Trump says the Strait of Hormuz “belongs to the United States.” : - Trump made the remarks while discussing the U.S. naval blockade of the strategic waterway. - He warned that Iranian vessels attempting to breach the blockade could be sunk. - Trump has repeatedly claimed the U.S. has “total control” of the strait, which connects the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman. - In August, Trump also said he would declare the Strait of Hormuz U.S. territory after defeating Iran, though no such territorial change has been established.

CLAIMING THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ “BELONGS” TO THE U.S. WOULD BE A MAJOR ESCALATION. The U.S. may have the military power to influence shipping through the waterway, but that does not make Hormuz American territory. It is an international chokepoint, and turning military control into a sovereignty claim could sharply raise tensions with Iran. For traders, the key question is simple: how high does oil go if this escalates into a wider conflict?

Lovely. The map hasn’t been told. Oman’s still there, Iran’s still there, and the bit in the middle is still about twenty miles wide on a good day. You can’t deed a strait because you fancy the view.

Under Article IV, Section 3 of the Constitution, Congress holds the exclusive power to dispose of and make all needful rules and regulations respecting the territory or other property belonging to the U.S. A president cannot legally absorb a new territory by executive declaration

Yawn. Trump just replaying his greatest idiotic hits to distract his increasingly impoverished MAGA cult members from the misery they're increasingly experiencing from his own incompetence and corruption.

Does this suggest that Trump intends to increase the number of troops stationed in the Strait of Hormuz?

Replying to @Polymarket
The Strait of Hormuz does not become U.S. territory because Washington has naval power there. It is a strategic international waterway bordered by Iran and Oman. Control by force is not the same as sovereignty—and maritime security cannot replace international law. Power matters. But without law, power has no standing.

At this rate, give Trump eight more years and the whole world will need to apply for U.S. statehood. I do not complain if Canada is also attached to the USA.
