What Happened
President Trump threatened to wipe out Iranian civilization over Tehran's refusal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by April 7, 2026. His inflammatory language, including expletive-filled social media posts, prompted critics and former allies to question his mental health and call for his removal via the 25th Amendment. The White House dismissed speculation about nuclear weapons use. Analysts suggest Trump's maximalist negotiating style may not result in action.
