IRGC Targets US Midterms
Iran's Revolutionary Guard Urges American Public to Oppose Trump Policies in Midterms
Anonymous
Iran's Revolutionary Guard released an open letter urging Americans to vote against President Trump in upcoming midterm elections, claiming his military campaign in the Middle East has failed. AP News reported that Gen. Hossein Mohebbi, the Guard's spokesman, stated the only way to end the war is for Washington to admit defeat and leave the region. Meanwhile, Reuters quoted Trump as uncertain whether Iran will "give up yet," though he cast the country as performing "very poorly" in the conflict.
Iran's Direct Appeal to American Voters
The Revolutionary Guard's message represents an unusual direct intervention in U.S. politics. NY Daily News reported that Gen. Mohebbi urged Americans to "reconsider their leaders" and protest Trump's Middle East policies ahead of elections. The Guard framed the conflict as unwinnable for the U.S., calling for public pressure to force a policy reversal.
Trump Remains Uncertain About Iran's Surrender
President Trump acknowledged the conflict remains unresolved after seven months. Reuters reported Trump said he does not know if Iran will "give up yet," contradicting earlier claims of imminent victory. HuffPost reported Trump has admitted the war is still ongoing and that he has not won it, a notable shift from previous statements declaring success.
