How? How exactly is Biden "getting revenge" on Saudi Arabia? They're already just gonna buy all their toys from China if you try to cut them off (which an America that's not an arms dealer, good luck with that) and going "well we won't protect you anymore" loses weight when you wrecked every surrounding competing country. There's no leverage.
Mysterious Saudi self sabotage/fire bombing of their own refineries?
More pipelines exploding for no reason?
The only thing that I can see is killing the Petro-Dollar
Which, I mean, he is already doing...
he will sactiooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnns any high-profile figure in opec and seize their bank account and shit.
heh put your money in the west where the politicians in charge can seize it anytime they want cause butthurt.
you can imagine what kind of long-term damage they will be doing to our third sector.
Regime change? We'll finally realize we need to export muh democracy to Saudi Arabia. Because that's worked so well in the middle east.
We all know that's not going to happen. But I assumed that is one option being hinted at.
Biden is a fucking weak loser and everyone knows it.
In 2024 when we elect Ron DeSantis, the world will start to respect us again. 2 more years of this bullshit.
No, the why is that OPEC's decision hits Biden in multiple ways.
Increases gas prices in the US a month out from an election - bad news for the party in power (and makes Biden's increased draining of the strategic petroleum reserve even more of a waste)
Helps Russia some, because they can now keep selling their oil to other countries at a higher price, thus keeping their economy going
Is a diplomatic snub to the US and the EU, both as their own energy sectors continue to have massive inflation due to their stupid domestic policies and as they keep begging people to sanction Russia.
and probably more reasons.
Basically, the Saudis told Biden "**** off, grandpa, we don't want to listen to you anymore, we'll do what we want", and now Biden is on the porch yelling at the Saudis to get off his lawn.
Essentially, the Democrats/Rino, EU and dwindling amount of allies have been trying to cash cheques based on a reputation they haven't earned. It's emperor has no clothes and everyone is sick of the naked old man.
