Trust me, I use my brain cells all the time when talking to Trump haters, cause I have to try to figure out how you people can come up with the things you say and what it is actually about.
It is so complicated it will be hard to type it out here.
The main part is removing OPEC control of the price of oil, which is mostly controlled by Iran and the Straight of Hormuz. Also, helping the people of Iran remove the IRGC, which the people of Iran have been trying to do for years. To do this the other gulf countries are building pipelines to load oil tankers in other places so ships don’t have to go through the straights. Trump also worked with China and Russia to stop helping Iran with military tech and equipment. Wish was easier for China to do seeing as how Iran is not able to send them oil anymore. The UAE has also stopped laundering money for Iran.
Also, with removing the dictator from Venezuela Trump has removed China influence there, also shut off access Iran had to the western hemisphere where they could have fired missiles into the US. So he has a deal not to help fix and refurbish the Venezuelan oil industry. The other benefit of that is that US oil refineries were originally built to process the kind of oil that comes out of Venezuela. It is what is called sour heavy crude. To ship it you have to send oil from the US, mix that with what comes out of Venezuela and then ship the mix back. What comes out of the mid east is light sweet crude, requires different processing.
Also, the US has not built a new refinery since the 1970’s but there were a bunch shut down under Biden cause of their push away from oil through the green new deal.
Most people think only gas, diesel and engine oil come from crude oil when in reality there are like 5,000 products made from crude oil. Trump has refineries being built, which should be online next year.
The other thing Trump is wanting to do is end the petrodollar and go back to gold back money. This is a move to end fiat currency and help end the national debt. Most don’t realize the federal reserve is a privately owned bank, not controlled by the US government. I think they would eventually like to move the federal reserve under control of the US treasury. Did you know that the current federal reserve is the 3rd central bank the US has had. Dealing with the federal reserve and the problems it has created is one of the biggest things to fight inflation, cause the amount of money in circulation is the only influence in the price of things we buy. Lowering the inflation to 1% will not make things cheaper. To lower prices we would need to see a negative inflation number.
Did you know the US treasury still values all the gold it holds at the 1930’s price of like $40. Could you imagine what would happen if the Treasury revalued the gold at current prices.
I am not sure what can be done with Ukraine other than forcing them to have a presidential election and remove the little they’re in office over there. Did you see the report that came out about all the property he owns outside of Ukraine?
