President Trump’s position on the war in Iran is showing he is increasingly out of touch with reality, especially as he claims he would declare the Strait of Hormuz a U.S. territory when the war is over. Former Congressman and VoteVets Senior Advisor Max Rose joins The Weekend to discuss.
AI:Critics are attacking President Trump's strategy regarding the ongoing conflict with Iran, specifically targeting his assertion that he will declare the Strait of Hormuz as U.S. territory once the regime is defeated. Detractors are characterizing this geopolitical stance as disconnected from reality and reckless, arguing that his focus on territorial expansion in the Middle East ignores more pressing domestic concerns like the economy and New York real estate issues.Open
Over the past week, President Trump more than once declared that the U.S. is in control of the Strait of Hormuz, a claim that Iran denies. On Friday, Trump made a much grander pronouncement, saying that the shipping chokepoint would "pretty soon" become "a territory of the United States," albeit in a tone that may have suggested a less than serious commitment. On Monday, Trump signed an executive order aimed at changing current practices for childhood vaccinations. In a warmly worded post to his Truth Social platform Wednesday, Trump announced that White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt will soon be leaving her post. #Trump #Iran #War #Hormuz #Vaccines #Health #WhiteHouse
