Trump has been saying he won the war against Iran and is proud to have a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz. But he does not mention the ships are still trapped inside the strait and he has no plan to free them.

He went to China to persuade it leaders. The outcome is not what he wants.

Meanwhile, the prices are rising. But he needs to keep himself busy, with Netanyahu's tactic — endless war. But he can't keep fighting Iran and he can't start a war with China.

He can only afford a soft target. He can afford to invade Cuba if Iran is not attacking Israel anymore. He simply does not or cannot care much about reopening the strait.
