Rubio Claims Trump’s Iran War “Over”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the Iran war is "over" during congressional testimony on Tuesday, in spite of an admission that negotiations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and curb Tehran's uranium enrichment are not guaranteed to produce a deal. Rubio's declaration that the war had ended came during a testy back-and-forth with former Senate colleague, New Jersey Democrat Cory Booker, who shot back at the U.S. official during a Foreign Relations hearing: "The war is not over."

If it's "over," perhaps Lil' Marco will volunteer to plant his butt in the proverbial crow's nest and guide the first oil-laden ship through the Strait of Hormuz. Thanks, pinche Marco, don't trip over those Florsheims on your way out the door.

Let's face it: People like Trump and Rubio must have mystical powers; to will the existence of wars and then will them out again.

I, speaking for myself, am impressed.
