Trump said U.S. control of Iranian oil could follow the Venezuela model as gasoline prices and Middle East tensions remain elevated.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump suggested at the Amgen Irish Open in Doonbeg, Ireland, that the United States could remain in Iran to "keep the oil," drawing a parallel with a Venezuela deal.
- The administration's August agreement with Venezuela serves as a model, with Trump claiming U.S. revenue from the deal has "paid for the war many times."

- Following an attack on a Saudi pipeline, turmoil in the Middle East roiled oil markets, with traders anticipating prices could rise again on Monday.
- Trump expects the Iran war to end this year, possibly after midterm elections in November, predicting gasoline prices would "drop like a rock" once the conflict concludes.
