Arguably the American economic miracle was built on a foundation of cheap energy and low government regulation. Trump seems to be trying to get us back to both.
It could also be a statement of how highly the fortunes of Saudi Arabia are regarded. Since Exxon's joy and happiness depends on the House of Saud, it is unlikely that we will be putting up much resistance when the next Saudi-orchestrated attack on the USA comes.
is this true?

Wiat a minute. YESTERDAY you were claiming Tilelrson was owned by Russia. Today it is Saudi Arabia.
Are you really this intellectually incompetent?
Actually pull you head out of your stuck in the 1970s butt for once and stop with the insanely ignorant obnoxious drivel you post. Your commentary is completely divorced from a hint of a notion of a clue of a thought of a fact.
Did I? Where was this?
Saudi Arabia attacked America in 2001. You don't remember September 11?
Perhaps I did not make it clear. YOU ARE NOT a “great thinker” as you fantasy. You a dogmatic clown chanting ignorant based slogans. You have utterly no clue at all what you are talking about.
Okay Johnnie. Anything you say.
The U.S. Is Exporting Its Oil Everywhere
You have utterly NO clue at all what you are talking about here.
Lol. You're going to celebrate?
So where was this, Johnnie?
since I have not penetrated the fog of idiocy you wrap yourself in, let me be blunt in the hope rational thought finally penetrates.
You are a clueless moron.
So where was this, Johnnie... or... could it be that you are MAKING IT UP?
