DOOCY: “Can you explain what the difference is between giving Iran US Dollars and unfreezing US Dollars?” TRUMP: “We have taken a lot of their money … If we didn't give it back, nobody would ever invest in the dollar again.”

That’s exactly what Biden did to Russia when the Ukraine war started and that’s what gave BRICS the pretense to form so Trump is literally just telling the world that what Biden did will not be official US foreign policy going forward which is smart if you care about the dollar

We can't just steal another country's oil revenues if we are making peace with them. This is money that has been held from them because of sanctions. We have to be moral no matter how immoral our foe is.

This you.

It wasn’t our money that we froze. It was theirs. We are merely holding it until they agree to our terms.

What about Russia's money then?

@Grok has the dollar become very strong under Trump as he just claimed in this clip?

It is a silly question. We froze Iranian account - so it is not US money - can’t be used by us. Basically unfreezing it if they take certain steps.

Kinda like stealing Russia's wealth fund money.

Unfreezing "THIER" money nimrod, words matter

In the old days we called this "rationalization "

Big difference. The weaponizing of how we (and Europe) handle the dollar or Euro denominated assets owned by others within our spans of financial control is why our financial decline and Europe's is accelerating and our debt is becoming ever harder to finance.

Watching this moron try to justify terrible decision after terrible decision is comical.

This makes the $1.7B look like a rounding error.

So... let's unpack this. 1) We sponsored a revolution in 1953 and installed a murderous dictator. 2) We assisted Israel in assassinating their scientists and politicians. 3) They hate us for that. 4) Because they hate us, we bomb them and rob them. They're the bad guys?

WTH?

And of course they'll use that money for bridges and roads, *Wink, wink

Ya duh. These guys started the downfall of the US back when Biden did this to Russia

OMG

My God! has Trump finally pulled his head out of his ass.

Good advert for bitcoin. Cannot be seized, frozen or devalued by creating more.

Doouchy 🙄

That's the same thing he criticized Obama for doing

Who gives you these cockeyed explanations? Mr President, you have a fevered brain and need rest.

But we are stealing VZ oil? 🤣

he's just too irrational.......we talked about the stupid shit Biden use to say and do.........nothing has really changed...there is no seriousness here
