Trump: Oil tanker crews must ‘show some guts,’ sail through Strait of Hormuz

[rightwinger]

Well glad you caught on to that, we’ve been telling you that, we told you why your vote for xiden was horrible and the policies you promoted gave us 21.5 percent inflation

Biden kept us out of war

President Trump, who has never been in a dangerous position, espoused that merchant tanker crews must show some guts and sale the Strait. He apparently does not realize that tankers go where they are told to, and thats driven by their companies' insurance telling them what they can do. Granddad was a merchant mariner. Swam through burning oil and lost an eye during WWII. Had two ships blow out from under him.
What risk has any Trump ever taken? Is Barron on one? Asking for a friend.

Trump: Oil tanker crews must ‘show some guts,’ sail through Strait of Hormuz

President Trump is pushing oil tanker crews to “show some guts” and sail through the Strait of Hormuz.

“These ships should go through the Strait of Hormuz and show some guts, there’s nothing to be afraid of. … They have no Navy, we sunk all their ships,” Trump said, according to Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade, who recounted the president’s remarks during an interview.


Kilmeade also said on “Fox & Friends” in comments highlighted by Mediaite that Trump told him “there is risk in the region, the region is volatile, their launchers, there’s just about 150 left, that’s just about 20 percent of totals, they can’t regenerate, they can’t make any more.”

On Monday, oil prices went above $100 per barrel amid the U.S. and Israel’s conflict with Iran. Brent crude went up by 25 percent, then fell to $96.94 per barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate rose by 28.3 percent.

Stocks also sank Monday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropping by 500 points following the opening bell. The S&P 500 index opened with a 0.9 percent dip, and the Nasdaq composite went down by 0.7 percent after the opening bell.

Not his money or life on the line. Schoolyard bully issuing a dare.

Yes Biden kept us out of war

For decades Presidents got us into wars in Korea, Vietnam, Kuwait, Afghanistan, Iraq killing hundreds of thousands of AMERICANS

Biden avoided US boots on the ground and made Ukraine do the fighting

Trump should have paid attention

Sorry but spending US tax payers dollars hundreds of billions is us very much in a war

Xiden backed every najirt conflict for half a century

Trump should have oaid attention? To allowing Russia to invade? Surrendering to terrroist? Hahaha sure

 

[Zincwarrior]

Oil back up $5 in overnight

 

[Kruska]

Kruska

Those cowards sent boys to die.

This thread is about TACO expecting PRIVATE maritime tankers and their crews, to die for HIS & Bibi's war.

And NOT about US presidents -" no matter which party" to let Americans and US soldiers die for wars they conducted throughout the last 130 years.

I think that was his "biggest" mistake - an immediate order/decision to send NATO troops into Ukraine would have stopped this whole Ukraine/Russian war in it's initial tracks. (Important!! - whilst stating that Ukraine will NOT become a NATO member).

Sorry, it's not my intention to derail this thread.

[rightwinger]

US Soldiers were not doing the fighting or dying
Can’t say that about TRUMP

 

[Frankeneinstein]

The U.S. can underwrite any insurance needed.
Send one tanker through with anti-missile escort ships and other defensive assets as needed, and see what happens.

it's been a long time since I've been over this but I am pretty sure that OPEC contracts stipulate that we [U.S.] "guarantee" their ships/oil safe passage in exchange for them accepting only dollars for their product...which btw is why we went to war with Iraq as the french/europeans had flipped Saddam and he was going to start accepting other currencies franc/euro specifically.

13 died during xiden’s surrender…countless Americans injured or abandoned. Sadly…, and lucky only 7 have thus far died in the engagement with Iran

That don't mean shit. Ask Ukraine.

 

[Frankeneinstein]

what doesn't? what should I ask Ukraine?

 

[Zincwarrior]

US guarantees.

TACO, didn't do shit about the escalating situation between Ukraine and Russia!!! for 4 years.
Looking onto his anti-NATO drivel - then why didn't he ensure Russia that Ukraine will not become a NATO member???

 

[Frankeneinstein]

US guarantees.

feels like one of those things that starts out sideways so...OK

 

[Kruska]

That don't mean shit. Ask Ukraine.

Doesn't mean shit to the Gulf-States either (see the present situation) - some news have it that foremost Saudi-Arabia, is looking into swapping those promises by the USA, with guarantees coming from China.
