Trump on Truth Social:
All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil! President DJT
Trump is basically confirming the WSJ report released in the APAC session saying that he would be open to end the war with Iran without the Strait of Hormuz opening condition.
He's clearly upset as Iran's resistance turned out to be stronger than expected and the damage being done to the US economy continues to increase.
It looks like he really wants to move forward but Iran is dictating conditions now. He will have to swallow his pride this time around as the longer this war drags on, the worse the impact on the economy and markets will be.
I feel like we are getting close to a deal...
