MAGA Voter Demolishes Trump’s Major Iran Claim on Live TV
MAGA voters are increasingly disappointed with the president’s performance.
‘Matt from Las Vegas’ ripped into Donald Trump during a call segment on Real America’s Voice Tuesday, furious at the White House over how it handled the war in Iran — and at the narrative the administration has presented and sold to its voting base in the meantime.
“If we have decimated the Iranian navy and air force like this, how come we can’t get a ship through the Strait of Hormuz?” request the caller. “Whose intelligence are they insulting?
“If they don’t have a navy, how can they stop the ships? What do they use to stop the ships and redirect them?” » the caller continued. “My own government is lying to me and, I hate to say it, Mr. Trump. And I love Donald Trump. But you know, all of this – they annihilate – they’re full of shit.”
“Iran won this round, as far as I’m concerned,” he added.
The cost of oil and gas has skyrocketed since the start of the war, a fact that has only been compounded by Tehran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway for the region’s commerce.
The average cost of gasoline nationwide is $4.53 per gallon, and large areas of the United States exceed $5 per gallon, according to the AAA’s Price Tracking System. It’s approximately 50 percent higher than prices were before the start of the war. In some areas of California, like Mono County, fuel costs are more than $7 per gallon.
The situation has become so dire that members of the Trump cabinet have stopped speculating as to when prices will actually fall. Analysts, for their part, have projected that gas and oil prices will likely continue to rise, potentially even after the midterms.
The strait has remained largely closed, despite several attempts to reopen the trading point amid difficult peace negotiations.
The war itself – which has so far lasted about 12 weeks – is costing the United States about 1 billion dollars per dayaccording to initial estimates from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Matt from Las Vegas further claimed that Iran had Trump “by the short hair” over economic disruption and had put the White House in a position where it had to beg China for help.
“And I somehow think that we are a paper tiger, just like Russia,” the interlocutor concluded.
The show’s host, Eric Bolling, countered, saying Iranian “mosquito boats” and underwater mining operations were enough to keep the area under control.
“We didn’t lose, they were crushed, they’re clearly the losers,” Bolling said desperately.
