“President Trump took the stage Friday against a backdrop of crude storage tanks at the Port of Corpus Christi in Texas and touted low fuel prices to a small crowd of supporters,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
Said Trump: “Slashing energy costs is among the most important actions we can take to bring down prices for American consumers.”
“Just a few hours later, the U.S. and Israel launched overnight strikes against Iran that risk sparking a wide conflict in a region that churns out about one-third of global crude—potentially snarling Trump’s stated goal to make life more affordable for U.S. consumers.”
