“I could take out Iran in one day,” Trump told Fox News show “Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo.”

“I could have their entire energy everything, every one of their plants, their electric generating plants, which is a big deal.”

Meanwhile, – Iran’s Revolutionary Guards on Sunday said Iranian security forces had the Strait of Hormuz key shipping bottleneck under full control, warning that enemies would be trapped in its “deadly vortex” in case of any miscalculation.

“All traffic… is under the full control of the armed forces,” the Guards naval command said in a Persian language post on X after Trump ordered a US naval blockade of the Strait.
