In the midst of a pandemic, President Donald Trump pulled off an energy coup: He was able to convince the second and third largest crude oil producing countries to set their bickering aside and voluntarily cut production, at least for a couple of months. In so doing Trump may have saved global financial markets, the U.S. energy industry — and the U.S. economy.

Even the New York Times, no a friend of Trump or fossil fuels, conceded he “prodded” the oil nations to “reach a deal.”
