Donald Trump has suggested US taxpayers could reimburse energy companies for repairing Venezuelan infrastructure for extracting and shipping oil.
Trump acknowledged that “a lot of money” would need to be spent to increase oil production in Venezuela after US forces ousted its leader, Nicolás Maduro, but suggested his government could pay oil companies to do the work.
“A tremendous amount of money will have to be spent and the oil companies will spend it, and then they’ll get reimbursed by us or through revenue,” the president said.
The US energy secretary, Chris Wright, reportedly plans to meet representatives of Chevron, ConocoPhillips and ExxonMobil at the Goldman Sachs Energy, Clean Tech & Utilities Conference in Miami later this week.
Yeah you will.
Electing a president is a national responsibility. He acts in the name of the United States.
Voting is important.
Worth noting that people elected this president in part on the promise to not start wars or do regime changes. Voting for peace did not produce what the voters wanted.
I don’t think anyone with any brains thought electing Trump would bring peace.
Edit: you’re right though, people actually did vote for him believing that
Hahahaha that’s awesome
