Donald Trump has insisted Iran must “open up the Strait of Trump” and complained about not winning the Nobel Peace Prize in a meandering speech at the Future Investment Initiative Institute summit in Miami, Florida.

    “We’re negotiating now, and it’d be great if we could do something, but they have to open it up. They have to open up the Strait of Trump — I mean, Hormuz. Excuse me, I’m so sorry, such a terrible mistake,” Trump said.

    “The fake news will say he accidentally said — there’s no accidents with me, not too many. If there were, we’d have a major story,” he added.

    “If I don’t get the Nobel Prize for peace, nobody will ever get it. I didn’t get it. I’m not surprised. The person that got it was shocked — she’s a wonderful woman too, by the way,” he said.

    This is completely incongruent with reality. Trump has lived his hyper-privileged life speaking the things he wants into existence, and that privilege has now reached its limit.

    These are not the words of a sane person.
