SECRETARY RUBIO: The President has stepped up to answer the call and he’s directed the U.S. military to guide these stranded ships to safety. This is the first step to opening up the Strait and bringing Iran’s act of economic arson to a close. pic.twitter.com/425Iw84Q7Y

.@SecRubio on Iran: "They really shouldn’t test the will of the United States, at least not under President Donald Trump. He has proven, time and again, that he will back up what he says — and if they test him, ultimately, they will lose." pic.twitter.com/Xoopp8koR2

.@POTUS: "Other presidents should have done this. 47 years, they've been toying with these stupid people... This should have been done by Obama. He went the other way. He was giving them cash... They screwed Obama, ok? That's not the way we play. We do it the old fashioned way." pic.twitter.com/6O5DdI61PU
