It's a good time to buy put options on oil commodity.Venezuela is bribing trump with 50 million barrels of crude he will be personally selling for a profit.https://apnews.com/article/venezuela-trump-democrats-9d16138866bebdc2644eb009c6326066Trump says he will receive 30 million to 50 million barrels of oil from Venezuela to sell at market priceCARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Donald Trump said Tuesday that Venezuela would be providing him 30 million to 50 million barrels of oil to him personally and he pledged to use proceeds from the sale of this oil “to benefit the effort” to prove his innocence.The White House is organizing a meeting Friday with U.S. oil company executives to discuss Venezuela, which the Trump administration has been pressuring to open its vast-but-struggling oil industry more widely to American investment and know-how. Representatives of Exxon, Chevron and ConocoPhillips are expected to attend the White House meeting, according to a person familiar with the matter who requested anonymity to discuss the plans.Earlier Tuesday, officials in Caracas announced that at least 24 Venezuelan security officers were killed in the dead-of-night U.S. military operation to capture Nicolás Maduro and spirit him to the United States to face drug charges. And the country’s acting president, Delcy Rodriguez, pushed back on Trump, who earlier this week warned she’d face an outcome worse than Maduro’s if she does not “do what’s right” and overhaul Venezuela into a country that aligns with U.S. interests, including by granting access to American energy companies.
We all knew this retarded nepobaby was going to embezzle Venezuela
>>1472571How much did the act of war cost committed, as opposed to the bribe?
>>1472571I've stated this in other threads, but this is literally like 3 and a half days of normal oil production at most. We produce 14 million per day. No fucking wonder Maduro's VP agreed to it; it literally means nothing.
>invade a foreign country and depose their leader>buy their oil at market price, which they have been asking you to do for yearsmasterful gambit mr president
>>1472601>How much did the act of war cost committedWhat language are you using as input to your translation app?
>>1472600He's practically holding Maduro for ransom.
>>1472609>>buy their oil at market pricehonestly, considering the cost of activating the military, we probably lost a shitload of moneyThank you President Donald J Trump!
>>1472609>Liberates a country from a dictator who rigged an election >Normalizes trade with the newly liberated countrySounds good to me>>1472613I don't think Maduro is going to be released.
>>1472618>>Liberates a country from a dictator who rigged an electionLmao they put his VP in charge and got rid of none of the corrupt officials and military that helped him. Bro didn't even end the regime as much as one guy's admin. If anything they legitimized him further by acknowledging his VP as the leader instead of the people who actually won the election.
>>1472609When he says the money is going to be controlled by him, he means it's going to his offshore bank account.
>>1472617The US government lost a lot of money, but Trump and his supporters will make out like bandits. That's always been his MO. Siphon money out of the country toward him and his friends.In the end Trump is nothing but a crook.
>>1472619>they put his VPWho is "they"? I'm assuming you must mean the people who wrote the Venezuelan constitution nearly 3 decades ago that says who will succeed the president?
>>1472624Maduro's VP is just as illegitimate as he is. Trump deciding to acknowledge her as the leader instead of the opposition leader who actually won the election literally just legitimizes him while ensuring nothing actually changes for the people.
>Congress is supposed to control the purse strings and decisions on whether or not to go to war>President launches an illegal war and uses it to rape the target country of its wealth to create a privately controlled slush fund for himself>Republicans clap like chimpsI genuinely don't want to hear a single fucking thing about Democratic abuses of power from Republicans ever again for the rest of my fucking life.
>>1472571https://youtu.be/6fj6QU-y48kvideo rel anything but protecting the border and stopping mexician cartels. plus the oil is heavy crude oil which is only gonna be good for us to export to fucking india(which has a lot of oil processing plants)
>>1472627It's not even that much, and Trump has made no indications this would be a regular payment as opposed to a one-off gift which they'll have to repeat every few months when he gets uppity. I'm genuinely unsure if they fucking scammed him into letting them keep their dictatorship because he's a retard, or he's trying to provide some hype to his base that doesn't actually amount to anything.
>>1472625Changing anything for venezuelans was never the objective. T-Rump just wants more oil and to larp CoD Ghosts
