Trump blasts oil majors as profits surge, urging a public payback
TL;DR Summary
Trump accused oil majors of profiteering after windfall profits from the Iran conflict, citing ExxonMobil’s jump in quarterly earnings, Chevron’s record results, and large profits at Aramco, BP, and Shell. With oil prices topping $100 a barrel and US pump prices around $4.55, the remarks come as the GOP faces midterm headwinds and the Strategic Petroleum Reserve sits near multi-decade lows.
