Trump’s Middle East Energy Victories Are Also Huge Wins For Texas

Despite all of the criticism from the left over the war with Iran, national security expert Victoria Coates says we need to remember the victories that President Trump has already had.

"That means the United States isn't a supplicant anymore, we're not going to the gulf asking for more production. We have our own production" Coates said.

Not only has President Trump turned things around in the Middle East for the U.S., but is also leading to wins here in Texas.

"There are also going to be benefits, particularly for your state (Texas), for your audience, the role that the United States is going to play as a energy super-power going forward" Coates told KTRH, adding that here in Texas, "Countries like Saudi Arabia buying natural gas from Texas, we're seeing Qatar open Golden Pass in Texas, we're seeing UAE pull out of OPEC because they want to partner with Texas. All of this has happened over the last two months."

She also notes that the U.S. becoming a energy super-power, is something that China cannot do.
