    I think it might be real unfortunately. https://kyivindependent.com/trump-says-russia-agreed-to-supply-millions-of-tons-of-diesel-to-us-global-markets/

    Stealing a response from u/Ok_Aspect2804

    300,000 tons is roughly 2.2 million barrels — about half a day of total U.S. distillate use.

    Strait is still closed and inflation/gas prices continue to rise.

    Thank you Donald Trump, so much winning!

    So he’s funding Russia, and barely offsetting the price of fuel for starting a war with Iran, and ignoring all the other issues he’s caused.

      Trump says a lot of bullshit, and unfortunately for him the Russian sanctions are an actual act of Congress his dumbass can’t get around by declaration, and Congress recessed early by Republican decree so it can’t even strike the sanctions before the midterms LMAO.
