"Uh, look, all I can say is gas prices went down dramatically because we're producing more oil, we're creating those new opportunities around the world. Venezuela is gonna help us in the long term. But the threat of Iran is real. The congressman went on to say the conflict is a short-term challenge, but it will be a long-term success for America and the world."
A C-SPAN caller criticized Rep. Mike Haridopolos for repeating Fox News talking points associated with President Donald Trump. The caller cited 9% inflation under Joe Biden and argued that gas prices were not controlled by presidents, instead attributing them to wars in the Middle East. The caller also referenced claims about Iran’s nuclear capabilities and accused Republicans of changing positions only when political pressure increases. Haridopolos responded that gas prices fell dramatically due to increased oil production and new opportunities, including help from Venezuela. He said the threat of Iran is real and framed the conflict as a short-term challenge with long-term success for America and the world.
