During a campaign event, former President Donald Trump pulled no punches in addressing the very real threats posed by the Iranian regime. It appears that while the Biden administration is busy patting itself on the back for “diplomatic efforts,” Iran has taken a more direct approach—scholars call it “planning a hit.” Trump’s straightforward message was clear: if anyone thinks targeting former presidents is just a casual pastime, they might want to reconsider their life choices.
Specific threats against Trump were famously highlighted after he received a briefing from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. The Trump campaign made it clear that Iran is not just issuing threats the way a kid arms himself with a squirt gun on the playground; they are coordinating attacks to create chaos right here on American soil. There’s something deliciously ironic about Biden and his pals pretending to navigate the treacherous waters of international relations while Iran openly plots to take out a former U.S. president. The contrast couldn’t be starker; the Iranians are feeling emboldened by the perceived weakness emanating from the current administration.
This isn’t just about Trump’s safety; it’s about the safety of the American republic itself. The campaign’s communications stressed that Trump will not let threats, especially from a terror regime, deter him from fighting for the American people. Rather than cowering, as one might expect from a leader caught off-guard, Trump is gearing up to confront the issues head-on. The talking heads might spin tales about Trump’s bravado, but the reality is that they are afraid of a president who stands for American strength and values.
Trump Goes Scorched Earth on Iran While They Plot to Kill Him

In true 2024 fashion, Trump wasted no time taking to social media to voice his concerns, emphasizing that the U.S. Military is keeping a close eye on Iran’s antics, while he surrounds himself with an impressive arsenal of protection. The irony is delicious: a former president threatened with assassination while the current administration continues to roll out the red carpet for the very people behind the plot. This absurdity reaches a new high when considering that while the Secret Service safeguards Iranian delegates at the U.N., Trump is left potentially vulnerable. Who’s protecting whom here?
Meanwhile, one can’t help but ask why this pressing national security issue isn’t filling the news cycle. If the mainstream media were truly interested in “protecting democracy,” wouldn’t it be wise to discuss how a rogue regime is trying to put a hit out on a former U.S. president? Instead, the narrative seems more focused on the lavish lifestyles of Hollywood elites rather than actual threats to national security. The real “threat to democracy” isn’t a political figure like Trump; it’s the insanity of knowingly allowing Iranian officials to operate freely in the U.S. while state-sponsored attempts on American lives continue. Now, that is a story worth telling.
