"We haven't made any decision on that. We're nowhere near it. The president also aired out his feelings on Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed in joint U.S.-Israel airstrikes in Iran."
"Not going to tell you. Not going to tell you. I'm not happy with him. Trump told Post reporter Steven Nelson when asked about Khamenei's son, expressing his dissatisfaction with Iran's new leadership."
"They are wasting their time. Khamenei's son is a lightweight. I have to be involved in the appointment, like with Delcy [Rodriguez] in Venezuela. Trump insisted the U.S. should shape Iran's political future and personally select its leadership."
President Trump addressed the possibility of U.S. ground forces in Iran following Operation Epic Fury, clarifying that no such decision has been made and the military is nowhere near that stage. He expressed strong disapproval of Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of the deceased Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Trump previously stated he would not accept Mojtaba as Iran's ruler and insisted the United States should influence Iran's political future, claiming he should personally select the country's leadership. He characterized Khamenei's son as a lightweight and compared his desired involvement to his role in Venezuelan political appointments.
