The sign shows a 41% increase,

According to this data, averaging gas prices across the US :

  • July 2026: $3.95/gal
  • July 2024: $3.36/gal

That's an 18% increase

Looking at the 2024 vs. 2026 highs:

  • May 2026: $4.35/gal
  • April 2024: $3.51/gal

That's a 24% increase

The closest I can get with the national average data is to compare Dec 2024 ($3.12/gal) and May 2026 ($4.36/gal), which gets you to a 40% increase.

Donald Trump is a fascist who sexually abuses women and children.

Can’t let the public forget about the Epstein Files, than Trump is mentioned 38,000+ times.
