Lara Trump isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, but her "circular logic" on the Strait of Hormuz makes my brain hurt

LET'S UNPACK LARA'S REASONING, SHALL WE?

1). Prior to Trump's war, NO ISSUES IN THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ

2). Trump attacks Iran, resulting in ISSUES IN THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ

3). As a result, Trump had to PRE-EMPTIVELY LAUNCH STIKES IN IRAN to deal with ISSUES IN THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ that DID NOT EXIST before he ATTACKED IRAN.

Did I miss anything?

Leavitt: "The fact that the terrorists are holding the global oil industry hostage by threatening to shut down the Strait of Hormuz just underscores the need for President Trump to launch this operation in the first place"
