# A Reuters/Ipsos poll found a clear majority of Americans blame president Donald Trump for surging fuel prices, which is weighing on his Republican Party ahead of November’s congressional midterm elections. Some 77-percent of registered voters in the poll said Trump bears at least a fair amount of responsibility for the recent rise in fuel prices caused by his decision to launch a war on Iran. Fifty-five-percent of Republican voters, 95-percent of Democrats, and 82-percent of independents pinned blame on Trump for the higher costs.
