They wouldn't really know, are we in a war?

Are we not in a war?

What does that peace plan involve?

Are we bombing?

Is the Straits of Hormuz open?

Is it not open?

His approval ratings are going down.

Trump talks in superlatives.

People discount that.

I don't think the US Navy is going to be escorting ships through the strait.

I think they're going to be telling ships which lanes are safe.

But I don't think you're going to be seeing actual Navy ships doing an escort, which is what it would take to get the ships through.
