Trump threatens Jorge Rodriguez with more blatant terrorism unless he privatizes the world's largest oil supply. If the new admin capitulates, Trump calls that a win. He gets the oil and the spectacle without losing a single american troop. The US will lose respect from its allies - again - but they never do shit about it. iTs AmErICa FiRsT. america
