It would be very funny if Zelenskyy (or really, any other NATO or allied head of state) called on orangeboi to halt strikes on Iranian oil infrastructure, saying the attacks are causing a fuel shortage

Bruh what the fuck, that's the point of it
Scapegoat for November midterms elections
That's rich. What's hurting US prices more, Trump's war on Iran or Putin's war on Ukraine?
That's what got me about it too, but Donald isn't exactly one for thinking things through.
He's one for finding scapegoats tho
Well, Putin's war had a major impact in that oil companies realized they could arbitrarily jack up prices and blame it on Russia.
Funny. I call on Russia to fuck off out of Ukraine
Seems like a great way for their precious oil infrastructure to stay safe
it's gonna be a cold fucking winter in russia this year. I wonder if it'll get bad enough for them to throw out putin
Looks like America doesn't have any cards. Have they even thanked Zelensky once?
Russia is offering nothing at all for this, by the way. Also, they could have this tomorrow by withdrawing.
I am shocked but not surprised that Trump has decided Ukraine is at fault for the skyrocketing cost of fuel. The only really "surprising" part is that he didn't try to blame Biden.
Presumably, there is a wheel or dartboard, or bingo ball dispenser full of Trump's perceived enemies somewhere and when a problem becomes too big to ignore or gaslight Americans about, they just pull it out.
It shouldn't cause a shortage, unless you're buying Russian fuel...
Get the fuck over it. Also shut up.
Slava Ukraini!!
Has Trump cleverly extracted a concession from Russia? No? Okay, let the destruction of oil infrastructure continue.
Awww poor wittle poopsie pants loosing it yet again. Yawn.
Shut the fuck up, Donny!
