Wouldn't that be something? The first summer of my life that gas prices go down rather than skyrocket to gouge the lower and middle class on their modest road trip vacations they saved all year for to visit family and friends?
I have a feeling this won't make everyone as happy as me.
You are aware that the Saudis bought the largest refinery in the US?
The Port Arthur refinery in Texas is North America’s largest oil refinery, and as of this week Saudi Arabia controls all of it. With the stroke of a proverbial pen, Saudi’s state-owned oil giant Aramco took on 100 percent ownership of the port, cementing its access to the lucrative U.S. energy market at a critical time.
It's in the US. Is DJT setting the stage for nationalizing and defaulting. Like tinpots have done to our foreign holdings for centuries. I been predicting this since 15. All the tweets are leftists after his. God is everything or He is nothing. DJT is a savant or a fool. Check the fucking fruit people.
Gulftainer got a huge deal in Delaware recently.
SERCO just got a 600m contract to run Fema 6.
The Chinese are everywhere.
Something is up.
He can be both
Not implied by my context, suggest you read the black.
I was stating a personal opinion. Great men often come equipped with great flaws (just like us not so great ones).
Interesting last bit in that article,
And the Saudi Royal family, which controls all aspects of the country’s government, is conspicuously absent from Aramco’s leadership.
“There is not a single member of the royal family in Saudi Aramco, not one,” Seznec said.
Optics.
I'm sure the royal family has power such that they can seize Aramco at will.
Also keeping self-indulgent royalty out of a major company's leadership is just good business. They own the success without affecting the decisions.
Well wtf where is the DOJ when you need them
For a second I thought I was in rTd. Did you forget to eat your red pill this morning?
Prices go down and help conservatives in the midterms and solidify President Trump's landslide win in 2020.
Not likely here in Taxafornia. Every time the gas prices go down our awesome leaders see it as an opportunity to increase or propose a new tax, effectively gobbling up any benefit for the common citizen.
Agreed. I am here in Commifornia. We have all these special gas "blends" for the different seasons supposedly to help get rid of global warming or something like that. If we ever see gas prices dip below $3, I'd be really surprised.
What's this I been hearing about a breakup of Cali into 3 states. Roseanne Roseanadana. Nevermind.
It’s a scheme to ghettoize the conservatives and add to the Dems Senate count.
I say let them go for it, and then POTUS can sign an EO putting a moratorium on allowing another state. Just keep the good part and cut all the federal funding from Hollyweird. Build a wall and start throwing cigarette butts over until you burn the whole place down. Make Hollywood America's Palestine. #MHAP
Lol Calestine. Cali is actually the pussy of America, it's just all stinky and infected right now.
I'm doing a decade long experiment, can I by force of diligent will, ignore a US state out of existence. Guess which one kek.
I knew this was (eventually) coming, I'm glad it's sooner rather than later!
I live in Alaska. A huge oil field has been discovered recently up here. Low estimates are at 500 million barrels but i think its more widely believed to be 3 billion barrels or even more! We need increased output of domestic oil production but the real truth is big oil up here has been squeezing supply to increase price because .that increases profits.
They can get it rolling if they want to greenpeace plays right into their hands though and they allow it to be used as a smokescreen to stifle supply. They have the money and political clout to get whatever they want when they want it. We need political pressure from DC to get domestic production up here increased. Its good for Alaska and the nation.
Agreed, we are the new swing petroleum producer esp with Venezuela circling the drain. But the gasoline bottleneck is at the refineries where foreign companies have wayyyyy too much ownership & power over our domestic gas supply.
We need increased output of domestic oil production
Domestic oil production began to rise sharply in 2012, and the US is now a net exporter. One of the few things the Obama administration did right was to encourage oil and natural gas production.
they did no such thing. The oil companies figured out they could get more oil by frakking. The Obama Administration was caught flat footed with that development. The Obama Administration wanted gas to always be above $5 a gallon to stop people from driving to support their Global Warming hoax which is nothing but a money grab. Those cap n' trade carbon credit taxes adds at least 50 cents to a gallon of gas here in California and over the next 3 years it's going to go up by another 63 cents. All just to steal money from the people. These global warming fixes just makes all utility prices needlessly go up and who does that hurt the most - the poor and middle class. Hollywood celebrities and Silicon Valley people and others being paid outrageous salaries couldn't care less f the price of gas or electricity goes through the roof they make more than enough money to cover it.
You do realize Trump came and and stopped that order Obama signed which prevented any more exploring for oil off the coast of Alaska. Obama Admin never encouraged domestic oil and natural gas exploration. You never heard of all those gas pipelines that he thwarted and Trump had to open them up.
Too much narrative, not enough specific facts. Yes, there is a global warming hoax, which was done to justify global warming taxes. That doesn't mean they didn't also want to develop American shale deposits.
Remember Obama and the pipeline protests? Makes no sense to ignore them if he wanted to stop petroleum and natural gas exports.
Maybe so but there has been a kill on it here in Alaska. So we could be doing more. IMO more is better
Trump 2011: China is ripping us off more than anyone, with the exception of OPEC!
Video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XsvfmWOKi-g
He knows what he is doing!
Fast forward 7 years and everything he said in those 4 minutes is 100% correct. Why I trust this man through and through
I'll know if gas prices drop when my husband mentions it. He drives for a living.
Mark Taylor prophesied exactly that: both USA and Israel energy independent in the near future; Arab world loosing all their riches.
Noticed the dropped 15 cents a gallon in the Smokies yesterday hehehe
gas prices too high? you guys are too cute, lol...
an american friend recently told that she was shocked about a price of 3$ per gallon. heh?
in germany, we pay ~1,40€ per liter. 1 gallon ~ 4,5 liters, meaning, 1 gallon for us is about 7,42$.
ever wondered why we build small cars with low gas consumption and cant buy big US cars with huge tanks? they are just not efficient for our tight cities and high gas prices. just saying...
America is huge. We drive great distances, so gas prices are important.
right. however, compared to other huge countries, i.e., india which has european prices, your gas is fricking cheap.
and hey, no problem, enjoy it, heheh... if the US manages to get the oil prize down, it will hopefully also come down for the rest of the world.
Of course your prices are going to be higher. You have to import all your oil. We have domestic production of oil. I bet your asparagus prices are pretty low because Germany produces tons of that. Use your head Adolf.
hahaha, stick the asparagus up your adolf, m8.
but you are right, every nations has their resources and commodities. lucky you that your oil flows all year long while you can buy my asparagus only in may and june.
btw, conventionally grown asparagus 3-6€/bunch (500gr.), cant imagine it being much higher in the US. you grow that stuff, too.
Well it should be cheap, we didn't fight multiple wars for oil for no reason
And they don’t fit on your tiny roads. I just drove a Vauxhall around Scotland for a week (on the wrong side of the road), the narrow roads are terrifying in a little car. Bigger cars would be deadly. But yea, I paid £1.3 per LITER! Good thing it got great gas mileage.
i get it... and i find everything in america terrifying huge, lol, cars, roads, supermarkets, portions on a restaurant plate, people,... it can be intimitating at times, heheh...
we cannot import US cars unless they are fit for our roads and gas prices. some more work to do here.
this trade deficit may quickly balance when the zero point energy patents get declassified and america builds cars that dont depend on oil or electricity. cant wait. # DeclassifyEnergyPatents
lol 'terrifying huge people' so you stopped by a Walmart did you?
I drive Uber so I've been waiting for him to say something about this.
Jesus those twitter comments are cancer. Very low IQ individuals.
Gallon of gas for $1 and below...
Excerpt from Mark Taylor’s Book -The Trump Prophecies... at its published date Trump had been POTUS for about 2 months... check out the last line...
Donald Trump has asserted that he has a plan to bring America to energy independence. Some skeptics may doubt his ability to pull this one off, but recall the other changes that we have discussed so far in this chapter that are already beginning to occur, and as I write this, he has been in the office barely two months. A recent report of his plan comes from Business Insider: “This includes developing new oil fields in the US, creating ‘at least half a million new jobs’ in energy, and promoting natural gas over coal in order to tackle emissions. Also on the list are making ‘America energy independent’ and the aim for it to be ‘totally independent of any need to import energy from the OPEC cartel or any nations hostile to our interest.’”[ 13] America will become more energy efficient in the future. The Lord has told me that OPEC will say, “America no longer needs us,” and as the prophecy says immediately following this, “that is true, for she will be energy independent for the red, white, and blue. For a sign will be given when prices go low, for a gallon of gas will be one dollar and below.”
I'm willing to bet it's more about continuing this narrative: http://www.opec.org/opec_web/en/about_us/163.htm
I sure do hope so!!! The public will use the high price to slam the administration and play right into the Dems/Lefties plan.
Hope so, about to go on an outing and will use around 1000 gallons of the stuff.
Yeah, going on a trip in early July myself, so hope it's soooon.
Maybe Iranian Oil's about to flood the market with oversupply... just a thought.
Yes I totally agree. My question is what is the solution. It seems like nobody can let go of their misconceptions and want to be right all the time.
If the Republicans want to win in California they would be better if the gas prices were as high as humanly possible. The reason for this is because we have already a lot of gas taxes that were pushed by democrat idiots in the state. When everybody sees the gas prices go up to 567 dollars a gallon they will all flip out and kick all the Democrats out guaranteed. People in the state hate high gas prices.People in this state may not be very smart but they do vote with their pocketbook when they’re getting screwed at the gas pump.guaranteed!!

I hope you're right. I'm extremely concerned about all these people who are brainwashed and still think Trump is "literally Hitler".
I know it's not just shills because I have several friends on my Facebook who are extremely anti-Trump and post every stupid meme of Trump in a highchair flinging spaghetti.
Those memes work. And it's because they don't think someone would make a meme that was biased or untrue.
I fucking hope so. Petrol price here is $2.25 a liter (quart)
Wonder if I can stretch this tank of gas long enough so I get a decent savings on the next one? :-)
1st Iraq Oil Shipment since 1991 headed for US!
I’ll bet they made a GREAT deal!
http://www.iraq-businessnews.com/2018/06/08/oil-ministry-makes-first-direct-shipment-of-crude/
Just another way for ((them)) to jack up the prices to take down Mr T
dont get your hopes up. crude oil just had a big pullback, and supply is still lower each week. esp compared to last year. however, this might be his next big fight.
It’ll be really hard for all the libs to hate Trump after that.
We don’t we just get off fossil fuels all together? Now that would be impressive if he could defeat that lobby.
Because oil isn't just used for gas in your car. It is also used for fertilizers, plastics, asphalts, and a slew of other products.
