U.S. President Donald Trump said the military could end its Iran offensive in two to three weeks and will shift responsibility for the Strait of Hormuz to countries that rely on it for oil and shipping as the White House announced a prime-time presidential address Wednesday evening on the war.
That looks like the "We broke it, you deal with it" concept, which is at odds with Secretary of State Colin Powell's "you break it you own it" concept.

The president is giving a Prime Time address on April Foll's night.
I wonder if anyone in his inner circle is aware of that juxtaposition.

The USS Bush heading across the pond and replacing the Ford may or may not be involved in any Persian Gulf ops. May be to have a CV in either Eastern Med or I.O. for the standard rotations...
