Oil extraction is much more capital intensive than solar farming.
The oil never pays for the occupation
Trump on the US running Venezuela: It will not cost us anything because the money coming out of the ground is substantial. We’re going to take back the oil.

Either the US has a constitution, or it does not.
The Maduro regime posed no threat to the people of the United States. The Trump regime is illegally going to war without authorization.
It’s a distraction from his corruption and his pedophilia scandal.

Sheinbaum has bent over backwards to acquiesce to the Trump admin and this is what she gets.
Trump on Sheinbaum: "The cartels are running Mexico. She's not running Mexico. We could be politically correct & nice and say, 'Oh, yes, she is.' No no. And I've asked her number times, 'Would you like us to take out the cartels?' ... something is gonna have to be done with Mexico."

I’m old enough to remember when they at least tried not to say the quiet part out loud
FOX & FRIENDS: What do you see as the future of Venezuela's oil industry?
TRUMP: Well I see that we're gonna be very strongly involved in it. That's all. What can I say. We have the greatest oil companies in the world.
