A promise of $100 Billion to rebuild Venezuela.
Maybe $200 Billion.
Heck, why not $500 Billion for when oil reaches $200 per barrel?
Whatever number is announced, multiply it by zero.
No…
ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, and Chevron all told Trump in their own ways that they won't be committing to spending billions of dollars in Venezuela soon.
