A senior Iranian leader and confidant of the Islamic Republic’s president is threatening to “depose” President Donald Trump if he continues his policy of confronting Iran and its terror proxy groups in the Middle East, according to recent comments that come as Iranian military leaders threaten missile strikes on U.S. forces and bases in the region.

Mostafa Tajzadeh, a leading Iranian politician and ally to President Hassan Rouhani, claimed this week that the Trump administration is too “fragile” to confront Iran and that if U.S. officials do “anything unwise against Iran,” the Islamic Republic will see that Trump is “deposed,” according to Farsi-language comments independently translated for the Washington Free Beacon. […]

Iran has chosen to confront the Trump administration, both militarily and diplomatically, as the U.S. levels new sanctions and punitive measures against Tehran for its continued use of illicit ballistic missiles and funding of terrorism.

Tajzadeh appeared to up the stakes in a tweet endorsing efforts to see Trump thrown out of office.

“Trump’s presidency is so fragile that if he does anything unwise against Iran, if we react smartly, instead of the Islamic Republic of Iran, it is Trump who will be deposed,” the Iranian official tweeted, according to a translation of his remarks. …

Iran, the DNC, and other various and sundry persons and entities hostile to the USA. None of them seem to like The Donald very much.

Couldn’t help noticing, the little whiner didn’t mention how he thinks he’ll do this.

Many otherwise innocent Iranians who suffer under the thumb of the Ayatollah will die if the carry any overt military acts out against the US.

It may take an invasion of Iran to end this menace forever.

Irans plenty angry that Trump’s ME Tour elevated the Sauds back to their position of authority in the ME...... Where as Obama was favoring Iran as the big man on campus. So Iran’s really really angry.....especially since 50 plus Muslim leaders signed up with the Sauds during Trumps visit. That trip really did turn the ME tide.

Iran slugged it out for years against Iraq. I don’t think it can succeed in deposing President Trump by defeating the Obama-weakened US military.

Hey Iran, is this what they mean when they say you’re clutching at pearls? Now run along and take your marbles with you.

And I’ve wanted revenge ever since!

This belligerency should concern Putin.

Russia finds Iran useful for certain purposes. Accordingly, Russia will go along with a certain amount of foolishness from that country. But, there’s a limit to this. Especially since we are willing to accommodate Russia’s interests in the region, such as having a port in the Mediterranean.
