CNN Host Humiliates Trump With Damning Reality Check

CNN star Erin Burnett offered some irrefutable evidence that despite President Donald Trump's claims his administration does not have "total control" of the Strait of Hormuz. Trump statement in the Oval Office: "We have total control of the strait." Burnett (CNN's OutFront): "if you have total control of the strait, other countries aren't bombing ships in the strait. That's just to state the obvious"; "They are still in control of the Strait of Hormuz. They can shut it down whenever they want, despite what Trump just claimed." She said Tehran's strike spoke "louder than any words" and called the MOU's status "shaky and undefined." Same-day drone-strike development (per the Wall Street Journal): Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps attacked a cargo ship in the strait Thursday, the first such attack since the two sides agreed last week to pursue a peace deal; the vessel was hit by a drone hours after Iran's navy "warned ships to only follow routes the regime had sanctioned." Trump claimed on Wednesday that Iran was honoring its side of the deal to keep the Strait of Hormuz.
