Trump is now saying that U.S. taxpayers are going to insure all the ships and tankers as they pass through the Straight of Hormuz, even as Iran has pledged to hit those ships with drones and rockets in order to close off the straight.
Lloyds of London won't even insure these ships at this point. Why should Americans pay the cost of ship damage -- which could run into the tens of BILLIONS of dollars -- as Trump tries to defy Iran after attacking Iran and starting this whole thing in the first place?
Trump should pledge his own personal fortune to insure all the ships. Instead, he wants you and I to pay for all the damage. Insane.
