode from within, even they could make up some ground if gas prices maintain their current upward spiral. And upward they do go with regular gasoline costing yet another five cents this week alone, to reach a national average of $2.74, translating into being eight cents higher than the corresponding time last year. And to make matters worse, when you add in that the $2.74 price per gallon is in and of itself 28 cents higher than just one month ago, a serious and cannot be be ignored trend is emerging while demand for gasoline is holding steady even as inventories continue to “tighten up,” and it's doing so while the peak summer driving months are fast approaching.
