Donald Trump erupted at the United Kingdom Tuesday morning over its refusal to join the United States in its war against Iran, issuing the European nation a notice that the United States would no longer be offering it “help.”

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

    Supreme leader trump hs declared that to protect capitalism domestic oil producers are restricted from selling on the global market.

    Patriots must sell oil only to the homeland and forego the global markets.

    CPAC has burst into chants of USA USA and free market analysts on Fox News are calling this an obvious win.

    Comrades, trump has said if any privately owned oil fields produce oil for export he may have to seize the means of production. Truly a new golden age is upon us.

      If the USA isn’t going to participate in the global oil market then there’s no reason for the global oil market to use US currency.
