THAT YOU CANNOT MANIPULATE THINGS THAT YOU DON'T PHYSICALLY OWN ANYMORE AND THAT THE GAS SHORTAGE CANNOT HIDE UNDER THE CARPET!HORMUZ WILL OPEN AGAIN WHEN YOU HAND OVER TRUMP AND NETANYAHU TO THE ICC!https://xcancel.com/atrupar/status/2090461307665342887
The funniest thing is Treasury buying back its own bonds to lower yields. The most retarded shit ever.
Bessent here. Patriots our OP is a tranny faggot. Move along. No problems.
>>541128874Cope. Alpha gays run this show.Bend over.
>>541129393They just hit buttons on a computer. Let's be serious.
>>541128874the strait is openShips are using the omani route.
>>541128874
>>541128874>>541129393>>541131973It's all jewish circus. Best advice I can give is to just sit back and enjoy the final act.
>>541128874They do understand, they just can't say it because that would be admitting that they are wrong. And of course, Trump will never apologize. Most of these cucks are just doing their job, which is to cover for their boss.
There's going to be a military coup in the US at some point, and the US military will absolutely crush anyone trying to stop them here at home. Eventually the true power in this country will take control of it. Pic related.
>>541128874He understands perfectly. This is for the drooling masses.
>>541132276That's some powerful hopium you're smoking there, careful with that shit bro.
>>541132451It's inevitable. The US military isn't going to dissolve when the country collapses. It's going to take full control over the government, because it has the weapons to do it. It's that simple, and nothing can stop it. They WILL take over the power vacuum. And without anyone being able to stop them, the other branches of government will bend the knee or be destroyed.
>>541128874They're on track to run the US military out of fuel, the strategic reserve is there for the US military to operate under a total wartime shipping freeze and Trump's regime has drunk it up like a milkshake.
>>541128874Gaytriots are in control.Trust the plan.Who sucks off the cocksucker?The movie has only started!Q
>>541128874The Trump administration has been manipulating it extremely successfully since the start of this Iran business. I think you, OP, are the one that fails to understand the market is no longer forward looking but algo driven
>>541134572>the market is algo drivenTruth social charging $100k/month to access Trump posts seconds quicker than everyone else proves this point. Nobody is paying that apart from market makers that are letting their AI and algos make split second decisions with millions of dollars based off Trump's ruminations as he takes his morning shit.
>>541134185Were a net exporter of oil, if it gets that bad then Trump will just ban the export of oil and we'll be drowning in it within a week.
>>541134572>The Trump administration has been manipulating it extremely successfully since the start of this Iran business.The Chinese are the ones keeping oil low, but also driving up the price of gasoline. Trump is accomplishing nothing but draining our stockpiles.
>>541134912>Just effectively nationalize our oil industry!That seems kinda Anti-Republican somehow?
>>541134916China has to import like two thirds of the oil it uses, the US is a net exporter of oil
>>541135038https://www.energypolicy.columbia.edu/how-china-is-managing-lower-oil-imports/
>>541135000Doesn't bother me any, I'm a bit of a socialist myself, you know.
>>541135079>decreased its crude oil imports by 30% percent in April–June 2026, year-over-year, with its June imports plunging to the lowest level sinceOctober 2016. And China apparently did this without anymeaningful declinein economic activitySooo they did it by using their reserve stockpile>>541134916>Trump is accomplishing nothing but draining our stockpilesIs this you? Kvetching about Trump doing the same thing?
>>541134912Cost to extract per barrel is importantWe're just as like to starve for oil if we keep it to ourselves because it'll just sit in the ground
>>541135196China had magnitudes more stockpiled than we did, and we'd been drawing down our reserves for quite a while, even during Biden.The larger point is that Trump can't tell the Fuel market to sell gasoline at half the price set by world markets. Or he would have already.
>>541135224True, but not when the government/military is buying it which is the point I was responding to
>>541132076kys ai slop clanker lover, whatever point you tried to make is ignored, draw it yourself faggot and ill read it
>>541135276We still produce more than we use and China produces less than they use. >Trump can't tell the Fuel market to sell gasoline at half the price set by world marketsNo but he can ban exporting it and we're still sitting on more oil than we can use, albeit probably for a prohibitively expensive price but at least it's there, China has no such option
>>541135313This conflict is achieving the exact opposite of what Trump campaigned on domestically. After running on affordability for average Americans, he can't just pretend it was always a Librul Meme Term.I mean he can, and is, but no one is gonna buy that line.By ratcheting up prices AND starting foreign wars, he's done a 180 on both his foreign and domestic platform.
>>541132276The US military is a muttified force of non Whites maxing out VA benefits, absolutely desperate Whites, and is led by the most ZOGified class in the world aka commissioned officers. This latter reality is not new: the US military fixed bayonets at Whites protesting the forcing of negros on them. You're delirious if you think there is going to be a coup. What will eventually happen is the hard power of ZOG finally buckles, but at that point the jews will have transitioned to a new golem for its fighting (jeetland.) On the bright side, this plan will fail.
>>541135460Ok, I agree, why'd you change the subject entirely though?
>>541135551Because I don't believe the Chinese will run out of oil; and I don't believe Americans will stand for $8 gasoline, and won't be consoled that we have unlimited $8 gasoline.
>>541134912>Were a net exporter of oil, if it gets that bad then Trump will just ban the export of oilAgreed >and we'll be drowning in it within a week.Only if Trump also nationalises the oil companies. Companies aren't going to continue extracting oil at the same rate to sell for less than the global market value, let alone for a probable loss.
>>541135313The government buying it doesn't keep the trucks running though; there's more truck drivers than people in the military. If we have to cut exports entirely the government will end up the sole customer
>>541135794If Trump starts bullying Big Oil, the GOP will suddenly discover it's missing balls, you can trust on that.
>>541135675But think about poor Israel, Iran being prevented from having a nuke is worth having 10 dollars a gallon gas.
>>541135675>>541135794>>541135810I have no delusions that the economy won't be basically collapsed and the entire west will be in a deep recession but I also think collapse is inevitable since it's all built on a house of cards and if Trump n Co manage to get through this Iran/oil ordeal without triggering it then it's going to be the next thing to trigger it, the AI bubble, idk, but a debt based economy eventually has to pay what it owes
>>541129393When you show up as a big buyer of old debt with worse yield than what is currently available, people can offload onto you and then use that cash to buy bonds with better yields. As demand goes up, yields come down. The problem is, the US treasuries market is worth $31.5 trillion, so their buyback program is probably like trying to fix a rupturing dam with a piece of scotch tape. The actual smart move would have been to realize, 1.5 years ago, that we can't do 5+ years in a row with above-desirable inflation, without breaking something. Literal retards posting about burrito prices are completely missing the point.
>>541129393I come from the future, i guarantee you it works just wornders. Disregard flag.
>>541137013Kek, what's it like down there with this crazy inflation? How do you do day to day life? Does anybody even bother trying to save money? How do you negotiate wages for work? Do you recalibrate weekly?
>>541128874They've described him as the "first openly gay Treasury Secretary."Which logically segues into the question, how many closeted gay US Treasury Secretaries have there been?
>>541128874all our problems will be solved if someone stops being a little bitch and launches the nukes
>>541136773If the West is doomed, let it be by something more dignified that some pants-sharting shyster and his girlish twatting.
>>541137881I really fail to see how that would help anything at all.
>>541137935thats because you are a pussy little bitch boy like a typical boomer do nothing retard
>>541138036Trump could solve this "impending Iranian nuclear threat" the same way he solved the "impending North Korean nuclear threat". By going home, shutting the fuck up, and occupying himself with something domestic, like grabbling more taxpayer monies.You're too young to remember when Kim Jon Un was the pre-eminent atomic threat to launch a ballistic nuclear warhead at us. Or something like that.
>>541138230he solved that threat by threatening to push the big red button
>guys, we've got a spike in oil prices today that I don't really understand
>>541138322No, actually he solved it by bumping bellies with another egomaniacal buffoon who can score under 60 on any golf course as if by magic, and then forgetting that they ever had any disagreement.Both of them got to look like Diplomatic Big Bois.
>>541138529lmao ur so retarded and a huge pussy too
>>541128874I went to the store today and paid $56 for a loaf of bread, a small piece of salmon, 2 cans of crushed tomatoes, 1/2 lb of swiss cheese and 2 tubes of toothpaste. That's my dinner for tomorrow and the toothpaste will last me 2 weeks. Imagine having three kids. You would need $1500 a month just for food. They need to eliminate EBT completely. It drove up the price of groceries.
>>541138655South Korea realized what the rest of the world is finally concluding about Trump; that both he and Un are colicky babies. They just want praise and for other world leaders to tell them what badass big-boy Winners they are, and to hand them prizes and bags of their followers money to snuggle with, and then they are good.
>>541138968
>>541139016no one cares about worst korea, they are speed running feminist extinction
>>541129393It was always going to end this way, it's a math equation and the answer is always YCC and QE.
>lol
>>541137935Boy I sure do, though only with a peer nuke power. Imagine how bright the future would be if we could rebuild our shithole cities from scratch
>>541139239Here's what would solve Iran and a bunch of other problems; the next time Trump scurries into a catering container and loads onto a truck, drive the truck into a deep, deep lake.Then tell JD "Take the fucking hint".That would clear up a lot of bullshit immediately.
>>541139427yea or we could just nuke everyone we dont like LMAO EZ GG NO REfucking pansies all of you
>>541128874>but y r duh oil prices spike kingFuck this whole admin.
>>541137935>I really fail to see how that would help anything at all.Nukes are an instant win. Once one is used, the side using it automatically wins.
>>541139606Or we could focus on autarky and not even have to give a shit what happens outside our borders
>>541139606>w-we could just nuke you!You know who else has nukes? India.Youre literally no more special than fucking india.
>>541139768nukes aren't real, retard
can he UNDERSTANDUNDERSTANDUNDERSTANDUNDERSTANDUNDERSTANDTHE CONCEPT OF LOVE
>>541128874We're heading towards an 2008 level crash at this rate
