India, Aug. 4 -- President Donald Trump attacked major oil companies on Monday, accusing them of making too much money while Americans continue to face high gasoline prices. Trump said oil companies are benefiting from his war against Iran instead of passing lower costs on to consumers.

Trump singled out oil giant Chevron and called on the company to lower gasoline prices. He said he supports free markets but believes oil companies are making too much money under the current situation. Trump said he is a "big free enterprise guy" while criticizing the profits being made by oil companies. He argued that companies should still lower prices for consumers even as they benefit from higher oil prices, according to CNN.
