‘That’s the World We Don’t Want’: Rubio on Iran Nuclear Risk

06 May 2026
‘That’s the World We Don’t Want’: Rubio on Iran Nuclear Risk Marco Rubio is warning Americans to think about Iran’s nuclear ambitions in a very direct way: what happens if Tehran gets the bomb and then holds the world’s energy supply hostage? Rubio argued that if Iran had a nuclear weapon and closed the Strait of Hormuz, gas prices could surge to “$8 or $9 a gallon.” His point was simple - a nuclear-armed Iran would not just be another hostile regime. It would have the power to threaten the world while daring others to act. “What are you going to do about it?” Rubio said, describing the kind of leverage Iran could claim if it had a nuclear weapon. #MarcoRubio #IranNuclearThreat #Iran #StraitOfHormuz #GasPrices #USPolitics #NationalSecurity #MiddleEast #AmericaFirst #TrumpAdministration #PoliticalDebate
