Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is pointing fingers at a familiar target in the ongoing debate over soaring gas prices: former President Donald Trump. In a recent statement, Schumer accused Trump of unleashing a "reckless war" that has contributed to the current crisis, likely referencing the 2020 US withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal, which led to increased tensions with Iran and subsequent sanctions on Iranian oil exports. As a result, global oil supplies have been disrupted, driving up prices at the pump. Schumer's comments come as Americans continue to grapple with the economic burden of high gas prices, which have reached record highs in recent months.
