曾以”保障民生 affordability”承诺重返白宫的总统唐纳德·特朗普，如今正面临因伊朗局势引发的油价波动，这削弱了其核心竞选主张——随着全国燃油成本上升，共和党人在中期选举前面临新的压力。
由于伊朗冲突搅动石油市场，引发供应中断的担忧，汽油价格再次攀升，加剧了美国民众本已因通胀而疲惫不堪的经济压力。
本周，油价自2022年以来首次突破每桶100美元，美国与以色列对伊朗的冲突持续发酵，全球市场动荡，投资者开始计入供应趋紧的风险。
油价走高，汽油和柴油价格快速上涨。

根据GasBuddy的数据，全国汽油平均价格攀升至每加仑3.53美元，较上周上涨59美分。柴油价格也大幅上涨，全国平均价格上涨97美分，达到每加仑4.72美元。
由于国会控制权岌岌可危，汽油价格上涨的不均衡性正成为中期选举的新热点，尤其是在受冲击严重的摇摆州。
周环比涨幅最大的地区是印第安纳州（上涨58美分）、佛罗里达州（57美分）、密歇根州（55美分）、俄亥俄州（54美分）和加利福尼亚州（51美分）。
平均价格最低的地区是堪萨斯州（2.90美元）、俄克拉荷马州（2.95美元）和阿肯色州（2.98美元），而最高的地区是加利福尼亚州（5.14美元）、华盛顿州（4.58美元）和夏威夷州（4.33美元）——这种地区差异可能会加剧中期选举中关于能源成本和通胀的攻击。

这种经济压力正是民主党人急于利用的。去年秋天，民主党在州和地方选举中大力强调”经济可负担性”主题，并取得成效。
在弗吉尼亚州、纽约州和新泽西州等选民受到高住房成本和水电费挤压的地区，民主党候选人抓住特朗普早期的经济举措（包括贸易政策）不放，指责其政策加剧了”经济可负担性危机”，而非缓解。
他们承诺控制能源成本、扩大经济适用房供应并保护中产阶级工资，这一信息在选民中引起共鸣。

随着持续冲突推高汽油价格，白宫正在权衡保护霍尔木兹海峡航运路线的措施，以防止价格进一步上涨。这条水道对全球能源供应至关重要。
伊朗和阿曼之间的狭窄水道霍尔木兹海峡，每天运输约2000万桶石油，占全球液化天然气(LNG)供应的约五分之一。
当该地区爆发冲突时，即使只是中断的威胁也会动摇市场，因为全球大量能源都通过这单一通道运输。

周一晚间，特朗普被问及供应中断风险时表示，他将确保航道畅通，并威胁称若伊朗试图干扰，将予以更严厉报复。
“我不会允许一个恐怖政权将世界作为人质，并试图切断全球石油供应。如果伊朗胆敢如此，他们将面临’更严厉得多’的打击，”特朗普在佛罗里达州的新闻发布会上表示。
“从长远来看，没有伊朗船只、无人机和导弹的威胁，石油供应将大幅更安全，”他补充道。

Gas prices surge, pinching Americans and handing the GOP a new midterm headache
Gas prices climb to $3.53 per gallon, up 59 cents over the past week, according to GasBuddy

President Donald Trump, who rode promises of affordability back to the White House, is now confronting Iran-driven volatility that’s undermining that message as fuel costs rise nationwide — and putting fresh pressure on Republicans heading into the midterms.
With the Iran conflict rattling oil markets and raising fears of supply disruptions, gas prices are climbing again, squeezing Americans already worn down by inflation.
This week, oil prices surged past $100 a barrel for the first time since 2022 as fallout from the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran continued to roil global markets and investors priced in the risk of tighter supply.
With oil higher, gasoline and diesel prices are rising fast.

The national average gas price climbed to $3.53 per gallon, up 59 cents over the past week, according to GasBuddy. Diesel prices also jumped, with the national average up 97 cents to $4.72 per gallon.
With control of Congress at stake, uneven gas price spikes are becoming a new midterm flashpoint, especially in hard-hit battleground states.
The steepest week-over-week increases were in Indiana (up 58 cents), Florida (up 57 cents), Michigan (up 55 cents), Ohio (up 54 cents), and California (up 51 cents).
The lowest average prices were in Kansas ($2.90), Oklahoma ($2.95) and Arkansas ($2.98), while the highest were in California ($5.14), Washington ($4.58), and Hawaii ($4.33) — a regional divide that could sharpen midterm attacks over energy costs and inflation.

That kind of pocketbook pressure is exactly what Democrats have been eager to exploit. Last fall, Democrats leaned heavily on affordability themes in state and local elections, and it paid off.
In places like Virginia, New York and New Jersey, where voters have been squeezed by high housing costs and utility bills, Democratic candidates seized on Trump’s early economic moves, including his trade policy, to argue that his policies were worsening the affordability crisis rather than easing it.
They promised to rein in energy costs, expand affordable housing and protect middle-class wages, a message that resonated with voters.

With the ongoing conflict driving gasoline prices higher, the White House is weighing steps to protect shipping lanes in the Strait of Hormuz and keep prices from climbing further. That waterway is critical to global energy supply.
The Strait of Hormuz, a narrow passage between Iran and Oman, carries roughly 20 million barrels of oil a day and about one-fifth of the global supply of liquefied natural gas (LNG).
When conflict flares in the region, even the threat of disruption can rattle markets because so much of the world’s energy moves through that single corridor.

Asked about the risk of disruptions, Trump said Monday evening he would keep the route open and threatened retaliation if Iran tried to interfere.
“I will not allow a terrorist regime to hold the world hostage and attempt to stop the globe’s oil supply. And if Iran does anything to do that, they’ll get hit at a much, much harder level,” Trump said during a press conference in Florida.
“In the long run, oil supplies will be dramatically more secure without the threat of Iranian ships, drones, missiles,” he added.
