💥🚨The majority of economist agree, if the strait of Hormuz is not opened soon the world economy will enter a major crisis that has a high probability of triggering a new global depression.💥🚨 Below I break down the cold hard facts.. https://t.co/5Q5nhrnbGi
Special Reports & Tweets host dissects the Strait of Hormuz crisis, noting 27% of oil and 30% of fertilizer pass through this chokepoint currently closed for a month. Citing Pentagon assessments predicting regime change failure and Larry Fink's "COVID 2.0" depression forecast, the segment argues prolonged closure will spike inflation, forcing rate hikes that destroy Trump's economic plan. Ultimately, the analysis suggests Trump was set up by stubborn geopolitical realities, risking a global chain reaction that threatens to derail his administration's recovery efforts entirely.

Realist Look at the Facts00:03:14
All right, I'm going to make this short and sweet for people that aren't informed.
I'm just going to give you some terms and things you can search if you actually want to be informed.
If you want to just say I'm wrong, just say I'm wrong, then just I'm not going to bother with you.
But for serious people, here's the deal I don't support the MOLAs.
I don't like the Iran dictatorship.
I'd be glad they disappeared.
That said, the Pentagon gave Trump an assessment five days before saying less than a 90% chance of success of regime change.
This is all about that, not about getting uranium, not about getting the missiles, but regime change.
And Israel threw its weight around for the first time ever.
You can't argue, took control of U.S. foreign policy.
That's a problem whether you support the policy or not.
We shouldn't have a foreign power doing that.
But economists are on record, the Pentagon assessments are on record, the RAND Corporation, that a closure of the Strait of Hormuz for a month or more would cause a chain reaction in the global economy, particularly now with inflation so high.
So when I get up here and I explain that if this keeps staying closed, it will destroy Trump's recovery, people say, well, please elaborate.
And I do.
Over a year and a half ago, I started having economists on about this.
I've had them on the last few weeks.
The basis of inflation overall is energy.
Fertilizer for plants that humans eat and animals that humans eat, the plants that they eat, and then, of course, natural gas and oil.
So, if you have an inflation problem, the biggest thing you can do is lower the cost of energy.
That fixes it, which Trump's been doing a great job of doing with all his different policies until this came along.
So, because 27% of oil and gas goes through there and 30% of the fertilizer, it's been cut off for around a month.
If it goes much longer, it might be too late now.
It will cause an uptick in global inflation, and then central banks will raise interest rates.
The Federal Reserve has already said they're getting ready to because of the Strait of Hormuz.
And then that creates a chain reaction that kills the actuary plan that Trump has laid out to slow and then stop inflation while bringing jobs back and upping salaries and upping overall pay.
So, this is the whole Trump plan.
The reason Trump has been obsessing over the private Federal Reserve, not lowering interest rates, went after Jerome Powell, did all that great stuff, got him to lower them about half as much as they should have been.
Now they're saying they're going to raise them, and their excuse is the inflation.
And it goes on and on from there, okay?
So that is the issue.
Trump believed he could have the regime fall in four days.
It didn't happen.
It didn't happen.
And now here we are.
Whether you're for the war because you want to go to the movies or not, it's academic.
People say, well, we shouldn't care about money.
The left wants us cloured and pivoted, they want us bankrupted.
The head of the World Economic Forum, Larry Fink, head of BlackRock, he's so happy right now saying look for a global depression.
This is their COVID 2.0.
They used COVID to shut down Trump's recovery before.
Now they're doing it again.
Trump walked in the trap.
I talked to two people yesterday who talked to Trump at length.
He is now saying, oh man, we need to end this.
That's why he's threatening Iran to blow up all their infrastructure, and he is.
They don't know what the trade of our moves, but they don't care because their back's against the wall.
So these are facts, folks.
These are stubborn facts.
I'm being pro war, anti war.
It's about being a realist looking at the facts.
Trump needs an off ramp now, but Iran's not backing down.
I wish they'd fall tomorrow.
Not going to happen, as I predicted 37 days ago when this started.
That's the facts.
Hope it explains it to you.
People can post the documents and everything else out of this for you, or you can look them up for yourselves.
