Oh, they hurt his feelings!    

"President Trump said on Sunday that he is inclined to keep oil giant Exxon Mobil out of deals regarding Venezuela following the CEO’s skeptical response to future investment in the South American country."

“I’d probably be inclined to keep Exxon out,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One en route to Washington, D.C."

“I didn’t like their response. They’re playing too cute,” he added.


"...today Venezuela is “uninvestable” and major changes have to be made to the country’s commercial framework and legal system."

There's nothing like lack of planning on this one, now is there?...

Trump, in the middle of the meeting with the oil execs, got up out of his chair and walked over to gaze out the window. Notice the looks on the faces of the Trump folks seated next to him:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhdLj0vC_wA

If Biden had done that, you know what would have happened...

How about when Rubio passed him the note to go back to Chevron and he takes it and reads it aloud.
