CNN<\/strong><\/em> has a summary report<\/a> that I thought iconic of the clumsy ways of President Trump:<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0Oil plans:\u00a0<\/strong>President Donald Trump\u00a0said he will personally decide<\/a>\u00a0which US companies can enter Venezuela and rebuild its oil industry. Oil executives largely\u00a0declined to commit<\/a>\u00a0to such a deal during a White House meeting today, with ExxonMobil\u2019s CEO warning\u00a0the country is \u201cuninvestible\u201d<\/a>\u00a0in its current state.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/a>Does uninvestible<\/em> mean the technical challenges render the project of stealing Venezuela’s oil too expensive given the current market price of oil? That’s congruent with the Epstein “we need a distraction!” Files hypothesis, and with Trump’s tendency to do things with little forethought.<\/p>\n

Or does it mean the Venezuelan’s attitude makes the project too dangerous? Again, a forethought problem, but correctable if enough of them are bribed\/moved\/or even killed.<\/p>\n

If you think, well, he wouldn’t do that last one<\/em>, you’re still not taking this seriously enough. Go back and study this pathological narcissist and his immense, yet frail, personality. Think about this hypothesized drive to acquire wealth so that, when he dies, he can buy himself a favored position in heaven<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It ain’t morality that’ll stop him.<\/p>\n

And maybe not his family, either. They’ve really dropped out of sight, haven’t they?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
