Former President Donald Trump addressed Iran’s plots to assassinate him during remarks in battleground-state North Carolina on Wednesday, saying it was "strange" how the Iranian president received such a large security detail when visiting the United Nations this week.
Trump was speaking about jobs in Mint Hill, just outside Charlotte, when he mentioned the potential Iranian plot to assassinate him.
"Meanwhile, we have the president of Iran in our country this week, we have large security forces guarding him, and yet they’re threatening our former president and the leading candidate to become the next president—certainly a strange set of circumstances," Trump said.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian addressed the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on Tuesday.
Tehran’s potential assassination plot was detailed in FBI documents that Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, released earlier this month, showing other potential targets included President Biden, Nikki Haley, along with other "politicians, military people or bureaucrats."

The USA is becoming a complete Banana Republic with thanks to the media propaganda machines.

The democrats own Washington DC including FBI, SS, and DOJ. They also own the so-called mainstream media. The other reason this story is crickets in the news - Republicans have zero backbone! We should fix our republicans before the uphill battle in DC establishments.
We don’t want war with any country.
But if you want war with the United States of American you better believe someone else will be raising your sons and daughters.
