Trump is an idiot. He doesn't even know the name of one of the key places in his insane war on Iran.

It is the Strait of Hormuz not the Hormuz Strait.

The president posted, “Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe.”

1. He went on an 'excursion' there...

What a loser…begging for help now.

2. But many countries are now calling him and want to send war ships to the Hormuz Strait.

"Many ⁠Countries, especially those who are affected ​by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz ​Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep ​the Strait open and safe," Trump ​wrote in a post on Truth Social.

3. He knows to the penny how much he will make stealing Iran oil, gold, cash, land.

He and Kushner have that all figured out to the last penny and detail.

The rest of it is totally unimportant to him.

4. May as well do some grammar policing also,

"Many countries "that" are affected," not "who" are affected.

Krasnov is bluffing, he wants to get other countries involved so that he can quietly surrender and then blame those countries when things go south. Bibi used Krasnov bigly.

Releasing oil reserves is only a temporary fix, the big problem is Hormuz being shut down and several ME countries cutting back on oil production.

Someone explain to me why when Russia invaded Ukraine the price of gas in the US jumped to 5 dollars a gallon but when we have a war in the ME gas is at 3.64 a gallon?

I seriously doubt that Krasnov will hit the oil depot on Kharg Island, he is in a real bind. Yes it is the main oil port for Iran and blowing it up would cripple Iran, but then the consequences would be that Iranians would have nothing left to lose and blowing up Kharg Island will also raise the price of crude and gasoline worldwide. Blowing up the oil depot would turn every Iranian against the United States.

6. He needs to stop with the use of capital letters

where they don’t belong. Everything he writes is irritating and embarrassing.

5. Don't worry. He will just sign an EO renaming it.

He is never wrong

7. Trump aides aware of president's repeated gaffe - but are 'afraid to correct him': report

trump is too senile/stupid to know the difference between “excursion” and “incursion." trump's aides know the difference but they do NOT dare correct trump. Every time that trump uses the term "excursion" instead of incursion, I laugh. Again, trump is too senile to sue the right term and his aides are too scared to correct trump.

Trump aides aware of president’s repeated gaffe – but are ‘afraid to correct him’: report

President Donald Trump has been ridiculed in recent days for repeatedly referring to his administration’s military siege on Iran as an “excursion,” a potential mix-up with the word “incursion,” but according to a new report from Zeteo, his aides are well aware of the blunder but refuse to correct him out of fear.

“I’m not telling him,” a Trump administration official told Zeteo on Friday, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

The word “excursion,” as explained by MS NOW’s Jonathan Lemire on Friday, generally refers to “a short, organized pleasure trip, à la snorkeling,” whereas an “incursion” is a “sudden, often hostile entrance or invasion into a territory or place,” a far more appropriate term to describe the Trump administration’s operation in Iran.

And yet, despite the obvious blunder, Trump officials told Zeteo that correcting the president would be “a fool’s errand,” and that “doing so would likely get them yelled at,” the outlet reported.

“We say ‘incursion,’ the boss says ‘excursion.’ It’s not a big deal,” a second Trump official told Zeteo, also speaking on the condition of anonymity.

8. I'm surprised he hasn't called it the Strait of America yet

Just a matter of time.
