So it's a very clear connection.

This is not just some amorphous thing that's happening across the globe, hard to follow.

It is directly connected to the price that people are paying for gas at the pump.

Yeah, and that's the problem is the cost.

And thinking about all of that money that could have been spent here at home.

And that was a big thing Trump talked about in 2024 is, why are we spending all this money in Ukraine when we could be spending it here at home?

But he's doing that in Iran.

And this Iran stuff makes a lot less sense than intervening with Ukraine.

And then the other thing that's even more troubling is when you see now that because of all the block industry of Hormuz,

Gas prices are not going to go down for a very, very long time.

It's not like they come to a deal and gas prices immediately drop.

So gas prices are going to remain high through the election.

I do not see them getting a win before November.

And the biggest losers of all this are going to be consumers.

It's going to be the voters who went to the polls in 2024 and said, I'm not going to vote for Joe Biden because he's

costs are too high and he doesn't give a shit about inflation.

And Donald Trump very clearly gives even less of a shit about inflation than Joe Biden does.

It makes me pissed.

And no, I don't think anyone wants this.

I don't think anyone asked for this.
