Trump claims record US oil transit through Strait of Hormuz; Iran 'doing very poorly'

President Trump asserted that the US moved more oil through the Strait of Hormuz than ever before, framing it as a sign of pressure on Iran, which he said is 'doing very poorly' and will eventually capitulate. The claim is unverified and lacks specific data, and it appears to be rhetorical posturing rather than a confirmed operational milestone. The statement signals continued US pressure on Iran but does not indicate a new policy shift or imminent escalation.
