Jon Favreau

I mean, because I think he probably ad-libbed a bit of the Stone Age thing from his truth, obviously, because he originally said, but I think, and then he's in the prompter like, oh, but discussions are ongoing.

I guess I'm supposed to talk about diplomacy.

So your message box take on the speech is that Trump declared victory, but admitted defeat.

Say more about that.

Which we all basically monitor with Google Maps, Google Satellite.

That's what he said.

We can look at it.

I think that's true.

And I also, it explains the incoherent, conflicting messages because he also can't, like for the Strait of Hormuz, he knows that we need the Strait of Hormuz open.

He understands, at least the people around him understand, that oil is a commodity.

There's a global oil market.

Just because we have a bunch of oil doesn't mean that we're not gonna be paying more for it if there is a disruption in the Strait of Hormuz.

He can't plead with our allies to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz because then he looks weak and he already pissed them off anyway by starting the war without consulting them and insulting them basically every single day since.

He has clearly decided that a U.S.

military operation to reopen the Strait or to take control of the Strait is too risky.

So he's not doing that.

But he also knows like he does.

So he doesn't know what to do.

So basically, he's going to say we don't need it.

But then he's now negging Europe and other countries to reopen it for us and saying and like making himself sound tough because he can't say the truth, which is we're fucked.
