Donald Trump Shares New Map Showing The ‘Strait Of Trump’ And It Doesn’t Chart Well

Donald Trump faced fresh mockery after doubling down on the idea of renaming the Strait of Hormuz after himself.

Trump, who has a penchant for putting his name on buildings and more, reshared what appeared to be an AI-generated map on his Truth Social platform that labeled the narrow channel off Iran’s coast as the “Strait of Trump.”

The strategic waterway carries roughly a fifth of the world’s oil supply and its blockade amid Trump’s war on Iran has led oil prices to spike.

“Crude oil is now at $120/barrel and climbing. Americans are paying higher and higher prices,” the press office of the governor, who’s seen as a likely 2028 presidential candidate, wrote on X, before adding: “Why won’t President Trump open the Strait of Trump!?”

Other critics slammed the idea, with some calling for the channel to be renamed the “Strait of Epstein,” in reference to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a onetime close associate of the president.
