Sending U.S. Navy Ships into the Gulf to Escort Oil Tankers has NO STRATEGIC VALUE.

Trump would be risking U.S. ships and sailors' lives for nothing!

It is foolhardy! Even worse than RN Admiral Tom Phillips sailing with Force Z into the Gulf of Thailand in December 1941. At least Phillips was trying to stop an amphibious invasion of Malaya, not trying to affect the price of gasoline.

Well this war is about oil and resources.
So this is how things are ran.

Well this war is about oil and resources.

Trump is obsessed with gas prices.

He'd do much better to concern himself with the future threat of an Iranian nuclear weapon.

@beckyromero The only way he can really be thrown out is if he loses this war.

@Zonuss

At this point, the chief concern has to be Iran's future nuclear weapons program - not the cost at the pump.

@beckyromero True. But I think there's moito this story than that. And they are lying about the number of injured soldiers over there too. 🤔
