" Thank you to Saudi Arabia, but let’s go lower!"…sadly, Donnie, I am sure that you can indeed go lower than you already are.
Everything has a dollar figure according to dotard.
Uh, I was under the impression that lower oil prices weren’t good for Rump’s boss (Vlad the Impaler). Russia’s economy, such as it is, relies heavily on oil prices. In addition, the EU continues to get oil from Iran and ignores this country’s demands to impose sanctions. Didn’t work out quite the way the current WH regime thought it would.
As always…
With the tremendous increase in oil production in the US over the last decade, lower oil prices have a negative impact on large parts of the economy, while helping others. It is basically a wash in the bigger picture.This statement is idiotic in a number of ways. However, since the goal is to make us feel more kindly towards the murderers Trump has decided to embrace, I guess in his mind it is good PR?
Notice he isn’t talking about the stock market much these days.
