Those nutjobs won't be happy until they get into a real shooting war with the Yoo Ess of Ay.

Great. Now Trump will affirm our right to patrol the Gulf. And that will make patrolling the Gulf the WORST THING IN THE WORLD! In fact, having a Navy at all is racist, isn't it?

Thing is, Iran's screaming beards are used to having POTUS turn a blind eye - or even reward - their aggressive actions. If they do something extreme (like restarting the so-called "tanker war" in the 80's) by shooting Silkworm missiles or whatever else China/Russia/Whoever has been selling them lately at Gulf shipping, they may be rather shocked at the US response with Trump in the White House.
