Trump is tired of winning.

Trump on Iran: "We've had regime change. We're dealing with people that are much more rational…We'll be leaving very soon, and if France or some other country wants to get oil or gas, they'll go up through the strait…We have nothing to do with that."

He acts like if America walks away then all these countries are going to be screwed and America will just be the beacon of light for the world. I’m sure that someone has floated this in his ear that America can make up the difference and American oil companies will get rich. I honestly think it’s more likely that Europe will just give in to Iran and pays tolls but they aren’t going to grovel to America. I would imagine for awhile Europeans would rather pay more than grovel to America for help. I could see a lot of Asian countries paying them in Chinese currency instead of dollars as well. It really is incredible how much damage worldwide he has done in 1 year.
