How do you say "greedy bastard" in Persion? Azerbaijani (Azeri), Kurdish, Luri, and Arabic? I think it's safe to say all you have to do is say "Trump".

The world is witnessing Trump's "Art of the Steal" as he plays our military and stock markets to his advantage. Setting deadly threats of bombing and destroying on Monday, and changing his mind on Friday. All the while he and his stock market followers use sophisticated algorithms to buy low and sell high.

If you google "how does the Iran conflict impact oil investments?" you get; Answer: "Due to Iran's retaliatory actions, the global oil market is suffering a supply shortfall larger than those in the 1973 and 1979 oil crises combined. The full brunt of the shock isn't yet being felt in the United States, despite U.S gasoline prices reaching $4 per gallon for the first time since 2022."

Simply put "Americans, people of the world, prepare to be BROKE!!"

That's the Cliff Notes version of what's going on. Now google "who's making money from the Iran war?"; Answer: "Traders have been betting millions of dollars shortly before US President Donald Trump makes big announcements throughout his second term."

See when trouble is on the horizon in the Middle East savvy investors use "put-option spreads" to profit off the expected stock market decline. Simple terms; "They bet that things will get worse". How wonderful FOR THEM!

It's kind of like betting you will lose a drag race, betting on the other car, knowing you've got a bad engine.

These investors, mostly large firms in tall buildings, some on secluded islands, some in mansions are the billionaires that supported Trump's campaign. (Some are Trump family members too).

But, making billions off oil futures isn't enough for Mr. "Patriotic"... no way. He's also devising ways to use the American military and navy and intelligence community, satellites, spy networks etc to magistrate the Strait of Hormuz. It's become Trump's cash cow.

Surprisingly, Iran is trying to do the same. Over the weekend Iran's navy threatened a ship that was told it had safe passage. Soon after the U.S. Navy seized a ship that was in violation of Trump's toll-gate blockade. Two countries engaged in a dangerous game of checkers.

While all this is going on Putin has been selling his oil to countries that relied on the passage through the Strait. It's been a "win-win" for these "world leaders". While people suffer and die.

Now, some people that are critical of Trump's manipulative corruption (Like me!) think all this is happening because Trump is dumb. Get that notion out of your head right now. Trump is wickedly, evilly, disgustingly brilliant. It's unfortunate he uses his talents for only HIS gain but it's true. This man has become rich playing the business world, his family members, his friends, and now the world!

For this reason I have to quote the law of engagement "NEVER UNDERESTIMATE YOUR OPPONENT". Something the Working Middle Class Poor should have done in 2016, 2020, 2024.

Do not believe the rumors that Trump ignored warnings by U.S. military leaders that Iran would retaliate if attacked. Nope Trump saw a road to more profits. He stepped on a hornets nest, and while the world is dodging angry insects he's singing all the way to his stock portfolio displays. He's probably sitting on his golden toilet right now as I write this counting his daily gains. Drooling.

Trump sold his followers on the notion attacking Iran would "make the world safer". He gave speeches, heard around the world saying "we're going to spread freedom, liberate the Iranian people from tyranny, protect us from nuclear war".

Now we see what his true intentions were all along. TO PROFIT FROM THE IRAN WAR.

"Ka-Ching!"
