Well, Biden did blow up a pipe line that supplied Russian gas to Europe. He also did nothing to improve the horrible situation in Venezuela that Trump started. He actually just doubled down on it. Not on the level of what Trump has done. But every US president is consistently working to ensure US oligarchs have control of the oil supply. And that doesn't always mean literally stealing oil. It's more about control. Sometimes that brings domestic gas prices down. Sometimes it makes them go up. Sometimes that means blowing up pipelines. Sometimes that means kidnapping a countries elected leader. The president WANTS domestic gas prices to be low. It helps their approval ratings and party elections. But, the president is subject to the wishes of the oil and war oligarchs. And they are fucking thirsty right now. Edit: I've broken through with a positive upvote (for now) making a comment about Democrats and Bidens failures to combat Trump. I have faith in you Lemmy. Edit2: Had to brag. Reminded people to downvote.
