China gets 45% of their oil through the Gulf. They're going to be burning up phone lines to Tehran telling them to make a deal.You think our arch rival (which even you acknowledge) will actually bail us out of a major clusterfuck of our own making?
Maybe you’ve never heard of the following statement, but China certainly has:
“Never interrupt your enemy when they’re making a mistake.”China is extremely happy to see the United States hanging in the wind.
It might hurt China, but it will hurt the United States much more.
China also has a huge reserve of oil and they, unlike the U.S., has invested heavily in renewable energy.
And the U.S.? We’re in a hole and we keep digging. Maybe Trump thinks if he digs deep enough, he’ll strike oil.
As a wise man once said, “Patience, grasshopper.”. The Chinese have time to spare, we don’t.
