As a retired petroleum engineer, I appreciate the detailed explanation of the science and economics of producing oil in Venezuela.

I can't imagine that Exxon or Chevron would even come near the financial black hole that Trump's deals ALWAYS are. His habit of inflating the POTENTIAL of a development rather than it's honest reality has always created a direct line to his history of bankruptcies. They know him, and even with him saying 'We'll (the U.S. government) pay for it' I'm thinking they will NOT invest in this ridonkulousness.

Woo you nailed this case. This is what happens when you fire intelligent advisors and turn to ignorant people instead.

He got his oil knowledge from Billy Bob Thornton's character in Landman.

How shocking. Trump went off half-cocked again.

Read todays Substack by The Minority Report to understand why it’s not really about the oil. Very interesting take!

Leaving the oil in the ground creates leverage, just like gold reserves. They don’t have to invest to get returns for the oligarchs of the US.

Sorry if this is unrelated to the post, but I’m hoping someone can help. Please take a moment to look at my GoFundMe campaign for my dog, who is facing serious medical bills after surgery.  Any support—whether a donation or simply sharing the link—would truly mean the world to us.  

The GOFUNDME link is under my profile.   

Thank you, Natalia  🙏
