According to a ChainCatcher newsflash, U.S. President Donald Trump said in a new post that the United States has already gained complete control of the Strait of Hormuz and will continue to hold that control. He said the U.S. maritime blockade is known by everyone as an "iron wall" and argued that Iran is unable to respond. Trump also claimed Iran has no navy, no air force, and that its remaining soldiers have not been paid. In the same post, he said the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has been heavily damaged and is in retreat. He described Iran’s leadership as, at best, uncertain. Trump further said Iran has no money and that the country has been left in tatters. He added that Iran is left with what he called fake news and 300% inflation, which he said is getting worse. He ended the post by saying Iran now only talks and is no longer the bully of the Middle East.
