In response to criticism of his war on Iran.. Trump: America is making more money “than ever before.”

(CNN) - US President Donald Trump, Al-Arbaa, said that the United States is “making a fortune” thanks to the rise in oil prices, and he also affirmed in an election rally in Arizona his commitment to returning prices to pre-war levels. On Iran

"Our country is making more money than ever because of high oil prices," Trump said at the rally in Bullhead City. "And now they're going to say, 'Isn't that terrible? He talked about the fact that he doesn't care about the average citizen.'"

He continued, saying: “I care more about the ordinary citizen than I do about big personalities; I care deeply about the ordinary citizen. But the truth is that - because of oil prices - we are making a fortune in states like Texas, Oklahoma, North Dakota and others. However, I never talk about this matter, because I will not be satisfied until we return the actual price of oil to what it was before.”

The statements came as Americans continue to pay high costs at gas stations due to the war.

Trump indicated in March that rising oil prices represented an opportunity for the United States to make money, given that it is the largest oil producer in the world, but that was at a time when administration officials were still describing the rise in fuel prices as a “temporary disruption.”

This message may not resonate positively with Americans, who today pay $4.33 per gallon for regular fuel and $6.30 for diesel, and face a general rise in prices.
