What a brilliant choice of words!

Iran is "choking like a stuffed pig" under a U.S. naval blockade, according to President Donald Trump, who vowed to keep the pressure in place until Tehran agrees to a nuclear deal addressing American concerns.

In a phone interview with Axios on Wednesday, Trump said the blockade remains more effective than military strikes and rejected an Iranian proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz before resuming nuclear negotiations.

"The blockade is somewhat more effective than the bombing. They are choking like a stuffed pig. And it is going to be worse for them. They can't have a nuclear weapon," Trump said.
The standoff centers on Iran's request to first lift the blockade and restore maritime traffic through the critical oil chokepoint, with talks on its nuclear program to follow later.

Trump dismissed that sequencing, signaling the U.S. will maintain leverage until broader concessions are made.

"They want to settle. They don't want me to keep the blockade. I don't want to [lift the blockade], because I don't want them to have a nuclear weapon," he said.

Behind the scenes, U.S. Central Command has prepared plans for a "short and powerful" wave of strikes targeting Iranian infrastructure if negotiations remain stalled, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

The strategy would aim to push Tehran back to the negotiating table under increased pressure.

Trump, however, has not authorized military action as of Tuesday night and declined to discuss potential plans in detail.

Earlier on Wednesday, he posted an AI-generated image of himself holding a gun with the caption "NO MORE MR. NICE GUY," on his Truth Social page, underscoring his tougher stance.

Why does our leader set himself up for embarrassment? He is foolish.

Nothing compares to the bumbling idiot who tripped, and stuttered his way through speeches, and fell off bikes. Or the other idiot, who went on an apology tour for our military's decisions which won us WWII. Gave Billions of dollars to terrorist to kill Americans . Sit this one out my man, you’re a fool.

As long as the infrastructure and the ability to produce gasoline, jet fuel, missile propellant still exists, then Iran isn't choking.

I've heard of bleeding like a stuck pig.


If a pig is stuffed, wouldn't it be dead and not choking at all? It seems like a mixed metaphor that got unmixed then remixed again.

Roads, highways, overpass, and bridges are needed to transport weapons, fuel, and food. Desalination plants provide fresh water to drink, and cool pressure vessels. Gasoline and Diesel refining allows transported weapons systems, and small marine craft to operate. Missile propellant and Jet A allow Iran to fire long range missiles and fuel nuisance drones.

I really like the blockade better. Trump can claim that he closed the strait instead of Iran saying they have it closed and making it seem like Iran is winning.

Not just sit. It murders their oil wells. You can't just turn it off and turn it back on.

This blockade fell into our laps instead. It's working a lot better and it doesn't result in the entire country going dark.
