Lincoln Square: Trump's Iran Chaos Could Hammer Gas Prices For Years




May 28, 2026 #politics #lincolnsquare #democracy

Rick Wilson and Stephen Beschloss break down Trump’s chaotic claims about Iran, the whiplash over whether a deal exists, and the long-term consequences Americans could feel at the gas pump.

Wilson warns that war, oil markets, and depleted reserves cannot be fixed by Trump simply declaring victory. Beschloss adds that the larger problem is trust: Americans are not being told the truth about what is really happening. From Iran to oil prices to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, this conversation explains why Trump’s foreign-policy chaos could create real economic pain at home.
