Sounds like Iran's leaders started talking shit tonight and Trump responded with threats.

I'm shocked, SHOCKED!!, that this deal could fall apart.

Take out the gays and rights for women, and the extreme left and hardline Muslims are exactly the same. :)

U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday that Iranian ships will no longer be able to travel through the Strait of Hormuz and America would charge a 20% toll on other countries' eligible cargo, escalating tensions after weekend of attacks by both nations to assert control of the critical waterway.
...
"That’s international waterway. There isn’t a nation on Earth that supports having to pay money to go through the Straits,” Rubio told reporters in Bahrain on June 25.

Rubio also said there was “zero support among the Gulf countries for any sort of toll or fees or anything that charges for the use of international waters. The president’s made it clear that’s not going to happen. It’s not going to be a part of this. It cannot be a part of this.”
Remember when the US was good? Pepperidge Farms does.

I think Trump was trying to do to Iran what Iran was telling people they were going to do, but as usual, his lips were running before his mouth.

Iran was threatening the same tolls. I'd bet Trump was making the threat as a fuck you to them and all the Euro countries who didn't help.

Who knows? Give it 5 minutes and what he says will change.

I remember the straight being open, but I wouldn't say things were fine.

I also remember 30-40K (and climbing) people massacred. If the world's leaders actually gave two shits about their fellow human beings no country would have sat on their hands.

And don't get me wrong, I'm not giving Trump ANY credit for "doing the right thing". He lost that argument the second he started having any talks that left the current regime in charge.
