President Donald Trump issued a remarkable, profanity-laced warning to Iran, warning of severe military action should Tehran fail to make a deal or reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil thoroughfare. He said in a post to social media that Tuesday, “will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the F**kin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH!”.
