Watching Rachel tonight, I have to wonder-- was it just Netanyahu who encouraged Trmp ? Or did Putin cast a big vote ? [View all]

Russia benefits more than any other country from a sharp increase in oil prices. Nations not committed to Russian sanctions will be quick to begin circumventing them. So -- one oil shortage coming up, and Putin's coffers will soon be jingling again.

Sure, it's a conspiracy theory, but our PEDOTUS is an unending source of real-world conspiracies and just plain foolish bullshit, so if you say "that doesn't make much sense", that's not a criticism, merely an acknowledgement that that's how it goes in Trmpland.
