    Iran says the straits are open

    Trump thanked them for doing it

    Iran says they will be open for the 10 day cease fire between Israel and Lebanon.
    Trump says the blockade of Iranian ports is still on till everything is agreed but that is very close.

    Oil dropped 10% on the announcement.

    FWIW

        "But Susie started it. Therefore it is justified to suspend the laws of economics and ignore supply and demand."



        Trumps starts the war with Iran of which he's losing, in retaliation the Iranian's stop 20% of global oil shipments resulting in major supply issues throughout the world of Oil, which in turn has sent prices upwards 30-40% and your only ever posted concern regarding Trump's war with Iran is Australia's Fuel Excise TAX Cut.

        As for Fertilizer add another 30-40% since the fall, not mention what will it do to freight costs for everything.

        But, as you have posted AB5 and we all should rest assured that Trump is

        "The only politician who has an actual concrete plan for economic prosperity"..

          Couldn’t imagine being on one of the 4 cruise ships leaving the gulf when other ships are being shot at.

          Funds are still long on corn and beans.

            But when Biden started the war against Russia and drove oil oil and fertilizer prices higher than today, that was different because it was your tribe that started it.
            So now you are re-wrinting history? Ukraine invaded Russia?

              Out of curiosity, what is the narrative the CBC has been telling you?

              I didn't say anything about the Ukraine.

                Forage, how many times per day is it necessary to disavow what Trump turned out to be?

                We have been through this multiple times before.

                He assembled what appeared to be a competent team of outsiders. As opposed to the permanent mono party hacks who surrounded him the first time around. They said all the right things. If any of them were actually genuine, Trump certainly doesn't listen to them.

                For a very brief period it looked like the US might be heading in the direction of fiscal responsibility and no more endless wars.

                As we know now, democracy is a facade. Doesn't matter who the voters vote for, whoever is actually in power will get their way one way or the other.

                Since you are quickly becoming the chief conspiracy theorist around here, I will leave it up to you to speculate as to why it turned out this way.

                    They are all crooks. Not sure how old u are but I’ve been around long enuf to know none of them have our best interests at heart. U vote for the candidate that tells u the things u like to hear. Then they do some of them and the rest of the time they do what they want. Comes down to who u can tolerate. I don’t know one politician that leaves with less money in his/her/its pocket than they went in with. Knowing and seeing what I see now I still support the idiot in charge down there because the other idiots policy’s were wayyyyyy stupider.
