Schrödinger's Strait - Trump Thread #162A

[Spandauer]

The Strait of Schrödinger remains open and closed, safe and dangerous, insurable and uninsurable, blockaded and free.

"You put your tanker in, you put your tanker out
In, out, in, out, you sail it all about
You do the Straits of Hormuz and you turn around
That’s what it’s all about!"

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

Got overwhelmed by the 🍊💩's idiot fuckery last time and missed out thread #161 so have designated this one as fake #162...A

Can anyone tell my why? It seems clean daft to me.

OK, the word with a c at the beginning, a y in the middle and an o at the end I can sort of understand, but that one about sports’ shoes beginning with p and ending in ll, I have no idea about!

😂

A fetish troll ruined a word (a very strange fetish troll)

I think there was a troll who got excited about plimmies.

Ah, now I thought it was because they're pumps, and if you change the second letter to the third vowel...then it refers to the manager of a vendor of personal services of an intimate nature.

I take it there has been bugger all progress to ending the war?

It's a difficult one to track down now as all the threads were deleted. A weird troll got off on 'those shoes' and would appear magic like if they were ever mentioned.

You should try typing the final word of your username in a post. Things might have changed but it generally gets the same treatment.

Dh bought me a private eye a couple of weeks that I didn't get a chance to read. I'm taking it on holiday in a couple of weeks because I have a feeling a new one then would pretty much be identical.

But touting for the conmen, grifters and scammers that are Farage and Reform is fine.

All they had to do was one little half sentence, “that the United States does not have to pay back monies that were already paid” — and our Country would be 159 Billion Dollars richer.

But... isn't that money being paid back to American companies? In the US? So how is 'our country' 159 billion dollars less rich if that money is distributed to American citizens?

BBC quoting something from FOX:
^The US president told its White House correspondent: "I've told my people, a little while go they were getting ready to leave and I said 'nope, you're not going to make an 18-hour flight to go there'
"We have all the cards, they can call us any time they want, but you're not going to be making any more 18-hour flights to sit around and talk about nothing."
When asked for comment by the BBC's US partner CBS News, the White House deferred to Trump's quote to Fox News.^

Well, that makes you wonder why KC & QC should bother going.

from NYT:

Abbas Araghchi, the Iranian foreign minister, left Pakistan after a round of discussions with the country’s leaders, Iranian state media said on Saturday.
^^
President Trump has called off the trip to Islamabad to engage in talks about a potential end to the war in Iran. Steve Witkoff, the special envoy, and Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law, had been scheduled to travel to Pakistan today.
“I’ve told my people a little while ago they were getting ready to leave, and I said, ‘Nope, you’re not making an 18 hour flight to go there. We have all the cards,'” Trump said in a statement. “They can call us anytime they want, but you’re not going to be making any more 18 hour flights to sit around talking about nothing.”

eta cross post with @JoshLymanSwagger

Posts are hidden until MNHQ can look at them manually, and then cleared if they're just real posters discussing the thing.

I wonder if MNHQ have asked the AI flingers if their bots can do whitelist moderation.

I should have RTFT 😂

And the rest of the world is 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏽🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏼‍♀️

NYT:
Secretary Pete Hegseth said Friday morning that American forces would maintain a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz “for as long as it takes.”
The day before, a senior Iranian official declared on social media that its fighters had been hiding in sea caves in the strait to “devastate the aggressors.”
Both the United States and Iran have sought to exert control over the Strait of Hormuz since they agreed to a cease-fire. Iran says only ships that have permission from the country’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps will be allowed to pass. The United States Navy says it is intercepting all ships coming from or traveling to Iranian ports.
In short, it is impossible to know who controls this vital shipping route at the mouth of the Persian Gulf.

Is he on the golf course today?

You spoke too soon. Progress has moved into negative territory. Schrödinger's strait just expanded into Schrödinger's peace talks and Trump's playing some sort of silly buggers tit for tat in his head, to humiliate the Iranians.

It's the weekend and markets can't react, but petrol prices fell two days ago, so I'm filling up tomorrow before it goes up again on Monday..

Anyone?
No, me neither.

He probably meant one of the two pictures to have a huge crowd in it, but accidentally put the same picture twice with slightly different colour saturation on one of the copies.

On further investigation, I think he's had the pond cleaned.

Its because of Spam. So much Spam. That's why posts containing the C word go "under review" before being seen.

Swamp? Comparison of swamps?
Fuck knows.
Fuck knows anything, frankly. It gets worse by the day.

He did promise his MAGATS that he was going to Drain the Swamp

Trump's cancelled Witkoff and Kushner's trip to Pakistan claiming the USA holds all the cards.🙄

Groundhog day indeed.
