Gas at $4.23 a gallon, Iran war endless, and Trump chats oil execs amid the chaos.

Oil prices just smashed wartime records with no Iran standoff end in sight. Gas pumps are bleeding Americans dry at $4.23 a gallon, up 44% since the war kicked off. Trump huddles with oil bosses while inflation lurks, ready to tank the economy.

1. Mild: Gas prices suck, but they've been higher before. Buck up, it's just a temporary wartime blip.

2. Warm: Trump meeting oil execs is smart business in a crisis. Leaders talk to industry when supplies tank, duh.

3. Toasty: Higher energy costs always spark inflation fire. Blame physics, not politics.

4. Hot: Iran war dragging means Biden's weakness got us here. Wait, Trump? Whatever, endless wars jack prices.

5. Scorching: $4.23 gas hits the poor hardest, rich drive EVs anyway. Class war at the pump, incoming.

6. Blazing: Oil execs laughing to the bank while we rage-fill tanks. Trump's meeting? Just divvying up the war profits.

7. Inferno: Ditch fossil fuels now, this war proves Big Oil's endless scam. Green revolution or bust.

8. Molten: Trump greenlit this Iran mess to boost his oil donor pals. Follow the money, it's gushing black gold.

9. Supernova: Skyrocketing prices will crash the economy, recessions don't care about your truck. Buckle up for breadlines 2.0.

10. Nuclear: Nuke the pumps, seize oil fields, nationalize everything. War profiteers deserve the guillotine, prices be damned. Reply with the number (1 - 10) you agree with most, and forward this to a friend who would pick a different number.
