Trump says he must be involved in picking Iran's next leader

President Trump told Axios in an interview Thursday that he needs to be personally involved in selecting Iran's next leader — just as he was in Venezuela.

Trump acknowledged that Mojtaba Khamenei, son of assassinated supreme leader Ali Khamenei, is the most likely successor — while making clear he finds that outcome unacceptable.

23. I don't say this lightly

I hope the world order can survive the next 3 years. Everything Trump touches dies and he wants his hands in everything. He’s gonna be attacking countries and overthrowing governments for the next 3 years on top of trade wars and destroying alliances.
