        Do you remember why the strait was closed in the first place.

        This is like knocking over someone’s sand castle, getting your ass beat for it, they agree to stop if you rebuild the sand castle, you do and declare victory

            It is, the right position is he should have never started it the first place. Now he’ll scream victory and leave. Only costed millions, if not billions, of dollars and thousands of lives. Such success

                  Infrastructure repair around the gulf, hundred billion range, more if bombing continues.

                  A few trillion in economic damages around the world probably.

                  Reputational damages to the USA resulting in less trade, borrowing costs, etc. is up to a trillion per year in the coming years.
