Palin keeping door open to joining Trump administration

14. In other words...

"I need a job and Wendy's won't hire me, so I'm going to work for Trump."

The sad thing is, she wouldn't be the most disastrous addition to Trump's crew. It's going to take a whole lot to beat out RFK Jr and Musk for that title. She also wouldn't be benign...it's not like she understands how the petroleum industry really works.

Helpful hint: A refinery can't refine any oil presented to it. Because there are many kinds of crude oil with different boiling points and composition, you have to design your systems to work with a specific kind of oil. This is copied directly from the American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers' website:

Re-tooling refineries to process solely U.S. crude oil (light crude) would cost billions — a risky investment that would take decades to permit, construct and eventually pay off. We lack the infrastructure (like pipelines) needed to cost effectively supply U.S crude oil and refined products to every region. Even if the economics of re-tooling our facilities worked, it can take close to a decade to permit and build pipelines in the United States.

Instead, the way the system is designed is to export US crude oil to nations that have the right refineries for it, and to import crudes that our refineries can process. And just so you know, more crude oil goes out of the US than comes into it.
