During the 2024 presidential campaign, Donald Trump made a flurry of promises that he said he would fulfill on “Day One”<\/em> if he were reelected. They included ending Russia’s war against Ukraine, revealing a healthcare plan to replace Obamacare, and balancing the budget.<\/p>\n

Obviously, none of those promises, and several others, were kept. He never intended to keep them. They were just hollow pledges of things that he knew he couldn’t accomplish, but was compelled to flagrantly lie because he was so desperate for the votes that he needed to regain power and to stay out of prison.<\/p>\n

Another vacant promise that Trump made was that he would reduce the prices on necessities like groceries, housing, healthcare and gas. Instead, prices for those things went up after Trump’s reoccupation of the White House. And especially with regard to gas, the American people were burdened with higher costs directly related to Trump’s reckless and illegal war against Iran.<\/p>\n

So what’s a pathological liar to do when he finds himself sinking to record lows in public approval due to problems that he created and for which he has no solution? Well, in Trump’s case, he relies on his imagined prowess for lying. On July 1, Trump posted a comment<\/a><\/strong> on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, that said…<\/p>\n

“Just as I promised, Oil Prices are plummeting FAST, and Gas Prices at the pump are dropping too…I am pleased to announce that a VERY smart Retailer, located throughout the Northeast, is stepping up, and wishing the People of Philadelphia a ‘Happy Birthday!’ On July 3rd, the Freedom Fuel Network will be lowering gas prices at 25 ‘FREEDOM FUEL’ Stations across the Greater Philadelphia Area. This Retailer is taking the lead, and others should follow. They are doing this because they love the U.S.A.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On the morning of July 7, Trump followed up his announcement with another that said that “FREEDOM FUEL HAS ARRIVED…lowering the price at the pump to $3.47 for our 47th President.”<\/em><\/p>\n
