Trump: Iran is collapsing and is no longer the 'bully' in the Middle East

US President Donald Trump said that Iran is "collapsing," pointing out that it had been, as he described, the "bully in the Middle East" for decades, but is no longer so.

Trump added that the United States controls the Strait of Hormuz, joking that he believes it should be named the "Trump Strait," and affirming that his country is "winning the war with Iran."

On domestic affairs, Trump said that the past two years have been the most successful, pledging to make the United States "stronger, safer, richer, and freer," and noting that his administration has halted immigration, which he described as a "disaster threatening the country."

Trump emphasized that his policies are "logical and rational," considering that his party's victory in the previous elections "saved the country," and stressed his pursuit of American independence and dominance in the energy sector as well as supremacy in this field.
