If the price goes down: "I opened the strategic oil reserve to lower the price for you!" If it doesn't: "I opened the strategic oil reserve to stop the price going higher for you!"

If it goes up: "Imagine how much higher the price would have been if I hadn't opened the strategic oil reserves!"

He is trying to disconnect his BBB bill from inflation and gas prices to sell it to the public. BBB is the last thing that he would be able to do, so he is trying his best.
