People in the Gulf region who are used to selling their oil and now they're going to have a hard time doing that.

And obviously other allies that we have, especially in Asia, that are going to get absolutely hammered by this.

And so they're going to be not only trying to stymie us militarily and create damage, especially in Israel, which they can just go whole hog on.

but they're going to try to make sure that they spread that economic pain across the world and then say, remember, the Strait of Hormuz is not closed because of us.

It's closed because of the US.

It's closed because of Israel.

And if you want to broker a great deal, just come to us, like we got you.

Nobody does better deals than us.
