Not that he gives a rat’s ass about the working class. I mean the “little people.”
He got what he wanted from the Proles, their votes. From that moment on, the Proles became expendable.
Why would Trump want Venezuelan heavy sour produced? He could be butt hurt because Canada would not bow down to him. The scheme may be to replace Canadian heavy, sour, with Venezuelan. That would hurt Canada, because they don't have means to move that much crude to the coast, so it could be exported. Is Trump that petty and vindictive? Yes!
We know how USian "JCs" think. If the government wants something, they can sit on their hands until the government pays them to do what the government wants. Trump made a big deal in the presser about how the investment could come out of the oil company's pockets, again promoting the narrative this won't cost USian taxpayers anything. I bet, if his objective really is to produce Venezuelan crude, he will guarantee every nickle big oil invests, and guarantee their profits, so he can hurt Canada.
