Trump causes the Strait of Hormuz to be peppered with mines

Oil is fungible, so whether we get our oil directly from the Middle East or not, closing down the Middle East will cost us greatly.
And struggling Farmers are once again smacked down by Trump which will likely necessitate Trump needing to create, yet one more welfare package for farmers to save them. The knock on effect on that will be prices rises in grocery stores for everyone.

They were both warned by our military and intelligence services. Trump blew off the warnings.

Trump Knew the Risk of Iran Blocking the Strait of Hormuz. He Still Went to War.​

The president told his White House team that Tehran would likely capitulate before closing the strait, the world’s most vital shipping lane

Before the U.S. went to war, Gen. Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told President Trump that an American attack could prompt Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz.

In multiple briefings ahead of the war, Caine had repeatedly warned Trump that Iran could respond to any American attacks by closing the strait, The Wall Street Journal reported last week. Trump is said to have responded by arguing that Iran would likely surrender before even having time to shut down the waterway.
Wait ...what?

How can that be unless Trump was lying when he was asked by reporters if he was surprised that "nobody had briefed him" about the risk of Iran striking back at Gulf states and closing the strait, Trump responded, "Nobody, nobody, no, no, no. The greatest experts, nobody thought they were going to hit".

it is almost as if Trump was warned by people smarter than him, but he assumed he knew better and then when Iran did what he was warned about Trump was not a big enough to shoulder the blame and instead lied trying to shove the blame off on to inept military advisors who never gave him that warning.
 
The Strait was open until Trump's sneak attack. He did not figure anything out. His bullying nature overcomes any diplomacy or tact. Now Iran can charge ships that want to get through a million bucks apiece. Of course, Iranian oil gets through. Trump is financing Iran and the regime is like it was before Mr. Bluster attacked. Except Iran will be wealthier.
$2 million payable in Chinese yuan.

And tRump lifted sanctions on Iranian oil, helping them with financing to kill the Marines he's sending over.

It's exactly as if tRump were warned by people smarter than him but he ignored them because that is what happened.
 

Trump causes the Strait of Hormuz to be peppered with mines​

Well, it's official, Trump's detractors believe Trump is God, that Trump is the omnipotent Creator, and that Trump is literally responsible for every issue in the galaxy.

Here we see Cypress openly admitting his belief that Trump caused mines to appear in the Strait of Hormuz, according to Trump's plan for all things, ... not the people who actually laid the mines as an act of war.

You can't make this shit up! Too funny!
