Can't say I am sure but a few things to consider, the military industrial complex loves wars for starters. PLus we have a puppet govt in Ukraine and a lot of aid money will likely get siphoned off and laundered, Zelenskyy's number one man already stole 5 billion from a bank he ran, they had to use taxpayer money to stabilize that bank afterwards. If Putin is not playing ball, NATO might be happy to cause problems for him by drawing him into a war. If Putin is or is not playing ball, the situation serves as distraction and excuse to usher in new changes and normalizations like govts freezing more bank accounts of private individuals and changing banking systems. Also Ukraine had a big prob for years now of rogue militias on their Eastern border that refused to take orders from the Ukrainian govt or Zelenskyy, the Russians may also be solving that problem for them. There are a lot of factors.. (and we have always been at war with East Asia! )
Even if we pump 100 percent of our own oil, our oil companies are private and always sell to the highest bidder. We will always be paying the global rates as long as oil production is private enterprise. They are not going to offer special cheap domestic rates if they don't gotta. The only countries that have cheap domestic rates are countries whose govts have more control over oil reserves in their country and can set their own prices to lower them for their own citizens.
Oil prices were down globally at the time, it had nothing to do with Trump. You'd need to show me where private oil companies have EVER sold gas domestically at a lower rate in the USA if you want to argue it was anything else and you can't. DOn't let your love for Trump get in the way of accepting facts that you might wish were not true.
America in 2023 = Russia in 1917.
This is the goal.
