pepe's billion dollar ships too scared for the strait

Fox News’ Peter Doocy: “Now that you've announced that the U.S. has destroyed all of Iran's mine-laying ships, why can't the U.S. just immediately reopen the Strait of Hormuz?” President Trump: “Well, we could, but it takes two to tango. We have to get people to take their billion dollar ship and drive it up. When Pepe has his big sugar ships coming around and they cost $1 billion and we say, ‘I think it's okay now, Pepe, take your ship, drive it through the Strait of Hormuz.’ He may say, ‘let me wait a little while’ because… these ships are very expensive. They can cost up to $2 billion, so they don't want to take a chance that gee, I think you'll be okay.” “We don't know if they even said any mines. But the thought that they may have is enough to keep people from saying, we don't need it.”
