President Trump on Wednesday said he is considering the formation of a “joint venture” with Iran to set up tolls in the Strait of Hormuz after the Trump administration and Tehran agreed to a two-week ceasefire deal.

The president also suggested Monday that the U.S. could impose its own tolls on vessels trying to transit through the channel. Leaders in Tehran signaled last week it would install a “toll booth” system to exert a price on ships seeking safe passage through the strait.

    these was a guy in the comments 2-4 Weeks ago, who was already calling for that being the whole reason of the war. Trump and his lackeys are really executing the biggest grift in history. And the World only watches.

    With Iran beging a close russian ally and the Trump administration the same (looking at Vance in Hungary), i dont think its too far fetched, that the whole pupeteer all along has been the Kremlin, achieving multiple goals at the same time. most importantly achieving financing for the continuation oft their Ukraine war.
