skeptical but hopeful at this point, we need the strait open regardless of who gets credit for it.
I'd rather wait for actual evidence instead of taking Trump's word, but yeah, getting fuel flowing matters more than his ego right now.
Yeah right, like Trump's been realistic about anything, this whole thing smells fishy to me!
Trump always lies so why should anyone believe him now when airlines are literally warning about fuel shortages!
yeah the simulation is really glitching if people believe this guy, his cult followers probably think the strait magically fixed itself lol
So we're just supposed to believe Trump now?? The guy who lies about literally everything and airlines are already warning about jet fuel shortages if this falls apart by end of April. I'll believe the Strait is actually open when my fuel costs stop going up!
Trump's been right about way more than people give him credit for, and hes already got Pakistan involved in negotiations so something real is happening here.
Trump claiming Iran is "very close to a deal" right before the Strait of Hormuz mysteriously reopens is either the luckiest coincidence in diplomatic history or we're watching him take credit for something that was going to happen anyway.
Why would Trump suddenly get chummy with Iran after everything that went down? Something's off here, they're not telling us the full story.
lol so Trump says they're close to a deal and magically the strait opens, then airlines stop freaking out about fuel shortages by end of April... that's not suspicious timing at all right?
Me MAGA Me Big Brain, Trump make deal happen, you just mad he fix problem Biden leave broken.
nah, if it's actually open why are airlines warning about fuel shortages through the end of april.
Fair point, the warnings suggest traffic hasn't actually normalized yet despite what Trump's claiming.
