Nah, rename that one.
“Iran takes Trump’s Strait, demands repayment.”
“Trump’s Strait under fire”
“America vows to destroy blockage of Trump’s Strait”
“Trump fails to secure Strait
Someone can probably do better than me here, but I feel the name has potential for ridicule
"Oil unable to navigate Trump's Strait"
"Ships lost trying to cross Trump's Strait"
I think if I said this enough times I would likely say "Trump's taint", it kinda ryhmes
It’s a bottleneck.
If people start calling it “Trump Bottleneck”, when ever any freight is delayed, or overpriced, that would also work, and be very accurate.
