      It is my belief that the Mueller probe is coming to a very imminent head. And also that RU will try to impose very substantial costs on the US when that happens. Spiking fossil fuel costs would be part of it.https://twitter.com/EnergzdEconomy/status/1010519211662331904 …

      When I say RU will impose substantial costs it's bc I think RU has been running Trump w/carrots and sticks. If he becomes unable to deliver (his July meeting w/Putin, for example), the sticks will be mobilized.

          I think even if I'm right -- that Mueller inquiry is coming to a head, one way or another -- I think people are dramatically underestimating how unpleasant it will be for everyone, not just for Trump's buddies.

          You follow @RusEmbUSA? It tells the tale in real time. When we dissed the allies at the G-7 they tweeted they’re ready to work cooperatively with the world on trade. Lavrov met w/ Kim before Trump & Kim went to Russia after. After Trump canceled military exercises Moon met Putin.

          The US is exporting oil and gas, after overturning a law dating back to the OPEC oil embargo. It could reinstate that law, if necessary.

          I predict Trump is going to deliver big. At a minimum, the $.5 trillion Exxon oil deal, via exemption or elimination of relevant sanctions. He will cite OPEC, national security, and the economy.

          I'm worried he'll be able to deliver. Our feckless legislative branch has a hard time saying 'no' to Trump.

          I really have no idea what the 'sticks' would be. I only can think of like, RU/Putin might have whole receipts of Trump's misdeeds (of all kinds) over past 1-2 decades. They could have. From financials, legal and private stuff. Entirety.
