No, clown — Trump didn’t ‘close’ Hormuz. Iran did. Trump ordered a blockade of Iranian ports to force Tehran to reopen the strait. A blockade is enforcement, not closure. Ships were stuck because Iran declared Hormuz shut in March 2026. Trump’s demand was that it be fully open within 48 hours. Headlines prove it: Politico, USA Today, TIME — all show Trump said the strait must remain open. So, stop twisting words. The strait has been closed since March 2026 by Iran, not by Trump. There is no date where Trump ‘opened’ it, because Tehran never complied.Cannonpointer » 7 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ So Trump closed it to ALL SHIP TRAFFIC in order to open it.

If you can stop dancing and answer the question,
HOW LONG HAS THE STRAIT BEEN OPEN? ON WHAT DATE DID TRUMP GET IT OPEN?
So, let's recap the Ignorance here...shall we.
