‘No accidents with me’: Trump jokingly calls Hormuz ‘Strait of Trump’

At the start of remarks at a Miami event sponsored by the Saudi Arabia sovereign wealth fund, US President Donald Trump assures the audience that the US military is achieving it’s military objectives in its four-week old war against Iran.

He also jokingly refers to the Strait of Hormuz by another name.

“They have to open up the Strait of Trump. I mean, Hormuz,” Trump says. He adds sarcastically, “Excuse me … I’m so sorry — such a terrible mistake.”

“The fake news will say he accidentally said (Strait of Trump),” he adds. “No, there’s no accidents with me. Not too many.”

Touting the successes of US military action in Venezuela and Iran, Trump also says that “Cuba is next.”
