Trump Ramps Up Threats Against Iran on Hormuz Because He Isn't Getting His Cut

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

(Bloomberg) — President Donald Trump said he was “optimistic” about a deal with Iran but later threatened Tehran over charging fees in the Strait of Hormuz, as Israeli strikes in Lebanon and the continued closure of the vital waterway jeopardized diplomatic talks.

“There are reports that Iran is charging fees to tankers going through the Hormuz Strait,” Trump wrote Thursday on social media. “They better not be and, if they are, they better stop now!”

In a later post, Trump said Iran was doing a “very poor” job of allowing oil to pass through the waterway. “That is not the agreement we have!” he wrote.

Trump had earlier described Iran’s leaders as “much more reasonable” than their public comments would suggest in a phone interview with NBC News. The US president also said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was “going to low-key it” with Israeli airstrikes on Tehran-backed Hezbollah militants in Lebanon, after the two leaders spoke by phone on Wednesday.

2. Is he upset because they want to charge fees?

Is he upset because he doesn't think he'll get a cut of the profits?
Does he think he can get a cut of the profits and that would be a good "deal" that would put an end to this business transaction?

The press doesn't know because we've gone through the looking glass and they are looking for answers from someone who is insane.
