Chuck Schumer: We are paying the price for Trump's failure in war with Iran

Chuck Schumer, the Democratic minority leader in the U.S. Senate, has criticized former U.S. President Donald Trump’s approach toward Iran, calling it a total failure and a recipe for disaster. At the same time, Alexei Pushkov, chairman of the Information Policy Committee of the Russian Federation Council, believes that the United States will not win a war with Iran. In contrast, Donald Trump, in a post on the Truth Social platform, claimed that the United States is winning the war with Iran and that the Strait of Hormuz is open to all ships except those from Iran.

• Chuck Schumer said that the American people are paying the price for Donald Trump’s complete failure in Iran and that U.S. military forces are at risk.
• Schumer said Donald Trump’s approach toward Iran is not a strategy, describing it as a recipe for a complete disaster.
• According to Schumer, gasoline prices have remained high, casualties have risen, and costs have gone up.
• An American media outlet, criticizing the U.S. government, said the surge in gasoline prices and Donald Trump’s declining economic performance are the consequences of the ill-considered decision to enter a war with Iran.
• Alexei Pushkov believes that, despite Donald Trump’s wishes, the United States will not win a war with Iran.
• Pushkov said Donald Trump claims the United States will keep the Strait of Hormuz open to every ship and demand 20 percent compensation, which was previously called piracy.
• Donald Trump said in a post on the Truth Social platform on Tuesday, July 14, that the United States is “winning” the war with Iran.
• Trump also said that the days when Iran was killing hundreds of thousands of people, including 52,000 protesters, are over.
• In his post, Donald Trump sent “special greetings” to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Cain, and CENTCOM Commander Brad Cooper.
• According to Donald Trump, thanks to the efforts of the U.S. military, the Strait of Hormuz is open to all ships except those from Iran.
• Donald Trump described the closure of the strait to Iran as being “because of its false, violent, and malicious leadership.”
• Donald Trump announced the reimposition of a naval blockade on Iran, saying it would apply only to ships traveling to and from Iranian ports or carrying any cargo related to Iran.
• Donald Trump had previously said that the United States would charge a 20 percent levy on passing ships to cover the cost of securing the Strait of Hormuz, but in his new post he said he was changing that decision, writing that the 20 percent fee for reimbursement to the United States would be replaced by trade and investment agreements that Gulf countries would make in the United States..
