Roberto Schmidt/Getty ImagesPresident Donald Trump issued a dramatic new threat to Iran on Monday as the ceasefire appeared to be collapsing over shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. The president, 79, spoke with Fox News, where he warned Iran would be “blown off the face of the earth” if they tried to target U.S. ships in the area. That’s according to the network’s chief foreign correspondent, Trey Yingst, who spoke to Trump for 20 minutes.
