Average gallon of gas in June of 2018 was $2.94. Right now its $3.03. Are you accusing Biden for the increase of 9 cents a gallon?

Here is my source.

The simple fact is that if you are going to compare gas prices between years, you need to compare the same month of those years because of consumer usage. You being the economic genius that you are certainly knows that people use more gas during certain months of the year than they do others and as a result gas prices fluctuate between months. The fact that travel was so low back in 2020 because people were not flying, driving, or going on cruises explains the low price of gasoline. If you want to give Trump credit for that, you can because it was his inaction in the beginning which caused the country to be shut down for so long which caused people to stay home and as a result gas prices dropped. Of course, if you want to give him that credit then you also have to accept that it was his fault the country was collapsing economically.. Also you compare it on a national average. Only a true moron would take away anything from the meme about comparing gas prices between Obama and Trump. They were obviously different months as well as different states.

Did your 'source' accidentally omit June/2019?
Nope, it sure did not.
YOU chose to go with the very highest point in Trumps presidency, was that a mistake on your part? Wouldn't the 'closest' year have been more relevant[pre-pandemic]?
Can't image why you would choose to do that.......nah, we all know why.
