But the first thing is this was a surrender.

I mean, it's objectively a surrender.

And I actually find it interesting now that if you even go to Wikipedia, the Wikipedia page for this war, the editors have since added when it says the result of the war for 2026 Iran war, it says result Iranian victory.

And it talks about

this memorandum.

It says regime change failure, straight up Hormuz crisis, escalation of the Israeli Hezbollah conflict, global economic disruption, and fuel crisis.

So the objective kind of data surrounding this war points to the fact that this was a surrender for the United States.

In addition to that, I could point you to an age-old adage, idiom, if you will, to the victor goes the spoils, okay?

The winning country is getting a lot of money,

out of this.

And you could say it's coming directly from the United States, or you could say it's coming from these nations in the Middle East who are going to do it.

Either way, it's coming from the United States in some capacity because we're going to be funding those nations as well.

And this is the kind of thing that Republicans would endlessly go after Obama about and Biden about when they didn't do anything even close to this ever.

All Obama and Biden maybe did was unfreeze Iran's funds that they already had.

Something that Trump is doing as well with this memorandum of understanding at actually a greater scale.

But in addition to that, giving them a $300 billion reconstruction fund to build.

So you have the United States spending, you know, hundreds of billions of dollars for the war and now managing this $300 billion fund to give Iran so that they could rebuild.

I think that's a pretty good sign that Iran has won this thing.

I mean, when you look at it and, you know, I could pull up all the receipts of Don Jr.
