And which Iran then opened to traffic, only to close it again because Israel ~~couldn't~~ would not honor their part. Which then resulted in the US Navy blockading it also. Is the straight in superposition? I can't tell.
because Israel couldn’t honor their part

Sorry, I misspoke. Because Israel would not honor their part. Word choice is important, thank you.
Yeah, but at least he completely invalidated the prior agreement we had with them, and it had the n[CLANG] President's name on it. That was obviously a threat to white supremacy to have evidence of a n[CLANG] Presidential legacy.
Like the 90 deals in 90 days for his tariffs that never came to fruition, or his concepts of a plan for healthcare?
