Oil is owned, price fixed and abused by two groups. Opec; we all know them; oligarchs and princes; ie, Kings and Queens with blood of influence of revolution to enslave the masses and own land; and Sovereign Ownership, which; always screws the citizen of profit and placed all Liability and Fragility if Failure in them. Presidents; even if Trump says he’ll lower groceries and gas, Cannot do either. And gutting agencies that attempt to monitor fraud, Is Haneous in an already failing fragile system of checks and balances.

Wasn’t our newly elected god-king supposed to bring prices down? Huh, funny how that works, who would’ve thought the deranged billionaire who wants to dismantle the government would blatantly lie. If only a broad coalition of prominent figures spanning political ideologies warned us about this.

Between Canada and Mexico, the US imports over 7 million barrels of oil a day. This produces 140 million gallons of gas a day.


The tariffs will add 70 cents MORE a day per gallon.


Before the rocket scientists as dumb as Trump says “we will produce our own!!!”. Every. Single. Oil. Executive will tell you that it is cheaper to import oil from Canada and Mexico than it is to process it ourselves. They will also tell you that it would take @ 3 years to ramp up production to produce as much as we import from Canada and Mexico. The production cost in labor and equipment to get to that point is many, many billions. That doesn’t even factor the cost of the oil.

When Trump is rolling his head back and forth at the podium growling how he will do all these magical things-the dumb ass cult members laps it up.

How did people get to be so gullible.

Oh… load up on nearly everything else. Including MAGA hats, shirts, flags, bumper stickers. Trump ties and other clothing because all of it is made in China.

Clearly, within weeks of Trump taking office; economic warfare on the lower/middle class has begun and will continue to get worse until the ultra rich achieve their goal of the majority being stuck in inescapable servitude eternally or are overthrown by the people willing to stand up to this nonsense. Use your head; billionaires do not have your interests in mind!

Most of Trumps army is middle class and retirees. They are going to get smoked. Trump and Musk is going to pinch away at social security. The army will then blame everybody but Trump.

If the Trump army wants some financial relief-they need to stop doing fist pumps and belly bumps every time Trump growls.
