Senator Chris Murphy - very long X thread

[womanofthehills]

“It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire. “

1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.

2/ CRISIS ONE: Trump believed Iran would not close the Strait of Hormuz. He was wrong. And now oil prices are spiking.

If the Strait stays closed, a global recession will result. It actually may already be too late. Gas prices are the first to spike, but food prices are next

1. What Shitler doesn't know about war is....a lot

And who talked him into this anyway, Kegsbreath, with his loony ideas about Armageddon, or Shady McMaybelline, who's probably been listening to Peter Thiel's lectures on the Antichrist?
