Cable Forum - President Trump 2.0

Traders bet hundreds of millions of dollars on oil contracts just minutes before US President Donald Trump announced on Monday that the US would postpone strikes against Iranian energy infrastructure.

Gosh, who expected that? :rolleyes: :erm:

Trump's right saying go get your own oil. May be Edward Miliband can go find some in a green house.

Trouble with UK and most of Europe, they won't look after themselves, at least France went its own way. Not a fan of trump but he is an improvement on biden , which is not saying a lot. Still all the labour supporters must be happy with the cringeing way the UK government is working . Even if they are throwing Charlie to the lions . Really creeping at it's best.

The USA didn’t do these things out of charity, they did them out of enlightened self-interest.
