Trump Proposes Renaming Strait of Hormuz | Nigeria News

Trump’s latest geopolitical stunt? Renaming the Strait of Hormuz to “Trump Strait,” complete with a White House map, as tensions with Iran escalate and U.S. forces strike near the vital oil chokepoint. This follows his pattern of renaming bodies of water — Lake Ontario is now “Lake America,” and the Gulf of Mexico is “Gulf of America” — sparking global mockery. Meanwhile, Iran retaliates after U.S. strikes allegedly targeting Iranian minelaying, claiming civilian casualties at a wedding. Oil prices soar as conflict rages, with Trump vowing more strikes — though he insists any new campaign won’t last long. Amid all this, the U.S. Mint drops one-dollar coins featuring Trump’s face to mark 250 years of American independence.
