Summary
The HITO men talk about the seemingly impending war with Iran and Trump's illegal tariffs. The US military build-up near Iran is reaching 2003 and 1991 levels, and if there's one thing we know about military build-ups, it's that they don't happen for nothing. Trump's might makes right politics amid nuclear “negotiations” may drag us into yet another war in the Middle East! Also discussed is Trump's infatuation with Tariffs. Despite the 6-3 SCOTUS ruling deeming his liberation day tariffs illegal, Trump is doing everything he can to raise prices on everything you want to buy.
