This is what TACO has wrought

-Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz
-- Iran relinquishes control over the Strait of Hormuz
- We install a regime in Iran that relinquishes control of the Strait of Hormuz

It looks like TACO has put us in a box with the first option, most likely. F'kin moron.

He also lost US’ Gulf States military base improvements to the tune of $1B, as well as most of our embassies, consulates and CIA offices.

Japan, China, India, Singapore and South Korea are now paying for oil (passing through Hormuz) with Yuan, meaning we can no longer finance our enormous debts with petrodollars. You’re doing a heckuva a job, trumpie.
