"Vladimir, is there one more favor I can do for you?"

"Well, now that you mention it Donald, there is one thing I would wish for at this time".

"What would that be, Vlad?"

"Well, as you know, we are bogged down in Ukraine and we are having a difficult time financing that 'special operation'. The price of oil is so low that we cannot meet our needs. If you could find a way to raise the price of oil, it would be greatly appreciated.'

"No problem, Vlad. I will find a way to shut down the Strait of Hormuz and drive the price of oil sky high."

As you know, everything I have done while I have been in office has been for the benefit of Mother Russia. I will start a war with Iran. I will bypass Congress. And they will shut down the Strait of Hormuz."

"Thank you, Donald. That will permit us to continue our slaughter in Ukraine."
