Link: Trump draining SPR faster than Biden

Thread Level: 3

Your whataboutism aside, draining the SPR is wrong absent a declared war. Just my opinion.

I'm curious if you agree, or if you think only Biden was justified to do it?

It was a segue, not a whatabout.

Would you agree that Trump used the SPR to alleviate a situation that him and BB Netanyahu caused themself? I don't recall Biden making a decision that had a direct cause/effect to oil and gas prices, do you?

"It was a segue." I'll have to remember that. Chris94's silence indicates he approves.

"Trump used the SPR to alleviate a situation that him and BB Netanyahu caused themself?" No. I suppose if any defense can be made of it, he used the SPR to alleviate a situation that Iran and Obama caused. But, I have no desire to defend the action. It is wrong for Trump to tap the SPR like the Democrats did, like to address inflation they helped create.

Sounds like you think Democrats tapping the SPR is ok, so you like it when Dems do it, but don't like it when Trump does. Figures.

Perfect example to explain the difference between segue and whatabout, but sure blame Obama for

the current war situation we're in. To answer the question directly I think Biden did the absolutely necessary thing in using the SPR. Once again, we Americans were getting gouged at the pump because the world was in a crisis. That's what leaders do, figure out ways to help real problems. There is no rule that says the SPR can't be used to stabilize global markets. You just refuse to admit Trump is having to do it to for starting a war against Iran.
