Donald Trump has threatened that Iran will be “blown off the face of the earth” if it attacks US vessels trying to reopen a route through the strait of Hormuz.

Over 800 ships and roughly 20,000 crew members remain stranded in the region.

And that’s why we were all legitimately worried that he’d try to nuke Iran.
