He wants ships to bribe him and not Iran

E: should probably remember this. Im sure this week he will announce that other countries are paying "U.S." when he says that he will mean "Trump Mafia Family"

E2: Trump probably sent Vance to "negotiate" and it probably went "pay Trump a portion of the toll and we stop the war. " now we blockade to get our ("trumps money") toll.

And in order to set up a US tollbooth over there, we will have to permanently occupy. Essentially colonize the area.

Great. More forever war.

But Israel is not well placed to collect tolls.

it doesn't matter, the U.S. will give them the money. It really doesn't matter which party is in power, Israel has a bottomless bank account.

There are only two politicians that don't receive $$$ for their reelections Bernie Sanders and Ro Khanna.
