Donald Trump erupted at the United Kingdom Tuesday morning over its refusal to join the United States in its war against Iran, issuing the European nation a notice that the United States would no longer be offering it “help.”
“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,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
He’s circling the drain.
TACO
we have plenty
build up some delayed courage […] and just TAKE IT
So, I heard the US is currently occupied in the middle east. Maye we should build up the courage and just take the US oil. Canada might be a nice staging ground.
The US was never helping anyone else.
They are planning to get cheap bitumen from Venezeul because Canada is impossible to conquer, and in order to turn that crap into viable crude, you mix it with water and top grade crude.
For example, the top grade crude that Iran produces.
IIRC the UK is the only NATO nation to send a warship in the strait of Ormuz. Way to « art of the deal » big guy
