President Donald Trump expressed his dissatisfaction with Chevron CEO Mike Wirth on Monday, accusing him of ingratitude. Trump demanded that the executive reduce prices as frustration grows among voters over high gas costs.
Trump’s comments came through a social media post, where he criticized Chevron for not acknowledging the administration’s role in the oil major’s financial success. The statement followed the release of Chevron’s quarterly earnings, which showed significant profits. Meanwhile, drivers face gas prices exceeding $4 per gallon for regular fuel.
As of Saturday, the national average gas price reached $4.10 per gallon. This has added financial pressure on drivers nationwide.
