The active fighting has stopped, the blockade has been lifted, and Iran is able to sell oil again

Opening the Strait was the objective, so the US Proles can have cheap gas, until the day after the election, when the Proles are, again, expendable. Clearly, Trump's political advisors told him that, regardless what the Israeli tools in Congress and the media may want, the GOP would be slaughtered in November, if people are paying a price higher than they are used to, for gas. This is actually encouraging: that we will have "free and fair" elections this fall. What Trump does is always, first and foremost, what benefits himself.

They were serious as a heart attack, because Trump desperately need the Strait open again.

Trump the God is strutting around, trying to gaslight everyone that it was Iran that was "desperate to get something on paper", and "surrendered", to advance his narrative about what a big wiener he is. But his objective was to temporarily knock down the price of gas, period, so *he* was "desperate to get something on paper" to justify opening the Strait, with Iran's cooperation.

No kabuki there; that was all real, and Iran forced Trump to capitulate.

We shall see, in the fullness of time.

Keep in mind, Trump will lie about anything, anywhere, any time, to polish his image, even when his lies are easily exposed, and he looks like a bellowing fool, to everyone but his a$$ kissers.

Italy cancels US visit after "offensive" Trump remarks

Italy’s foreign minister has canceled a planned visit to the United States over comments President Donald Trump made about Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni earlier this week.

Trump told Italy’s La7 broadcaster that Meloni—ideologically one of Trump’s closest allies in Europe—had him “begged” for a photograph with him during the closely-watched G7 summit of world leaders between Monday and Wednesday.

“She wanted a picture with me so badly,” Trump said. “I wouldn’t have taken it, but I felt sorry for her.”

-------

Meloni swiftly responded to Trump’s claims on social media, saying she was “stunned” and that his account was made up.

“Neither I nor Italy ever beg,” she said.
