A deal from Iran?

I would love it if Iran came back with an offer to open the strait:

"We'll open the strait if you send us Donald and Pete. We'll give them a fair trial for war crimes, and we'll even send a plane over to pick them up."

They have to want all the other losers in the cabinet too.

They have to take Bobbie Brainworm, Boxwine Pirro, Dr quack Oz, and A1 sauce McMahon for starters. It's all or none to open the strait.

It is not up to Iran to fix the problems in the US.
Our problems were created right here in the USA, and created by our own failures to build a better country in our own place.
We have to fix our problems.
