The futures and spot markets set the price of oil. No doubt Trump's actions in Iran have affected supply and influenced the markets. I agree that he needs to end this Iranian fiasco asap but he can't just write an EO setting fuel prices. Saddens me when I see conservatives advocating for government price controls.

Big Oil?
What a dumb thing to say. Trump has had a mostly fractious relationship with the industry. And almost everything he has done as POTUS has been to make OIL PRICES AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. Just because they are temporarily higher than they have been in service of a longer-term goal doesn't mean anything.

I mean, did you see UAE is exiting OPEC? OPEC has been the bane of every US POTUS since it was formed 50 years ago.

Does Big Oil have dirt on Trump? Or is Trump getting rich off these high prices too? Because Trump has the power to make it right.


What do you want President Trump to
do about “Big Oil”?

Yeah, it is. Because the United States is the one helping Israel, not the other way around. Israel started this shite and dragged us into it.

By the way, is Israel helping in the Strait of Hormuz? Do they have any ships there?

How about in Iraq and Afghanistan?

Thanks for announcing that you are an idiot influenced by 1970s Hollyweird leftist movie themes.

Almost all drilling stopped in August because the price of oil was too low to breakeven.

It costs real money to explore and drill for oil

For the record we know that the thinking and skills of the labor force took a huge hit when so many opted to retire during 2020. The under 50 crowd is dumb and lazy as a rule
