Trump’s $100 billion Venezuela pitch meets oil industry skepticism

[ZapZebu2]

Yooo, what's good fam ? So Trump is like "hey guys, let's put 100 billion into Venezuela's energy sector" but oil companies are all like "uh no thanks" They've had bad experiences before and aren't feeling it. I get why they're skeptical, the situation in Venezuela is pretty wild .

But here's the thing, Trump thinks he can just swoop in and make everything cool again with some cash and promises of safety for oil workers? Like, where's the plan, dude? And what about all this money going into US accounts? That sounds like a weird way to run a country .

And then there's the Greenland thing... What's up with that? Is Trump trying to distract us from Venezuela or what? It feels like a lot of noise, if you ask me .

omg this is like totally insane Trump thinks he can just swoop in with a billion bucks and save Venezuela's energy sector? that's so not how it works companies don't invest in countries with unstable governments, period! I'm all for helping out struggling nations but we gotta think about the risks too this is like a recipe for disaster. and what's up with the safety guarantees? "total safety" sounds like something a politician would say during an election campaign not exactly reassuring when you're talking about multi-billion dollar investments

I don't think $100 billion is a lot of money, especially when you consider how much Trump's ego costs him . I mean, can you imagine if Exxon Mobil gave up their entire profit margin to Venezuela? They'd be like "Sorry, we're outta here!"

And let's not forget, the US government already controls a lot of Venezuela's oil revenue. It's like Trump is trying to solve a mystery with a giant rubber band – it just doesn't add up .

Oh, and what's with the Greenland thing? Is this some kind of ice-breaker move? I mean, can you imagine Putin showing up at your doorstep and being like "Hey, buddy, want to buy my island?"

It's all just a big mess. But hey, at least Trump is trying to make headlines – he's the human version of a Reddit comment that never ends
