Did it even open yet? I'm so confused. I thought the U.S. was turning all the ships back and now Iran closed it from their end too

They closed it when Trump said it was open to everyone but Iran.  So, he closed it again.

Well, anything Trump says is false. I always work backwards from that premise.

If he says something that sounds like it would be good for the world, it's a lie.  If it sounds like something awful and appalling, he's serious.

We say one thing. Iran says another. Markets keep pumping regardless. Everything is a lie

To think, once upon a time, American Conservatives were all about making sure China wasn't happy.

You really think Trump needs to be compromised to kiss the ass of the other biggest economy in the world? He was born to suck Xi’s member

Fair enough. Melania isn't the only one who's whored/ing herself out for fun and profit in that marriage.

Why do they even write articles about what Trump says? Most of the time he's lying.

Why does an American president want a Chinese president to be happy about a war he started?

He was happy too when it was open in the first place.

You don't need journalistic accountability if you just put "Someone says" before it. Then anything can be true.

I’m sure the deal was made between China and Iran and the orange a*** had nothing to do with it except shoot off his mouth.

China has a huge stake in the gulf. It’s a lot more important for them for it to be open than it is for the US.

Dear “news” media outlets, as soon as I (and I assume millions of others.) hear the phrase “Trump says” we know it’s a lie and never happened.

Lol when Iran is more trusty than the piece of shit at the head of the US. Get fucked, maga. Whoever voted for that pedophile deserve the same treatment he'll get in 3 years.

Yeah it's not just a joke, I can truly feel on listnook comments that Iran is starting to have a better image than the U.S. Both are currently bad in their very own special way, but it's still shocking to see how bad a hegemony that should have moral superiority is now in the same playing field as small-time depots.

Heavy_Milk2757 1 day ago +8
Yep. It's closed. It's hard to tell who is telling the truth of course. Is it the religious hardliners who believe in child marriage, kill protesters and worship a paedophile? Or Iran?

Every time he flip-flops the strait, Trump makes money trading oil futures. Iran wants a piece of that racket too.

Why are we still reporting things Trump says? The guy lies so often the only news story would be an instance of him telling the truth.

lol Xi is ignoring Trump. At best he’s mildly amused watching the utter failure laid bare.
