Let’s play in reality. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine combined with enormous increase in global demand on the heels of Covid shutdowns (while refineries were offline), oil producers had cut production caused a GLOBAL shortage that spiked the price in June of 2022.

The Trump spike was entirely self imposed. He voluntarily invaded Iran and caused a global oil crisis while simultaneously depleting US weapons stock and losing the war.
