Donald Trump spent a portion of his weekend at his Mar-a-Lago resort, calling world leaders and begging for help in reopening the Strait of Hormuz as shipping traffic grinds to a halt due to his war on Iraq.

With oil prices exploding in the U.S., Trump — who had earlier blown offer an offer of help from the UK — spoke with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and pressed him to send warships to open the key oil shipment route, as well as reaching out to the leadership in China.

On MS NOW’s “Morning Joe,“ co-host Jonathan Lemire claimed observers get the impression that the president has painted himself into a corner with no way out, which has forced him into a humiliating position.

Lemire made his observation after retired Lieutenant General Mark Hertling said, “The president pleading with alliances and partners and in some cases, foes like China to help us out, as he did in in his posting over the weekend, just seems to me to be a reflection of what this administration has done to our allies and partners in terms of pushing them away, as opposed to building trust and pulling them together.”

“Truthfully, I believe we're in dire straits and there's more to come,” the military expert predicted.

“General, there's many observers who told me over the weekend they thought the president's post there had some desperation, trying to get allies to help out here, because he knows how difficult this situation now is,” Lemire contributed.

Whales Dump 200 Million XRP in Just 2 Weeks – Is XRP’s Price on the Verge of Collapse?

Whales offload 200 million XRP leaving market uncertainty behind. XRP faces potential collapse as whales drive major price shifts. Is XRP’s future in danger after massive sell-off by whales? XRP’s price has been under intense pressure recently as whales reportedly offloaded a staggering 200 million XRP over the past two weeks. This massive sell-off has raised alarms across the cryptocurrency community, as many wonder if the market is on the brink of collapse or just undergoing a temporary correction. According to crypto analyst Ali (@ali_charts), this surge in whale activity correlates directly with the price fluctuations seen in the past few weeks. XRP experienced a sharp spike in late July and early August, but the price quickly reversed as whales began to sell their holdings in large quantities. The increased volume during this period highlights the intensity of the sell-off, leaving many traders to question the future of XRP’s value.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI), currently sitting at 53.05, signals a neutral market stance, indicating that XRP could move in either direction. This leaves traders uncertain whether the XRP will break above its current resistance levels or continue to fall as more whales sell off their holdings.

This often points to a potential slowdown or pullback in price, further raising concerns about the future direction of the XRP. With the price currently around $3.02, many are questioning whether XRP can regain its footing or if it will continue to decline. The Aftermath of Whale Activity: Is XRP’s Future in Danger? Despite the large sell-off, XRP is not yet showing signs of total collapse. However, the market remains fragile, and the price is likely to remain volatile in the coming days. With whales continuing to influence price movements, many investors are watching closely to see if this trend will reverse or intensify. The coming weeks will be critical for determining whether XRP can stabilize or face further declines. The combination of whale offloading and technical indicators suggest that XRP’s price is at a crossroads. Traders and investors alike are waiting for clear signals to determine if the XRP will bounce back or continue its downward trajectory.
