GASOLINE AND DIESEL OUTRUN TRUMP'S PRICE PROMISE

National average gasoline hit $4.20 a gallon on Friday, nearly 40% above year-ago levels, while Trump's pledge to cut fuel costs to $2 a gallon within his first year remains unmet. Diesel climbed even faster, up about 70% over the same span, squeezing truckers and shippers days before the midterms. The widening gap between campaign promise and pump reality keeps $UGA and other inflation-sensitive assets under pressure.
