President Donald Trump declared once again on Wednesday that the U.S. military had “total control” over the Strait of Hormuz and floated the possibility the United States could retain control of the key waterway.

“The U.S.A. has total control over the Strait of Hormuz,” he said on Truth Social on Wednesday morning. “I THINK WE WILL KEEP IT! Our Naval Blockade is being called, by everyone, ‘A WALL OF STEEL,’ and there is nothing Iran can do about it.”
