        I’m sure some US oil execs think they’ll come ahead from this, and they’re probably whispering in Trump’s ear. Except they might not survive the incoming economic shock themselves in a classic capitalists-ignoring-agregate-demand situation.

    Yeah that will show your supporters you love them. They are the largest consumers of oil. With their lifted trucks with nuts and shipping trucks, they will surely love you more.

    Well, that will bring the oil crisis to a head, that’s for sure. How are the American auto workers/manufacturers feeling about all this?
