Trump says Iran 'nothing but trouble'
U.S. President Donald Trump says Iran is "nothing but trouble." But the president also says he thinks that the standoff with Tehran will eventually work out "very nicely."
Trump spoke to reporters at the White House on Friday as British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt was confirming that Iran had seized one British and one Liberian-flagged vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.
It was the latest escalation of tension in the strategic waterway that has become a flashpoint in tensions between Tehran and the West.
Trump says "Iran is showing their colors" with the seizures. He says "Iran is in big trouble right now" because its economy has been crippled by economic sanctions. He says it would be easy to straighten out the problem, or to make it worse.
