Trump Claims ‘Total Control’ Over Strait of Hormuz

“President Trump claimed Wednesday that the U.S. has complete control of the Strait of Hormuz, one day after Energy Secretary Chris Wright confirmed increasing oil exports from the crucial waterway as Iran’s economy continues to free fall,” the New York Post reports.

Said Trump: “The USA has total control over the Strait of Hormuz. I THINK WE WILL KEEP IT!’ Our Naval Blockade is being called, by everyone, ‘A WALL OF STEEL,’ and there is nothing Iran can do about it.”
