President Donald Trump recently expressed dissatisfaction with oil companies, stating they are making too much money. This comes as the conflict with Iran has driven up global oil prices, resulting in higher costs for American consumers. The increased prices have been beneficial for oil exporters, but may pose a challenge for Trump ahead of the upcoming midterm elections.
