Trump shares image renaming Strait of Hormuz 'Trump Strait'

Donald Trump posted an image early Saturday on Truth Social showing the Strait of Hormuz labeled 'Trump Strait'. It is the first public sign of his thinking after Iran proposed a new deal and suggested it could help Trump ahead of the midterm elections. Commenters are treating the post as a provocative response to Tehran's offer in an already tense standoff over the strategic oil waterway.

Why now: Iran's new proposal and Trump's apparent interest in renaming the strategic waterway make the story timely and controversial.
