Lindsey Graham says Trump will seize the Strait of Hormuz 'by force' if Iran deal collapses

South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham said Sunday that President Trump will take military control of the Strait of Hormuz if the U.S.-Iran framework agreement falls apart, escalating the administration's rhetoric on the same morning Vice President JD Vance landed in Switzerland for talks with Iranian negotiators.

"If this deal fails, Trump is going to take the strait over by force," Graham said on CBS's Face the Nation. "The United States will control the strait. We will charge a fee for those who go through."

The comments came hours after Trump floated the same idea on Truth Social, saying that if the framework collapses, the U.S. itself would impose tolls on shipping through the strait. There would be no tolls during the 60-day negotiating window, Trump said, and none after — unless the deal fell through, in which case the U.S. would charge for "services rendered as the Guardian Angel to the countries of the Middle East."

Iran showed no signs of backing down Sunday. The Revolutionary Guard navy still had not issued permission for any vessels to transit the strait, a military source told Iran's Fars news agency, a day after Tehran's initial closure announcement. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei warned Saturday that "the memorandum of understanding as a whole will be jeopardized" if Israel's strikes in Lebanon continue.

Because we've done so well so far.

Trump threatens to ‘take over’ Iran if Tehran closes the Strait of Hormuz in profanity filled tirade

Donald Trump threatened to "take over" Iran if the Strait of Hormuz was not immediately re-opened, the president told Fox News.

His latest round of threats came in response to news Saturday that Iran was once again closing the key waterway, just days after signing an agreement to ensure that traffic could flow through. Iran announced that it would close the Strait of Hormuz after Israeli forces continued an all-out assault into Lebanon aimed at dislodging Hezbollah militants.

Fox's Trey Yingst reported Sunday that in an early morning phone call, the U.S. president said he'd warned Iranian officials directly that "you close [the Strait of Hormuz] and you won't have a country."

"You won't even make it back to your f***** country," Yingst said the president claimed to have relayed to the Iranians, adding: "We'll take over the rest of the country."

The longer they hold out, the more pressure there will be on trump to fold and the better deal they can hold out for. With the midterms coming up, MAGA, GOP, Dems and everyone else will be screaming to settle.
