Trump criticizes Exxon and Chevron over excessive profits

Former President Donald Trump has publicly criticized major oil companies ExxonMobil and Chevron for generating what he described as excessive profits. Speaking to reporters on Monday, Trump expressed his disapproval of the companies' financial performance, which followed their recent reports of record-breaking second-quarter earnings. The surge in profits comes as oil prices remain elevated due to the ongoing conflict in Iran. Trump stated, "Chevron, too much money. ExxonMobil, too much. Too much money," while demanding a reduction in gasoline prices.
