In Gaza, the geopolitical crisis established the conditions that are making his development deal possible,

Sure. But that's not true of all the deals he's lined up with other countries in the region. Those deals don't benefit from new regional conflict or geopolitical crises - like the U.S. bombing Iranian oil export facilities.

Again, there just isn't a credible reason why he'd want high oil prices - or that he's want to light up Iran for the purpose of getting high oil prices.

I only keep drumming on this because I get the sense that Steve is making some of his stock investments in the oil companies based on this idea that Trump is going to be making policy choices for the deliberate purpose of popping off oil prices...and I just don't see how that tracks with anything we know about him.
