Serious question, how is this the Biden administration's fault ?
Outside of Bush I can't really blame any president for the price of gas but I may not have all the information.

2020 proved consumers have the power. Gas was under $2.00 a gallon.
At end of the day, if you sell something for $1.00, then raise $4.00, if everyone still buys it, why would you lower it back to $1.00.
Because Americans allowed the country to become car dependent, nobody can complain about the price of gas.

Joe Biden Gas Price Stickers Haven't Aged Well

Stickers blaming Joe Biden for the high price of gasoline have backfired in light of gas prices decreasing.
From late 2021, stickers featuring the president pointing alongside the words "I did that" started appearing at gas pumps across the country. In 2022, the sticker campaign became more well-known in light of rising gas prices, which reached around $4.59 per gallon in May 2022, more than double the price at the start of 2021.
Critics blame Biden for rising gas prices, while Biden blamed disruptions to global supply due to the Covid pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
"I'll tell you what, the little stickers on gas pumps all across the country illustrate the American people know exactly whose fault this is," Texas Senator Ted Cruz said in May 2022. "This was deliberate. This isn't an accident. This isn't an unintended side effect. This is exactly what Joe Biden promised he would do, and it's what he's done."
I did that sticker

In April 2022, The Minnesota Service Station and Convenience Store Association, which represents more than 300 gas stations in Minnesota, issued a statement asking customers to stop using the stickers.
"Retailers in the fueling industry don't like high gas prices just like everyone else. As for the President Biden 'I did that' decals that may be attached to fueling dispensers, fueling retailers continue removing these decals as fast as they are placed by a third-party individual," said Lance Klatt, executive director of the Minnesota Service Station and Convenience Store Association. "A retail business is no place for politics."
Gas prices have fallen since the sticker campaign was at its peak. The national average gas price is now $3.122 per gallon, according to the American Automobile Association (AAA). By December 12, gas prices had fallen 19 percent since September, with 12 straight weeks of decline. There is, though, less demand for gas in winter than in the summer.
With that in mind, posting on X, formerly Twitter, people mocked Biden critics by posting an image of a gas pump that lists prices at $2.219 per gallon. It is unclear where the picture was taken or when, but AAA currently lists Mississippi as the state with the cheapest average gas, at $2.666 per gallon, slightly more than the price shown in the image.
Newsweek reached out to representatives of Biden via email for comment.
Some people on X pointed out that gas prices in some areas of the country are still high, though. In Washington, AAA reports an average price of $4.145 per gallon this week. Hawaii has the highest average price, at $4.662 per gallon.
