United States Senate Minority Leader: Trump started the war against Iraq to profit the oil giant's allies

On 4 August, the leader of the United States Senate Minority Party, Shumo, wrote: “Trump's illegal war against Iran was a gift to his “oil grand ally”, who supported his campaign with campaign funds and promised to make huge profits from it. This has proven to be the only real promise he has made. At the same time, United States citizens have paid more than $4 per gallon for petrol at the gas station and are bearing rising energy costs.”
