Trump's Truly Stupid About "Iowa Gas"

 Second time we've seen this come up, so we're calling him out.

 ...They didn’t like the fact that gasoline went up. Because I had it down at a low in Iowa — it was $1.85 … a gallon, $1.85 a gallon. And when you look at $1.85 and you go up to three-and-a-half, $4, that’s still lower than Biden, lower than Obama. But the war was blamed for that, and they didn’t like the war, I think, mostly for that reason. ...

The $1.85 price is for 80% ethanol (corn whiskey) blend, Donald.  Of COURSE it's cheap in Iowa.

But it's not 'regular' gas; you are strongly discouraged from using it in small engines.  It gives you lousy fuel mileage and not-quite-good engine performance.

Maybe you should stop focusing on making money and the Permanent Wars in Ukraine and Iran and learn something about Flyover Country, Donald. 

Jus' sayin'
