President Donald Trump has stated that he disagrees with Energy Secretary Chris Wright's prediction that gas prices may not drop below $3 per gallon until next year. This statement contradicts comments from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent last week that the gas prices could hit the $3 range. The global oil industry has been rocked by Iran's restrictions on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, leading to gas prices rising to over $4 for the first time since 2022. The average price of gas in the U.S. was at $4 on Monday morning. The president also commented on the Iran war, stating that he believes gas prices will drop "as soon as this ends"
