Donald Trump is having another normal one and decided to dump all of his drinking water on the ground while addressing a crowd.
Comparing the small glass filled with water to the amount of fuel that could be saved using greener methods.
Holding up the glass, Trump said: ‘We have more fuel than any country in the world. Now if you add Venezuela we’ll have 58% of the fuel in the world.
‘In order to save a glass of fuel like this, it’s ridiculous.’
He then poured the drink onto the ground as the audience cheered.
The US President was visiting a manufacturing facility in Denton when he spilled the water everywhere.
Americans and Europeans have been facing rising diesel and petrol costs as the war with Iran disrupts the wholesale transportation of oil.
And as the November midterm elections creep nearer, Trump is looking to appeal to voters desperate to bring their cost-of-living down.
Trump has gone so far as to threaten a restriction on gas exports, which would flood the US with more diesel and bring the prices down for drivers.
This is a worry for Europe, including the UK, which imports a significant amount of fuel from the US as Russia and the Middle East reduce and divert their own exports.
But Trump’s administration wants European countries to release their own reserves to stop US farmers and truckers from ‘carrying the burden’ as prices rise, US Treasury Scott Bessent wrote on social media.
Prices in the UK are also rising, and a restriction on US fuel which amounts to 31% of all imports, would send it soaring.
Diesel prices in station forecourts hit record highs this week at just under 200p per litre, according to the RAC.
