The Magnificent Seven
President Trump told MS NOW on Thursday morning that Iran has “no idea who their leader is” at this moment — an assessment that experts on Iran have said is incorrect.
Said Trump: “They’re all messed up. They have no idea who their leader is. You know, we took out, really, three levels of leaders. And everybody that was even close behind him.”
He added: “So they have a hard time figuring out who the hell can speak for the country. They just don’t know.”
