You've made yourself out to be the expert on the homosexual community, so ask yourself!
As far as the rest of us go, I couldn't give two **** what someone in India or Mexico has available to buy.  Why a dope like YOU would is beyond me!

I'm answering YOU, retard. You're the one harping on it, incorrectly insisting that India is no longer buying Russian oil when in fact it has doubled down.

And the whole point of Trump's increasing of the tariffs on India IS TO HURT THEIR ECONOMY!  They will never sit still for it - they will find other trading partners. They are already doing so. How could you possibly be so dumb that you don't understand that? 

AI OverviewNo, the premise that India is buying less oil from Russia due to Trump's tariffs is incorrect. While former President Donald Trump, who returned to office in January 2025, has imposed tariffs on India over its Russian oil purchases, India has continued buying Russian oil based on market economics and national energy needs. 
India's oil purchases from Russia

[*]Increased volume: After Western nations began shunning Russian energy following the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, India dramatically increased its purchases of discounted Russian crude. Before 2022, Russia made up less than 1% of India's oil imports. By 2025, that share grew to more than a third of its total intake, making Russia India's top oil supplier.
[*]Reliance on Russian oil: Indian officials have stated that halting imports would disrupt its supply chain, cause domestic fuel prices to soar, and undermine the country's energy security.[/list]

AI says you're stewpid, stewpid.

When their economy crashes as a result of Trump's tariffs, they will relent and agree to stop buying Russian oil, which will help bring their war to an end.

Their economy is DEFINITELY going to feel some serious pain from Trump's tariffs. They count on US markets for 20% of their foreign trade. They will likely lose about half of that, due to the increased prices of goods from India when AMERICAN CONSUMERS have to pay more for their goods.

Trump is punishing AMERICAN CONSUMERS to hurt India - not to bring back jobs, no no no - but to hurt India. And it isn't about buying Russian oil. That oil is GOING TO BE BOUGHT. The world runs on it - only an idiot with no experience in business could fail to grasp that. This is to punish India for being a member of BRICS.

I've already proven here that my career has included five distinct businesses that I've owned or been a partner of over the last 50 years and THAT stopped your stupid lies cold for the last couple of years.

Sorry, but you cannot even tell a hybrid from an EV. You don't even understand how tariffs work. You're an idiot. Idiots do not run businesses.
