Trump: ‘We’re Going to Guard [Strait of Hormuz], and We’re Going to Get Paid for Guarding It’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: “We’re going to keep the strait. And we’ll probably run it. We’ll become the guardian of the strait. Maybe we’ll call it the guardian angel of the strait. And we should be reimbursed for that. When we do that, we’re going to be reimbursed. Because the other nations are very wealthy. They’re on our side. And we can’t be expected to do that for nothing. Unlike we had for many years. You know, we — we guarded the strait for 50 years, more, and we never got paid for it. They made all the money. And the United States was just, you know, not. They wouldn’t — it’s amazing. It’s — we — we never made — we guarded it for nothing. And now we’re going to guard it and we’re going to get paid for guarding it — a lot of money.”
