Lol. What crap. The Saudis didn't declare war on US shale. They were bringing Russia to heel.I'm sympathetic to the argument that the Left is fucking up our energy policy, but this is simply false.
The Saudis are and have been the marginal supplier of oil in the world. That's what happened in 2014 when Saudi declared war on American shale and opened up the taps, driving oil to $28 a bbl, and in 2020 when MBS got into a temperamental scrap with Putin and drove front month WTI to -$40/bbl. Yes, that's negative $40.
The Orange Cult believes anything their precious snowflake media bubble tells them about their messiah.
