    Wow. If he actually does this… it would be hilarious. He would have fucked over the global economy by wging illegal war with Iran, and then ensuring its destruction by making absolutely sure nobodies vessels can get through whether or not they pay the toll.

    I mean it’s not totally funny because of the return to shanty towns, community soup kitchens, and eating squirrels, but kind of funny to see other leaders likely turn on him soon for it.
