Donald Trump: Gas prices were "$1.86 when I left" the White House. PolitiFact's ruling: False Here's why: Former President Donald Trump took multiple shots at his successor, Joe Biden, during an interview with conservative broadcaster Hugh Hewitt. Among them: an attack on Biden for a rise in gasoline prices.
The only time the national average gasoline price reached as low as $1.86 under Trump was in March 2020, at the very beginning of the pandemic, when demand cratered due to lockdowns and business closures.
In Texas, which typically has among the lowest gas prices, the average price that week was just under $2.10; in Houston, it was $2.06. "In no U.S. city or state was the average price of gasoline $1.86 per gallon on Jan. 20, 2021," said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis with GasBuddy.
