Donald Trump Warns Libyan Rebels Will Be ‘Richer’ Than Americans If We Don’t Steal Their Oil
Edited on Mon Aug-22-11 10:15 AM by my2sense
Now that Libya’s NATO-backed rebels have taken the capital of Tripoli, political gadfly Donald Trump wants the insurgents to repay the West for its help by turning over the country’s oil. “You know, in the old days, when you won a war, to the victor go the spoils,” Trump said, “why don’t we take the oil?” “All those rebels are going to be richer than the people of this country because they’re going to take all the oil!” Trump warned.

2. The mask is slipping.
It's easier to get rich by theft than through hard work. Ask The Donald.

5. Well the oil is on their land.
Why does Donald think the oil doesn't belong to them? It certainly doesn't belong to the Donald or America. Hell, Americans don't even get back a smidgen of taxes back for their own oil.

6. The Chinese are signing contracts as fast as they can in Libya.
I suppose Trump wants to enrage the Chinese over something we don't own.

For the most part, we never got much Libyan oil anyway, most went to Europe.

Trump is an ignorant douchebag who won the Lucky Sperm Lottery in life.

7. "because they’re going to take all the oil"
The nerve of those Libyans thinking that oil that is found on Libyan lands is owned by the Libyans.


Gee, Donald why don't you just go over there and take it on your own?

Come on big fucking MOUTH, put up for once, show the world you are more than a "you're fired" talking-point and have more business sense than going bankrupt every other year.

Elitist piece of crap. STFU.

be considered Presidential material by anyone in these DIVIDED states is frightening.
