Oh yes, let's please get Trump back in office so we can go back to the days of half a million layoffs in the industry. Mr. "Keep the discussion about layoffs" will be happy since there will plenty of pertinent topics.

Lol, when a post hits a nerve the apologists default to either grammar police or ‘this isn’t about layoffs… wahhhh’

I mean you could try to argue that ‘.. bribes are good..?’, but that’s harder to defend, huh? Smh

I heard that MW was doing a circle J about the Shareholders while there thinking about how much he could return to them!

Oil companies love deals, especially morally questionable ones with huge upside. This is why they are quick to become all dictators' favorite money machine. Why not do it right in the USA?

You got that right. Interesting new way to campaign when you have nothing but political fails and are trying to divert attention from yourself. I'll just tie up my opponent in court with bogus charges. "hey look over here!"

Hard to swing many deals while you’re in court everyday as a criminal defendant. A real role model for our children, someone they can look up to.

I'm not sure, but I'm willing to bet that he's a better negotiator and swings a much better deal than the lame and pathetic "Big Guy" - rotflmao!

A billion to roll back environmental regulations seems cheap, what does Trump charge the Russians for our war plans and military secrets.?

Chevron already gives tens if not hundreds of millions to the Republican Party. Not sure how much more would be required to get the industry total to a billion. Prolly not a lot.

That is solicitation of a bribe.

I’m sure this case will be rapidly prosecuted by the southern district of Florida only to end up back in the canon kangaroo court.

Apparently MW took some hi-pots along to show them the high life at Mar-A-Lago, where he was gushing at the whole scene and giggling like a school girl when DT shook his hand and slapped him on the back.

Always amazing to observe how delusional the orange one is. Can't wait to see how a President operates from a prison cell.

"Donald Trump dangled a brazen “deal” in front of some of the top US oil bosses last month, proposing that they give him $1bn for his White House re-election campaign and vowing that once back in office he would instantly tear up Joe Biden’s environmental regulations and prevent any new ones, according to a bombshell new report.

According to the Washington Post, the former US president made his jaw-dropping pitch, which the paper described as “remarkably blunt and transactional”, at a dinner at his Mar-a-Lago home and club.

In front of more than 20 executives, including from Chevron, Exxon and Occidental Petroleum, he promised to increase oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, remove hurdles to drilling in the Alaskan Arctic, and reverse new rules designed to cut car pollution. He would also overturn the Biden administration’s decision in January to pause new natural gas export permits which have been denounced as “climate bo--s”.

No bonuses this year as MW has to bribe the d0t@rd. And that money sure isn't coming out of HIS bonus.

It could be a diversity effort - outreach to a criminal insurrectionist.
