@benroyce@mastodon.social It was a pointless move on Trump's part anyway. 1) The numbers are tiny. 300,000 metric tons is just 14 hours of US consumption. 2) It takes a minimum of 30 days with no delays for a tanker of diesel to get from Russia to the US. So not until after the midterms. And it would require several tankers for that amount. So it's not going to affect diesel prices in time, if it does at all.

@benroyce@mastodon.social I can only see half the comments here (all yours), and this is why we're preparing for the next regime in the US to be Republican. The tighty righties all know that, no matter what, they have to vote the same way, and have to vote each and every time the opportunity presents itself. The left it's constitutionally incapable of doing anything like that.
