It's the beginning of a very rough time in our economy, of course.

But it's hardly the end of it.

What we've been doing for likely your lifetime if you're under 80 is, well, it's not working anymore.

It hasn't actually helped the United States long term.

Your grandkids at this point don't have the promise of a better life than you had.

So it's not actually a successful experiment.

And now it's ending because we've reached the limits of our demonstrated power.

We can't open the Straits of Hormuz.

The president of the United States said that last night.

Someone else do it.

So we're done.

That's okay.

It was always going to end.

Hopefully we can get out without a nuclear exchange, but now it is ending.

And there's going to be a lot of suffering and sadness as a result of that end, but there will also be, there is an awful lot of promise.

Promise that the United States can act in its own interest, that it can be reasonable, that it will not be governed by deranged people seized by hubris or get way out over their skis and get a ton of people killed.

You don't have to occupy countries you've never been to, can't identify on a map.

What we're doing doesn't work, whether you approve of it morally or not.

And we're going to do something else.

And that something else is starting right now.
