      That doesn’t solve the strait, and the US is about a month away from having too little crude oil to actually run their refineries (you have to maintain a certain pressure level in the pipes or the whole system stops). We haven’t seen the real oil crisis yet. The real oil crisis is 10x gas prices, rationing, grounded planes… It would be cataclysmic.

      Trump has to pick an option here. If declaring victory and walking away was possible he would have done it already.
