re: Trump willing to end war without opening Hormuz Strait - WSJ

As expected, the MAGA bros have put their leotards on and started doing flips. The WSJ isn't credible because "muh anonymous sources," but if it's true, it's a good thing because this has been Trump's strategy all along!
I think Obtuse said it well: removing the regime is a good thing but the method has been less than ideal. Kicking an ant pile then telling everyone else to get the Strait opened if they care so much would be bad business. We've painted ourselves into a corner where we insist that we're in control and all of the IRGC is at the bottom of the sea, yet somehow they're finessing ships for a bounty to cross safely.

The admin. could be using MSM in this case to see how markets would respond.
But, I do think there are leaks from objectors at times:
(1) I know you'll say fake news, but there were like three reports that Caine was advising against this.
(2) We have seen multiple stories now that JD is the opposition in these matters. It's entirely possible that is meant to give him political cover as the anti-war guy.

Why would you lie when it can be so easily disproven?

It is absolutely insane that people think this is a good idea.
Clearly they have an emotional desire to hurt the EU for some reason, which hasn't fully been explained.

Mate, we are in week 5 now, with possibly no good end in sight. The panicans are starting to look right. I hoped DJT could pull a rabbit out of hat because of what happened in June. That does not appear to be the case.

We don't NEED the oil that passes through the strait, the rest of the world does. We produce enough to be independent and then some.
This is a short sighted view on the entire world trading system. COGS will go up on all imports and the price of oil is speculative, so it's going to stay high for a while even if we are energy independent.

Let me guess from sources familiar with the matter?
Or just according to official sources who were in the room?

In a new post this morning on his Truth Social social media platform, President Donald J. Trump addressed the "countries that can not get jet fuel" and refused to join the strikes against Iran, such as the United Kingdom, telling them to buy oil from the United States instead and that they should "go to the strait and TAKE IT." He goes on to say, "You'll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore."

Now we see the value in the admin giving 100 goals, so that people like SDV can pivot to one to claim the admin was right and we're winning, ignoring the rest.
Art of the deal

For the record, I never said it was a good idea.
I said it was exactly what the isolationist wing of MAGA has claimed all along that they wanted and now don't want that anymore.
You can pretty much count on what any of the isolationists want as being a bad idea.

By July this will be yesterday's news and gas will be back down under $3. Vance will be exposing fraud all summer and that will be the talking point heading into Fall. Hopefully Cash and Bondi will make some high profile arrests that will get the internet all excited.
You have over 5 years of proof that none of the bottom half will happen…

That would be an epic failure and make the entire operation a temporary bandaid.

The isolationists wanted to kick the ant pile? Link?

You havent ever been right about anything
