He posted an interminably long comment that said in part that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz. [&#8230;] I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"embed-twitter\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Blockading the Strait of Hormuz would be such an atrocity that Trump is threatening to do it himself. Atrocities are HIS thing.<\/p>\n<p>Also, he&#39;s threatening every ship that goes through the Strait. Even though he also says that Iran&#39;s Navy is &quot;gone,&quot; so how could it blockade anything? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LfPbPNepwk\">pic.twitter.com\/LfPbPNepwk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; News Corpse (@NewsCorpse) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\/status\/2043382449024139452?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 12, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>These remarks contain a bucket load of bullpucky. Let&#8217;s break them down, shall we? To begin with, it is a pitiful demonstration of Trump&#8217;s derangement that he is complaining about Iran blockading the Strait of Hormuz, and that his solution to that atrocity is blockade Hormuz himself. This is obviously a negotiating tactic that Trump learned from the movie Blazing Saddles&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Z_JOGmXpe5I?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Trump also made a point of threatening every ship that pays a toll to Iran to go through the Strait. That is a wide ranging threat that could impact much of the world including China, Russia, India, Iraq, Pakistan, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, and Greece, who have all already <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-independent.com\/news\/world\/middle-east\/iran-strait-of-hormuz-oil-countries-india-pakistan-philippines-b2952766.html\" target=\"_blank\">made agreements for safe passage<\/a><\/strong>. There is no evidence at the present time if those agreements included paying Iran. However, if Trump were to carry out his threat, it could expand the conflict to World War status by dragging countries like China and Russia into it. They would likely be very unhappy if the U.S. were to interdict their ships.<\/p>\n<p>Another problem with this threat is that there is no way to know whether any nation has paid a toll to Iran. Particularly if the tolls are paid with cryptocurrency. Neither Iran nor the countries currently traversing the Strait have disclosed whether any funds were transferred.<\/p>\n<p>There is also a glaring hypocrisy in Trump&#8217;s threat. After all, when tolls were previously brought up, he didn&#8217;t shy away from them. Rather, he simply said that he would <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/policy\/international\/5821343-trump-us-iran-ceasefire-deal-joint-venture-strait-of-hormuz\/\" target=\"_blank\">make sure that the U.S. got a cut<\/a><\/strong>. <em>&#8220;We\u2019re thinking of doing it as a joint venture,&#8221;<\/em> Trump said. And that <em>&#8220;It\u2019s a beautiful thing.&#8221;<\/em> What&#8217;s more, Trump still hasn&#8217;t explained how Iran could blockade the Strait since he insists that <em>&#8220;Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So in response to an Iranian blockade, Trump threatens to make his own blockade, also threatens the world&#8217;s shipping trades, forgets his joint toll offer, and ignores his prior claims that Iran had been totally defeated. Is that the behavior of a <em>&#8220;stable genius.&#8221;<\/em> Trump doesn&#8217;t belong in the Strait of Hormuz. He belongs in a straight jacket.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED STORIES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=69533\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Lies and Threatens CNN Over a Story He Falsely Claims Was Fake News From Nigeria About Iran<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=69499\" target=\"_blank\">Trump\u2019s INSANE Threats and War Crimes Against Iran are Dismissed by His Acting Attorney General<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=69493\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Admits Gross Failures Arming Protesters in Iran and to Slaughtering Defenseless Iranians<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse<br \/>\non <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/newscorpse.bsky.social\" target=\"_blank\">Bluesky<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@newscorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Threads<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>And check out my books on Amazon:<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aOYFpM\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\">Fox Nation vs. Reality:<br \/>\nThe Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Thanks so much for your support.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The peace talks between the United States and Iran that Donald Trump announced with such great fanfare, have already collapsed after only one day.
