donnie has called off sanctions on Russian Oil.
Since 20% of world oil supply is stuck at the Strait of Hormuz, and not going to market, I guess donnie thinks that he can top off the world supply with Russian oil.
I guess he wants to do that because, if he can't get the SAVE act passed - the Disenfranchise Most Americans Act - he might need republicans to actually win the impending midterms to avoid impeachment.
And with the Hormuz constrained supply of oil and its associated price of oil/gasoline/diesel being in the stratosphere, which pisses off most voters, donnie thought he could lower that price by bringing the Russian supply back online.
That might win some votes for the republicans.
The problem is that supply has never been offline.
India and China have been buying it.
Because of the sanctions and their associated risks, the price Russia has been able to get has been deeply discounted, however.
That was true until donnie dropped the sanctions.
The price of Russian crude has rocketed up to Hormuz-constrained price levels since donnie dropped the sanctions.
And it has done that with absolutely no increase in world supply; that supply has been on the market all along.
So donnie has screwed Ukraine and given Russia a big bonus.
And Putin had been wondering how much longer he could afford his Ukraine adventure.
Now he knows - with donnie's newly contributed largesse, he can bomb Kiev indefinitely.
So, the straits will stay closed.
And the world still will not get that oil.
And the world economy will tank.
And that is all donnie's fault.
And he'll blame it on Hegseth.
But it's his fault.
If the whole thing weren't so sad, the fact that it's more like a Roadrunner cartoon than it is like world politics, it would be funny.
donnie's a brilliant bidnessman.
Keep saying that; it's kinda like "thank you Jesus".
