Washington signed a document acknowledging Iran's administrative authority over the Strait for at least the 60 day period of the MOU

The MOU said no such thing.

One thing I would like to hear my fellow American CofB&F members about is if this is being considered political suicide or not, related to the mid terms, for POTUS to continue down this path.

 

Political attempted suicide at this point. I think the Democratic Socialist movement might manage to seize defeat from the jaws of victory (for the Democrats at midterm elections that is). I think the jury's still out, and if the Democrats ran some moderates, they'd sweep the election. On the other hand, if Democrats ran moderates, I don't think Trump would have gotten elected anyway. 

 

I think the American electorate overall dislikes progressives, and then all of the sudden, the democratic socialists make the progressives look like the "middle". 

 

Unfortunately for our two party system, the Democratic Party seems to be pushing further and further towards the extreme left, and the GOP has managed to eliminate most MAGA dissenters as well. Probably why we have 45% of voters  as independents now, unfortunately they are held hostage to the primary elections of the other 55% of voters.
