Trump’s approval is finally creeping down. John Fetterman and other racist, right wing Democrats are very worried about it, and are looking to cave again to help Trump end democracy entirely. I expect they will cave again soon.

There are gas lines all over the world, particularly in Asia. Many other critical goods are not getting through the 'strait of Hormuz.
