OPEC+ Output Increase Largely Symbolic Amid Global Tensions

• OPEC+ considers raising oil output amidst significant global supply disruptions.
• The U.S.-Israeli war with Iran has effectively shut down the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil route.
• Key OPEC+ members face challenges in boosting production due to conflict and infrastructure damage.
• Oil prices have surged, and further disruptions could lead to all-time high prices.

The Great OPEC+ Charade

Folks, let me tell you, this OPEC+ meeting is something else. They're talking about increasing oil production, can you believe it? It's like they're saying, "We're going to make a deal, the best deal, maybe ever" when half the oil fields are, frankly, a mess. It's like Sleepy Joe trying to negotiate – all talk, no action. They wanna boost output, but the Strait of Hormuz is essentially closed. It's a disaster, a total disaster. I always said, we need energy independence, and we were getting there, the best numbers, everyone agreed. Now, look at this. Sad.

Hormuz: A Total Mess

This Strait of Hormuz, it's a disaster, a real mess. Nobody knows how to handle it. It's been shut down because of what I call, very nasty situation and it is impacting countries such as Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait and Iraq. They were supposed to pump more oil, big deal. But they can’t. The fake news won't tell you this, but these are the countries that were supposed to raise production before everything went haywire. Now, they're saying it will take months to get back to normal. Months. If I were still President, I'd have that Strait opened so fast, it would make your head spin. And speaking of messes, you should read about Grand Jury Rejects Seditious Conspiracy Charges Against Democratic Senators. Another total sham.

Russia's Troubles and Western Interference

Russia, they have their own problems. Sanctions, you know, the Democrats love their sanctions, even though they never work. And they got some damage from that situation in Ukraine. They can’t pump more oil either. Everybody is in trouble and the whole world suffers. I always said, "Peace through strength". But no, the Democrats always have to meddle. It's like they enjoy chaos, frankly.

Oil Prices Skyrocketing: A Four-Year High

The prices, they're going through the roof, a four-year high, folks. $120 a barrel. Can you imagine? And they say it could go even higher, maybe $150. I built the greatest economy in history, the best numbers, and now look what’s happening. It's a disgrace. They’re destroying everything. I would have these prices down so fast. Believe me.

A Meeting of Empty Promises

This meeting on Sunday, it's just a show. They'll talk about quotas, about raising output, but it won’t matter one bit. The Strait is closed. It’s like me promising to build the wall – oh wait, I did that. But this OPEC+ promise, it's empty. Just academic, as somebody said. That's a very smart word, academic. I like that.

Energy Independence: The Only Solution

The bottom line is this: we need energy independence and need it now. We had it, almost. We were drilling, we were producing, we were winning. But now, it's a disaster. We must unleash American energy, the best energy, and stop relying on these countries and these crazy situations. We can’t let them control us. It’s time to make America great again and energy independent. It's so simple. Very simple.
