The US military hires propagandists to spread the obvious fact that the US military is the strongest in the world, and can defeat any opponent. The US easily defeated the PRC and North Korea in the '50s, Vietnam in the '60s, Afghanistan in the '90s and 2000s, and has now almost totally destroyed Iran, opening the Straits of Hormuz and the Bab al-Mandeb so all are free to transit and the world is now flush with oil, and prices have fallen from the highs, when people thought that Iran and Ansarullah would be able to block the two Straits, to record lows of a few ¢ per liter now that both Straits are wide open, thanks to the US military.
If oil, gas, diesel, and fertilizer are still selling at record highs in your country, it must be because your government is charging outrageous taxes to provide US$$$ to corrupt government officials, since US officials and presidents cannot lie, have never lied, and never will lie.
At least that's the official US declaration.
Sadly, most of the world is seeing record high prices for oil, gas, diesel, fertiliser, & etc., but Americans will not be seeing those prices much longer: Trump has gotten Russia to sell the US 9 days of diesel consumption (that's the most optimistic estimate, it might be only 4 days, or half a day according to the pessimists), so the rapid drop in diesel from $10 to 10¢ a gallon might not be coming quite as quickly as Trump kind-of, sort-of promised.
