He just said we were 4 weeks from the
spr being empty. Shut the fuck up. You elected a dumbass and you're now defending the lemon like a good sunken coster.
Profanity and insults, that's all you have. God are you filled with hate.
Further proof that it cleary sucks to be you. Or anyone in your miserable personal life.
Shithead.
And regarding SPR (there are dozens of acronyms, shithead, you could have just said Strategic Petroleum Reserve and been clear)...
1) it was Biden who needlessly drained the petroleum reserve for frivolous reasons, and never refilled it.
2) I haven't seen that the U.S. was ever threatened by the Straight of Hormuz shipping interruption. Before the Iran war, we were only getting 2% of our oil from there, and Europe about 20%, neither feeling any great impact from the Hormuz attacks. The major recipient was always China who buys about 90% of Iran's oil, which is about 50% of China's total oil imports.
The only other heavily affected nations were South Korea and Japan. So your argument is bogus.
3) Precisely BECAUSE Iran has been making attacks on ships in the Straight of Hormuz, and really not any great Iranian attacks, just a few harassments to raise a concern that a tanker MIGHT be damaged or sunk by Iran. But because of that, Saudi Arabia and other nations have been moving their oil out through pipelines to the Red Sea or elsewhere on the Arab peninsula. So ultimately, Iran has only succeeded in making their own oil, and the Persian Gulf shipping lane as a whole, less significant or needed. The oil is going out now elsewhere than the Persian Gulf.
4) Further , several nations are now dropping out of OPEC so they are now free of OPEC restrictions on how much oil they can produce and sell. United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia alone now produce millions more barrels daily than Iran was EVER exporting. So over the next 3 or 6 months as UAE and the Saudis further ramp up oil production, whether Iran produces or sells a drop of oil will become increasingly irrelevant.
5) The United States since Trump began his second term, now is not only completely oil-independent, but produces and exports more oil than it EVER has in the past. So the U.S. is able to fill that oil gap for Europe, Japan, Korea, or even China. Which again means Iran's ability to move and sell oil is increasingly irrelevant. And increased Venezuela production is yet another new source.
All of which manifests you have no idea what you're talking about.
It all just amounts to... hate Trump
.
Shihead.
