And again, we wanted to make it conditions-based.

The Biden administration came in, number one, they started insulting Saudi and Russia.

Oil prices went up.

At the same time, what they did was they stopped domestic production of oil.

They disincentivized

A lot of oil and shale production with regulations.

They stopped pipelines.

Oil prices went up.

They stopped enforcing the sanctions against Iran, probably to get the oil prices lower to make up for what they were doing.

They ran to Iran to try to make a deal.

They started funding the Palestinians again right away.

And I even said...

If you're going to fund them, if that's your policy, I respect that.

Again, elections have consequences and you can take a different policy.

But what I would recommend is get some conditions, make them do some reforms, make them give property rights to people, make them do real economic investments for people.

But they just went right away.

So they were funding the Palestinians, not enforcing the sanctions, and then overall just projecting a lot of weakness in the region.

So one of the most embarrassing examples is what happened in the United Arab Emirates.

Again, an amazing, probably one of America's best allies over the last 20, 30 years.

They fought with us in Afghanistan.
