Ah, there’s the grift setup I was expecting.
It slightly assuages my fears that he’s going to nuke them, though. So there’s that.
So if a ship pays the US, gets hit by Iran, the US will pay for the damages. Right?
Right?!
Did they buy the Trump insurance? Ohhh shame that, see if you want safe passage you gotta buy the Trump insurance
Yesterday I was thinking that trump might get angry that Iran is letting through some ships and try enforcing a complete blockade… this seems like the first step towards that
Yeah, he’s pissed Iran is making money off it.
So hes gonna want to charge every ship after it gets past Iran. So anyone that wants oil will have to pay both sides.
Because he’s too stupid to understand threatening to blow up a Chinese tanker unless they pay him isn’t going to result in an easy paycheck.
I really think we’re gonna lose a carrier to swarm drones before this is over.

Paraphrasing donald trump, “inshallah”
I mean…
That just means “if God wills it” which is something “Christians” say all the time too.
It’s a really weird scenario where trump blurring the lines between Islam and Christianity actually makes sense, the main difference is just the language
trump doesn’t mean it when he says it English, he doesn’t meant it when he says it in Arabic.
So obviously he’d say both just as readily.
After Iran, he’s definitely not coming for Greenland, or any other land, oil reserve or other precious assets… (British sarcasm)
so he wants to tax oil imports. praise be allah
Oh yeah, is the US going mine the strait and funnel boats down a specific corridor where there is geography that would support a toll while also bombing ships that attempt to not pay the toll?
Because, that is what the US has enabled Iran to do.
