re: Trump and the Strait success.

quote:

---

The Campaign Promise: Trump repeatedly stated that his economic and drilling policies would reduce overall energy costs by 50%

---

If Trump had not reversed everyone of Biden's energy policies, would oil be more expensive or less expensive for the US right now?

Answer: Higher.

We don't get any oil from Iran. The Strait of Hormuz is a energy wealth shift, exactly like that of Venezuela.

If a leftist was really worried about gas prices they would have opposed Biden shutting down Keystone because Warren Buffett paid Biden handsomely to have it done to protect Buffett's railroad shipping of oil.

Also, everytime that the US has tried to increase refinery operations, the left would oppose that too.
That's two instances that could have had us better prepared for what is happening in 2026.

So please, stop bitching about gas prices simply because you just hate Trump.

Give myself away? Its mocking people like you who are brainwashed

You can not refute ANYTHING that the OP sttated. It's why you turned to the personal attacks.

Even if he WAS doing what he said he would do to Iran, which he isn't, he is doing the exact opposite of what he said originally, which is no new wars.

There it is. IGNORANCE on display.

1- Trump ran on no more NEVER ENDING wars. As in decades long. It's been a few months.

2- He is doing what he stated. And he stated it more than once. Here it is for you:

TIME interview published April 2024, Trump was directly asked:

“If Israel and Iran get into a war, should the U.S. support Israel in striking Iran militarily?”

Trump answered “Yes”, adding that if Iran attacked Israel, “we would be there.”

Trump statements about Iran:

“We'll knock the hell out of them.”
“We're going to have to knock them down.”
“Sure. Without question, absolutely.”

This tells me all I need to know. You don;t know what Trump ran on because you were not listening.

because China has cut oil imports by 50% since the start of the Iran war


Wrong. Because we control the strait.

Thanks JJ. Some people actually believe this, they can just stop importing oil, tell people and factories to use less and voila its done. And they havent had to touch their reserves. People are actually posting this nonsense.

Well if they could do that, why havent they done it years ago and saved themselves trillions of dollars???

China is already paying the fines, why WOULDN'T they take their usual demand if they needed it? It would bone the US economy. Dropping 10%, sure, but HALF due to this at the strait? The math doesn't even add up

---

First it is due to the blockade.

Second, chini is Iran's only customer, if they could get a tanker out do you honestly think chini is paying them a toll, they are buying that oil at a HUGE discount and Iran is begging them to take it.

It’s simple. Biden reversed all of Trump’s 2016 ones. Trump put those back and reversed all of the ones Biden added.

Biden mainly focused on enriching nations not the US and made us more reliant to have to import more energy.
Ever heard of the Green New Deal? You have. Trump ended that shite. It was costing us more energy wise.

There’s quotes about wars in the Middle East. This is an Israeli issue and there’s a segment of the MAGA and conservative movement that doesn’t want the US getting involved in Israel’s battles.

Also, Trump said in June 2025 that we had obliterated Irans nuclear capability after dropping bombs. Was he lying then or just misinformed?

Can you list all the energy policies that Biden had in place that Trump reversed.

If the USA wanted to send a real clear message, people just like the guy above would not be able to speak again. Meanwhile, the Iranian economy crashes.

Look up
Key Rescissions in EO 14148

Everything that made energy more costly for Americans and American companies was reversed.
I’m not posting everything, but I’m 100% correct and you are just being a liberal dumbass

There you are still thinking about Ds

Are all liberal men the same
