What he's really saying is that they're not paying him a big enough cut.

Making too much money that he's not getting enough of a cut of

Fixed

apart from distracting, it's just a call to give him a bigger cut or ...... no more war for you my oil buddies!

Subtext: “…and they’re not giving enough of it to ME!!”

Might he be concerned about the upcoming midterm elections - perhaps more so than the recent huge cost of living challenges facing US families?

Also:

from the global energy market disruption caused by his war on Iran.

Very true.

He's getting blamed for high gas prices and he's passing the blame as usual.

"President has no idea how commodity pricing works"

He's trying to blame oil companies for his stupid war.

This fucking asshole made two billion in a year. And he's a brainless baboon. He has a lot of nerve talking about anyone else making "too much money".

Sounds like a communist policy of taking over business in order to facilitate more Pump and Dump Rump acts of state terrorism.

Let them fight.

U.S. Government Subsidies to Oil Companies in 2026

In 2026, the U.S. federal government is estimated to provide $35 billion annually in subsidies to the fossil fuel industry, which includes oil companies.

Breakdown of Subsidies

The subsidies can take various forms, including:

• Direct Financial Subsidies: Tax breaks and direct payments to oil companies.
• Land Acquisition: Reduced royalties and access to public lands for drilling.
• Permitting: Streamlined processes for obtaining permits.
• Government Services: Infrastructure support, such as road maintenance.

Maybe it's time to stop the subsdies.

saying they should ‘give some of that back to the public

Then make them. I mean you're basically fucking omnipotent. You absolutely have the power to make them do that. So if you really believe that, make them. But you don't really believe that, this is simply a whataboutism to distract from the damage you personally are causing the economy.

Yeah! only corrupt presidents are allowed to make money from war!

/S

What ever happened to his "Freedom Fuel Network"?

Probably unrelated... /s

So.. you’re saying they should be taxed more?

Gas should be $1/gal for the next 5 years.
