    1. Technically America doesnt need opec, America has the ability to produce and be independent and not reliant on them or anyone else, but it goes against the green agenda and therefor, the green ideology has expectations that are not realistic and thus America is no longer a major producer! The laws they create are not beneficial to the country and therefor does not make sense, so, how about exclude production from the green agenda laws and not be dependant on others and also bring our prices down! The green agenda should be focused on the energy grid that is powered by multiple products from solar to windmill and storage of the energy, basically multiple layers of energy formats, bringing it to people over time as this takes time to do it right!! The infrastructure is not there, unless you Nationalize energy and magnify the wireless charging idea on a grand scale, basically a form of tesla tech, and charge the basic citizen a flat rate fee of one dollar a month which would amount to 258 million or more a month, as that is how many adults America has, and that is more than enough to do some cool things!

    2. Right… Joe Biden is weak!! Leave Trump alone… CNN and MSNBC are so pathetic.. The majority of Americans know already… We will show you all in November!!!👍

    3. Trump obviously has a deal with Saudi Arabia, trying to make Americans pay for not voting for him. Everyone blaming Biden that's a laugh, it's not Biden definitely Trump is behind this. Exactly why we need to decrease greatly our dependancy on oil period, people wanting to criticize electric vehicles are just taking money from these oil companies

    4. SPR is reserve not supply. Solve the imbalance in supply and demand (economic 101). However, it is going to take some time as capex in oil in the past few years was so little. Oil is not produced overnight. It takes time, needs investment and supporting policy.

    5. Is it our fault or OPECs fault? Does it even make any sense to be ANGRY they are not producing more when we BLOCKED keystone and halted our production!

    6. the Saudi's want America 2 b a dictatorship – Trump wants to b that man & his 1st trip overseas being to Saudi Arabia followed by the sale of our largest oil refinery to the Saudi's followed by the 3.5B cash injection that Kushner & Mnuchin got from the Saudi's it doesn't take a rocket scientist 2 c that America 1st = the death of democratic process & the rise of a theocratic fascism – unless the American people can become educated b4 the midterm we may in fact lose the America we had & we won't get it back for decades or ever

    7. Time to cut military training and assistance, spare parts, munitions, and other aid to Saudi Arabia and OPEC nations. When Iran comes knocking on the gulf states, we should say it isn't for us to interfere in a religious war. The Saudis are only seeking whatever they can get out of us as Americans. Good for the goose, good for the gander. Right? Two can play at this gamer. Right? The Saudi's will go to Russia or China? Let them. The Chinese and the Russians treat Muslims so well in their countries, don't they? Hypocrites, liars, and fair-weather friends. I do not trust the Saudis now nor will I in the future.

    8. Lying MSDNC, the only thing Biden took a tougher line on was eating ice cream that proctologist Jill had to hand feed him. I hear that Joe asked the Saudis to increase the production of oil but they decided to decrease the production. Does this mean that they are intimidated by Joe? You know, the one that nobody F's with. Especially the invisible man he keeps trying to shake hands with and his handlers who try to pull him away from reporters before he makes a fool of himself. Can't wait until his impeachment and crackhead Hunter's investigation after the midterms. The only news network that ranks lower than msdnc is c.n.n. according to Forbes. Americans are getting tired of fake news, that thankfully Trump told everybody about.

    9. Biden lowers production and makes it harder to drill oil in the USA…Democrats say thats a good thing…..Other countries do the same and democrats say thats a bad thing…..So whats it going to be democrats…………..

    10. Economy rolling along really really well he said????? Maybe for the rich it may be….The poor cant afford gas, food, medicine, rent, and you think its rolling along really good…OMG….Go to the grocery store and cuss every time when you see the prices keep going up and up buddy…………….
