In addition to the strikes on Iran being a convenient bandage to help heal Trump's wounded ego after his parade flop, if oil prices go up due to Iranian retaliation and market jitters then this is a gift on a silver platter to Trump's pal Putin as higher oil prices help fund the Russian war machine in Ukraine

Trump needs higher oil prices anyways lol that was always the end goal

Look up how many wells have been drilled but not capped, no new well would ever drill under 75-85 dollars a barrel minimum, without high oil prices trump can't drill national parks
