The US will make a LOT of money from selling their oil at premium. https://x.com/sentdefender/status/2032091651422720197 *Edit: Now I understand that some companies may make more money, but the economy overall may suffer. *Seems like I hit a nerve with stereotypical people groups.
One of the self-owns of all time. Triggering a global supply chain crisis right before midterms is bottom of the barrel strategy. But then again, who expects competency from any recent American administration, most especially this one?
This is all about Hormuz, isn't it? Even though the attack itself was in Basra, Iraq, the intention seems to be to terrify any companies thinking of sailing through the Persian Gulf. I wonder how many more caches of drones Iran has lying around. Days? Weeks? Years? There's also the question of how to resupply any anti-drone systems in the area - maybe we'll see convoys carrying interceptors crossing the Arabian deser…
'Nope'
They'll signal something else later and things will open up.
These tankers aren't easily replaceable are they? As in it takes significant time to build them. Even if Trump's claims that the war will end shortly were true. Oil prices are guaranteed not coming down if many more of these ships are sunk.

They don’t need Venezuela look up Guyana next door its the new oil country in the region
What makes you think that if this was the case that the US wouldn’t also take action there to secure those oil exports?

I expect more competency from US Presidential administrations, and also expect more competency and indpendence from the various parts of the executive branch, which should execute their missions without micro-management from the President, and I further expect far more competence from Congress and the US Supreme Court in setting law and enforcing law. It's bad enough that we have an incompetent Presidential administration, but that damage should be limited by the independence of the other parts of the government. The blast radius should be far smaller, we shouldn't have a King.
