SS: Donald Trump has made a combative return to the world stage, accusing oil producers of prolonging the Ukraine war by failing to cut prices, and threatening tariffs on all US imports.
“You’ve got to bring it down, which, frankly, I’m surprised they didn’t do before the election. That didn’t show a lot of love. Surprised by that,” Trump said. “If the price came down, the Russia-Ukraine war would end immediately.”
He added: “They should have done it long ago. They’re very responsible, actually, to a certain extent, for what’s taking place. Millions of lives are being lost.”
War is the most profitable business on earth.
If that is true, these business man should be held accountable the lives lost.
I don’t understand this, Why would they lower the price? The West is embargoing Russian oil, so there is less on the market so obviously prices rise. If he wanted prices to drop he could end that, though I don’t agree with it. He said he would end this war on day one and now it seems like he has no idea how to, cause lower oil prices have nothing to do with. He could lower prices buy making America a first serve country, X amount has to be processed and sold in the US before any goes overseas. We already produce more oil than any country in history, more than we use, but we ship much of it overseas for larger profits. Make the monthly allotment of gasoline sold here first at a set price like OPEC does making the whole world meet their price. We don’t need the to blackmail us into not raising prices. Any extra can go overseas.
