Did everyone notice yesterday that the president admitted the entire "Russian diesel deal" thing is complete bullshit, none of the fuel is actually coming to the U.S. and obviously never was, and with a minimum of 40% of Russian refining capacity offline it probably does not exist at all.
Doocy: "There are some Republicans in the Senate who are upset about this diesel deal."
Trump: "That's a diesel deal that's going to be released into the world…They're not releasing that to us, they're releasing that to the entire world."
