I stated two facts. One, the war in Iraq pushed oil prices to all-time record highs. Two, sanction on Iran, which were lifted by President Obama allowed Iran to sell oil again which increased supply and lowered gas and oil prices. Republicans use government (wars and sanctions) to destroy capitalism and replace it with crony capitalism. But they're far eviler than that. Record oil prices helped Putin cement power. Obama lowering those prices, put Russia into years of recession, turned Russia against the US and against Democrats which led to them trying to put their man in the White House by colluding with the gop to destroy free elections.
