Jenkins: Democrats are already saying that this is taco—-Trump always chickens out. Let me give you another acronym—Nacho—never avoids confronting hard obstacles.

This morning, I asked President Trump if he’s okay with the Iranians charging a toll for all ships that go through the Strait of Hormuz, he told me there may be a Joint US-Iran venture to charge tolls: “We’re thinking of doing it as a joint venture.

Yes, it's good. The war is bad. So, the ceasefire is good. Pretty simple. Trump's out of the escalation trap, for now, thank God. And if the ceasefire is going to hold and lead to a peace deal it may involve a very gradual opening of the Strait and then an Iranian toll system.
