18. Pundits Saying US Oil/Gas Reserves

Leave us in a better position to weather this storm.

Idiots. US oil and gas will be exported to sell to the highest bidder and domestic supply will go down and prices will go up (for fuel and electricity). Which mean more inflation is on the horizon. It also pisses off our former allies because they are suffering due to these incompetent actions.

The longer we need to continue to bomb Iran to slow down attacks the more apparent the failure of the Trump administration and Israeli intelligence to properly assess the situation.
