US President Donald Trump has told the "crazy bastards" in Iran to open the "fuckin' Strait" of Hormuz or face "hell" in an expletive-laden Truth Social rant.

He signed off the post with "Praise be to Allah".

The whole world can see this and form a view of Donald Trump and the USA. He's really a textbook case of an American having no clue how they look to everyone else. This isn't the look of a strong leader who's in control, and taunting your enemy by making fun of their religion will not win you any sympathy or any advantage. Trump has never looked so desperate.
