Trump will block all the shipping of oil until terms are met. Take away their oil revenues and transfer them to the good ole USA. I call it a win/win!

How will it be enforced? If someone is dead set on going through, do they plan to shoot? If warning shots don’t work, do they plan to sink?

Block it, board it, detain the crew. Drop anchor

We gave them the option to open the straight on their own and they said no.
Now we get the say so in when the straight opens. It will open when we allow it to open and in the meantime good ole USA crude is being sold to everyone on the globe!
Art of The Deal my friends. Now do people understand what Trump meant yesterday when he said “either way we win”?

This isn’t amateur hour like the Biden and Obama administration.
No telling what the hell would’ve happened if those 2 posers tried to handle this problem.
God sent us Trump and has kept him alive amazingly to do this right for humanity

ALL international oil transfers?

I highly doubt that's possible to control all international oil transfers.

Now if you're trying to tell us the U.S. is going to block oil moving through the Gay of Hormuz, then ok. But that's not what your title or the body of your post says.

Are you being sarcastic??? This shitshow totally out of hand… your hypothetical makes no sense … neither Obama or Biden would be in this position… how do we know they would never be in this position?… we know this because they were never in this position

That move just might end our ability to have military bases abroad. I can’t imagine that the plan is as you suggest.

Can we get a source for this?

So if a tanker from a NATO country that paid the toll tries to cross, what are we going to do? Blow it up? China?

I tried to do a quick scan of some commentary in alt media and I noticed some people think China will start escorting tankers.

You envision a commercial tanker crew who is gonna ram a ship blocking their path? Or defend it from being boarded once stopped? Why would we blow it up?

This is true. They were in the position of ladling money on the Mullahs in the hopes that it would make them our friends. Instead, the Mullahs used the money to buy missiles and build nukes so they could continue to force radical Islam onto the rest of the world. Now Trump is cleaning up a problem that is much worse due to Biden and Obama.

No why would we need to attack the shipping?

Lloyds of London stopped the ships once, why wouldn't a threat stop them a second time?

They were in that position. Both of them....at the same time. And Iran flat out disregarded the terms.
