    There are always power struggles. There will be a power struggle when Trump dies. That doesn’t mean they couldn’t easily replace him with some other useful idiot.

        Nonsense. Iran has had multiple presidents who never became Mullahs, let alone the Ayatollah. There have only been two Ayatollahs. The current one was president, but that was before Iran rewrote its constitution. Note that Ahmadinejad is not the Ayatollah today.
