"Jimmy Kimmel focused on the ceasefire that resulted from Trump's warning that an entire civilization will die if Iran did not meet US demands to open the strait of Hormuz. He made a big threat and backed off like your dad threatening to pull the car over and turn it around."
"Kimmel continued by questioning the president's strategy in the Middle East: He seems to think that he can threaten to kill an entire civilization, then they're going to be totally cool with it the next day."
"On Wednesday, Trump named Vance as lead negotiator in ceasefire talks along with special envoy Steve Witkoff and special son-in-law Jared Kushner. What a trio, joked Kimmel. We'd be better off with Alvin, Simon and Theodore."
"He concluded: Really, the only way this conflict ends is if Iran gives Trump some kind of award, like the Hormuz."
