China and Russia are a much bigger threat than Iran was to us.
Just Maybe all of this Tarriff money is going to support these wars.Maybe even attended to pay for wars for big oil. It makes electric cars much more attractive to me than ever before

I'm with you, I was happier when China was paying less than us

I'm with you; I was happier when China was paying $15 a barrel less than us AND WHEN IT WAS strengthening China's currency ON THE WORLD STAGE.

Shoot, man, wouldn't it be awesome if we had to start transferring U.S. dollars into the renminbi before paying Venezuela for the oil that, by the way, we drilled for and invested in all those years ago? ....YEAH, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.

ANYTHING TO SCREW AMERICAN IS GOOD, RIGHT, LUCKY?

TRUMP BAD. TRUMP REAL BAD. RIGHT, LUCKY?

This will probably push China into even more purchases of (theoretically embargoed) Russian crude.
