Trump can’t secure a dinner, yet claims he wants to secure the Strait of Hormuz

Donald Trump has proven to the world that he has no chance of securing the Strait of Hormuz after his team failed to secure a dinner event.

The annual White House Correspondents’ dinner took place at the Washington Hilton on April 25. However, it did not go as planned.

The Secret Service had to rush Donald Trump and other ‘important’ people out of the dinner. This was after an armed man “charged a US Secret Service checkpoint”. Security staff tackled him to the ground and handcuffed him.

The US Attorney General has since stated that the shooter was targeting ‘Trump administration officials’.

I wonder if Trump and his pals have thought about being slightly less wanker-y?

Maybe then fewer people would want to kill them.

Trump — lack of security

On social media, multiple journalists have highlighted the lack of security at the building’s entrance.

Attendees were able to join the ‘pre-party’ — where multiple ballrooms were packed with guests without going through any security.

It was only when they moved into the main ballroom that guests had to pass through metal detectors, empty their pockets, and get a pat-down.

Even Fox News correspondents said security was “lacking severely”. 

So, how is a man, or his administration, who cannot even secure a dinner event at a hotel, supposed to secure the Strait of Hormuz?

Trump couldn’t even secure the bottles of champagne that journalists and influencers proceeded to steal.

Already, conspiracy theories are flying around social media. From Karoline Leavitt saying “there will be shots fired” before the event, to the smirks of US officials and staff after the event, and Kash Patel, the Director of the FBI, just chilling while people hide under tables.

Of course, none of this proves anything. On the contrary, it just goes to show the absolute absurdity that surrounds the whole Trump administration.

But one thing is clear, though: Trump will find a way to milk the not-so-near shooting as an excuse to wage war somewhere. Whether it’s through more damaging US policies, shutting down protests and free speech, or in West Asia. He will make sure someone, somewhere, suffers because of his team’s incompetence.

How can the world sit and watch as an orange muppet pretends to win the illegal war against Iran and to ‘secure’ the Strait of Hormuz when he and his team cannot even safely attend an annual dinner event?
