BARTIROMO: The blockade in the strait, the opening up capacity in the United States -- is this gonna be enough to lower the price of oil and gas?

TRUMP: Well, eventually it's gonna be lower. No, it might not happen initially but it's gonna go down. Look, the Dow hit 50,000. pic.twitter.com/DTCRXTV2Oa

Pretty sure it started when Trump backed out of the JCPOA, and Congress clapped like trained seals. Now Iran is “obliterated,” but we have to destroy them in an hour because they closed the Strait that we’ve now closed because NOBODY PUTS BABY IN THE CORNER!
