Don't be afraid of the Strait of Hormuz. Don't let it dominate your life.

when he didn't drone on for at least an hour--- I missed the beginning as I walked back and forth to the store and got back at about 9:10 pm---
and only saw the few minutes after that, and it was very suddenly over---

I was "DISAPPOINTED" that we missed the opportunity to see him "blowing bubbles with his own spit"
or blowing bubbles with his own SHIT....

(Yeah, it was pre-recorded, so very likely BOTH of those things actually happened,
but they were CUT by his gloved and bio-suited "handlers"---

and that's why this speech was so short!)

I don't know if he mentioned the ballroom or not. It was uncharacteristically short at 19 minutes. The Supreme Court mess may have had something to do with that.
