      Not exactly what they hope to accomplish with this. “Can you guys just drill more here?”

      > “We’ve got a problem, we know we have a problem and we’re doing everything we can to address it,” Vance said at an event in Auburn Hills, Michigan. “We’ve got a rough road ahead of us for the next few weeks, but it’s temporary,” the vice president said.

      A problem THEY created. Did they seriously think this *wasn’t* going to happen? Is telling people ‘it’s temporary’ supposed to forgive them? How long is ‘temporary’?

      Just tell everyone to work from home. There you go. I found 50% of your supply.

      If they are so concerned about oil prices, they could just, you know, quit fighting this pointless war that has disrupted them.

    4. I mean Trump can just claim victory in Iran, stand down, and oil prices would drop instantaneously.

      That seems like the fastest way to get it done.
