Donald Trump has said he might block ExxonMobil from investing in Venezuela after the oil company’s chief executive called the country “uninvestable” during a White House meeting last week.
Darren Woods told the US president that Venezuela would need to change its laws before it could be an attractive investment opportunity, during the high-profile meeting on Friday with at least 17 other oil executives.
Woods’ sceptical remarks quickly emerged as the dominant headline, undercutting the White House’s hopes of building momentum from its engagement with the world’s most prominent oil executives.
"I didn’t like Exxon’s response,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One on his way back to Washington on Sunday. “I’ll probably be inclined to keep Exxon out. I didn’t like their response. They’re playing too cute.”
Exxon did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Oh look, it’s one of the actual reasons Harris didn’t win!
No, not her support of Israel. A moronic voter who decided genocide and a ruined economy under Trump is preferable a genocide and mild progress under Harris.
That is, of course, assuming you’re actually a citizen. Foreign misinformation campaigns were a huge part of last few elections.
Keep telling yourself that. Moral abstainers make up an unbelievably small percentage of Dem voters. Event if everyone who voted third party or abstained because of genocide support had actually voted for Kamala, she still would have lost.
No, I blame all of you who were content to let the Dems force a status quo candidate on us while quashing progressive movements. If y’all actually had some balls and held your politicians to account, maybe you could have shifted your candidate’s position on genocide or made space for an actual progressive.
Instead, you were all focused on your fears of Daddy coming home and beating everyone with his belt.
So now we get the worst of both worlds. Trump is thrashing American, and there is no effective opposition, because you all voted for no effective opposition.
I said ONE OF the reasons, not THE reason. A MAJOR reasons was the social media campaigns, many of which focused on Harris supporting Israel.
You blame me for something I had no part in. I supported Sanders in the 2016 primary and we didn’t even GET a primary last year. I also didn’t vote for traitorous senator who won in my state.
But it’s MY fault Trump won, huh? Moreso than the person who fell for the disinformation campaigns and got hung up on an atrocity both assholes support?
yup, anyone not stuck in a bubble and being honest with themselves knows exactly when/why kamala lost.
even with being forced on america she still could have won…but she flip-flopped on universal healthcare immediately
as soon as that happens 99% of voters go “oh…yup, just another lying career politician who doesn’t really believe in anything, they’ll just do whatever their
donorsbribes tell em to”republicans are atleast honest in their greed, you can predict with 100% certainty what they’re going to do. just plan for maximum pain/cruelty and you can check out of politics completely for the next 4 years. dems though? dems win and you got to actually pay attention, they’re much better liers. voting for the bad lier is just good business
