How is Iran’s economy doing?

Their economy has been sanctioned to death for decades. They’ll be fine. 

Now the American economy? That’s a different story.

Their economy depended on oil revenue. Now there is now oil revenue. So again. How is their economy doing :)

Again, you seem to think is the only time their oil revenue has been sanctioned. It has not been. 

Their economy is struggling, but they’re still managing to get their oil out. And the regime is stronger than ever. 

Now, how is the American economy doing? Why is Trump constantly begging them to open the strait. Why is he constantly threatening and then backing off of his threats?

Could it be because Iran has him by the balls, and the US economy is in major decline?

No, they dont get any oil out. Thats the point.

Oil can only be efficiently exported by sea or by pipeline. Both options dont exist for iran. Thats why their people go hungry and the currency is collapsing

And the US economy is doing fine. Growth is okay, inflation and the stock market too. Can it be better. Of course. But its not catasophic
