Biden didn’t do anything to affect global pricing. It was just the surge in demand caused by economies coming back to life. The world did it to itself.

Trump, OTOH, directly and deliberately started a war that resulted in destruction of oil refining capacity as well as holding petroleum and energy transport hostage, affecting the entire world.

But that distinction is far too difficult for republicans.
