Trump said the Strait of Hormuz was open, but it wasn’t.
Trump said Iran was ready for peace talks, but it’s not.
Trump said Iran agreed to turn over its uranium stockpile, but it hadn’t. Trump said Iran’s navy was destroyed, obliterated and gone. Then what was shooting at ships trying to transit the Strait when Trump said it was open?
The reality is, thanks to Trump’s unprovoked attack, Iran now controls the global economy.
In Trump’s delusional mind and in his social media posts, the economy is doing fine. He said you don’t mind the gas price increases. You don’t mind paying more for food. You are cool with inflation.
None of that is true. Iran’s deputy foreign minister said, “I can tell you that no enriched material is going to be shipped to the United States.”
