Johnathan Allen spoke to Trump supporters in Pennsylvania and found some willing to pay more at the pump while others were calling it quits
NBC News senior politics reporter Johnathan Allen spoke to President Donald Trump supporters in Pennsylvania and found some willing to pay more at the pump during the war with Iran, while others were calling it quits with Trump.
In a Tuesday report from Millersburg, Pennsylvania, Allen spoke to multiple voters who have supported the president at the pump as they are facing an uptick in gas prices amid the ongoing Iran conflict. According to AAA, the national average for gas sits around $3.80 compared to just below $3 a month ago. Trump and Israel launched strikes against Iran late last month.
Pennsylvania resident Mike Purcell told Allen called Trump’s strikes on Iran a “great decision” and said he’s willing to “pay a little more” at the pump.
