Khamenei seems pissed off, and not really in dealmaking mood. Doesn't matter if he was in a dealmaking mood anyway. "Bibi" is calling the shots, and he clearly says he wants Iran so crushed it can never challenge Israeli hegemony over the entire middle east.
Khamenei is betting on the iron law of TACO. Soaring oil prices are not something that Trump has too long of an appetite for,Trump the Magnificent has made his position clear, since the campaign, when he was telling Proles their daughters will need to settle for only two dolls, rather than a dozen. Jim Jordan is only the latest of MAGA leadership to tell Proles to shut up and pay the higher prices for food, fuel, and everything else, because, he says, the project the government has begun is more important that the comfort of mere Proles.
Jordan on gas prices spiking amid Iran conflict: ‘We can live with that’
Jordan told CNN’s Kasie Hunt that Americans have the “common sense” to “understand that to stop this regime that for 47 years has killed Americans, killed Israelis, killed others and killed a number of their own people — to stop them from getting a nuclear weapon is a worthwhile objective.”
“And President Trump is committed to achieving that goal, and if that means prices go up for a time, I think Americans understand, we can live with that,” he continued. “But in the end, we want all that to happen, and we want it all to happen in as quick a time as it possibly can.”https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5782613-jim-jor...Since the US embraced "supply side economics" 45 years ago, the program has been to take from Proles, and give to the rich. Proles have been getting the boiling frog treatment ever since, as they slip a little farther behind, every decade, while the "JCs" become rich beyond the dreams of Avarice. Trump the Great and Powerful may have his eyes on the final looting into destitution of 90% of the population, for the enrichment of the top 1%.
Did you see the piece on the news last night, about a 78 year old guy. working as a Doordash driver, in spite of his obvious mobility issues, because he can't get by without the extra income? "MAGA" made real.
