President Donald Trump on Wednesday boasted the U.S. has “total control” of the Strait of Hormuz, despite what the “FAKE NEWS” may report to the contrary, before praising Allah for the nation’s stranglehold on the critical shipping passage.
“I THINK WE WILL KEEP IT!” Trump posted on Truth Social. “Our Naval Blockade is being called, by everyone, ‘A WALL OF STEEL,’ and there is nothing Iran can do about it.”
The president repeated claims that Iran’s military had been decimated:
"They have no Navy, they have no Air Force, their remaining soldiers are unpaid, the IRGC is decimated and fleeing, and their 'Leadership' is uncertain, at best! They have No Money – Their country is 'shot.' All they have is FAKE NEWS and 300% INFLATION, and getting worse! Iran is all talk and no action, the Bully of the Middle East No Longer. Praise be to Allah!" President DONALD J. TRUMP
Trump’s remarks come a day after Iran’s theocratic leaders claimed the Strait of Hormuz was partially closed — news which sent the price of oil north of $80 per barrel. Iran is demanding the U.S. unfreeze Iranian funds in order to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, according to Reuters.
The two sides continue to discuss a deal to bring the war to an end, with Trump on Monday saying he loved an “interesting idea” Iran had floated about getting reparations for damages done during the conflict. Trump said he loved it so much he was going to use it himself and have Iran pay for the families of Americans and Iranian protesters it has killed over the last half-century.
He also didn’t seem too concerned about Iran threatening his life, even when it forced him to ditch Air Force One due to a credible assassination threat.
“I don’t worry about anything, to be honest,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday night. “Whatever it is — you know my attitude? Whatever.”

The “praise be” is just Trump jacking with the mullahs.
Don’t panic, ninny-crew.
Yes, but also the term “Allah” is the Arabic name for God and predates Islam.
I’m 82...I have the same philosophy...whatever...
You’re not a Boomer? Huh.
That is correct - and Trump means BOTH.
Yuppers !
.
“WhatEver!”
Head bob and
With Two Snaps UP!
Control over the Strait of Hormuz is disputed by the United States and Iran.
President Donald Trump claims the formidable US Navy maintains “total control” of the waterway through a US blockade, asserting that nothing passes through without US permission.
Conversely, Iran disputes this claim.
Iranian officials have maintained that the critical chokepoint will remain closed until the U.S. meets specific demands, which include ending military action and lifting regional blockades.
This was the game overall
Trump gambled on regime change in Iran. it didn’t work
The fall-back position: Iran can pretend to control the Strait and bluster all they want. So be it. Then no one gets to use it.
Iran’s commercial and import lifeline is now throttled.
Literally nobody is calling it that.
We won! Again!
Did your feelings get hurt by our President ?
Hope you are ok.
“Praise be to Allah!”
Pure genius trolling., 😅
Who will lose their minds first?
Media? liberals? mullahs?

Because Trump owns roughly 41% of the company’s shares, he stands to directly profit from the new recurring revenue stream. At five subscribers alone, the service would generate about $500,000 in monthly revenue, or $6 million annually.
Okay, so their quarterly losses will be $246 million instead of $248 million. As someone who put his entire life savings into DJT stock, I would love to see Trump Media become profitable, even it’s as a result of this shady insider trading, but I know it’s not going to help. The company needs to be managed better.

Yeah but they ruined it, just like the nazis ruined the swastika.
Yes, but also the term “Allah” is the Arabic name for God and predates Islam.

Ah, come on now, who do you think was whispering into Muhammad’s ear as he promulgated Islam and wrote the Quran. It certainly wasn’t the Triune God of forgiveness and love. You have one guess - this ‘god’ wears a pair of horns and maintains an infernal blast furnace. There cannot be words to describe how crazy Trump’s taunting must be making the IRGC.
Well if he meant God then he could have said God and anybody reading it in Arabic would read it as allah.
Ships keep getting attacked by Iran, which, in 47 speak, is total control
