And as stated they all hate the idea. Many pointed out with China and Russia already doing it, China temporarily paused their ban, if the US did it too the global supply would "tighten" which would do the opposite it would constrain supply and drive prices higher. It wouldn't matter if we were in fantasy land where we were using just our own diesel the global supply would shrink prices would skyrocket and the global economy would get crushed which would harm us too.
he's a moron. He's completely trapped Iran says 2 days ago they would be willing to come to a deal if the US gives on a few things and Trump immediately comes out and says we will have a deal after the election. So of course any chance of a deal before the election was put back on hold and then to make it worse, he talks annihlation yesterday.
So Iran will go back to waiting out the elections hoping Dems take control and can neuter Trump.
