US President Donald Trump on Friday evening (local time) jokingly referred to the strategic Strait of Hormuz as the “Strait of Trump", while delivering remarks at a Miami event sponsored by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund.
“We’re negotiating now, and it would be great if we could do something, but they have to open it up. They have to open up the Strait of Trump, I mean, Hormuz," he said, drawing laughter from the audience. “Excuse me, I’m so sorry. Such a terrible mistake," he said sarcastically.
“The fake news will say he accidentally said Strait of Trump. No, there’s no accidents with me. Not too many," he added.
