This seems like a good time to remind you that Homeland Security is spending tens of billions of dollars building concentration camps in 20+ U.S. states. With fuel rationing and energy lockdowns coming, it's obvious these camps aren't for "migrants."

The most effective way to enslave a population is not to conquer their borders, but to first collapse their abundance and then offer to manage the scarcity. (i.e. food and fuel rationing, travel restrictions, etc.)

The only way Trump can prevent the Democrats from seizing control and ruling America for the next decade is to destroy America first.

That seems to be exactly what he's trying to do at this point: Burn it all down before the Democrats take control.

If the U.S. controlled the Straight of Hormuz, the world's energy crisis would get FAR WORSE, because Trump would block all energy shipments to China and would use control of the Strait as a means of punitive leverage against nations (like India, South Korea, Japan or Taiwan) that failed to demonstrate sufficient obedience to Trump's demands.

If you think Iran's current restrictions on energy transportation are bad, it would be far, far worse under U.S. control, as repeatedly demonstrated by the way the U.S. weaponizes the SWIFT inter-bank financial transfer system to punish selected nations like Russia, Iran and Cuba.
