Donald Trump Jr. says Iran’s interference is ‘perhaps’ his father’s best endorsement – Washington Examiner
Donald Trump Jr. suggested that Iran’s recent interference in the 2024 U.S. presidential election might inadvertently serve as a strong endorsement for his father’s campaign. He linked Iran’s actions to their disapproval of Donald Trump, stating that their opposition indicates his father’s capability to strengthen America, which threatens Iran’s global ambitions. Speaking on Fox News, Trump Jr. expressed uncertainty about whether Iran’s actions were detrimental or the “greatest endorsement” for his father, emphasizing that adversaries like Iran and Russia do not want Trump to succeed. Additionally, Trump Jr. praised Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, whom he encouraged his father to select as a running mate, commending Vance’s performance in the campaign and looking forward to future debates.
Donald Trump Jr. says Iran’s interference is ‘perhaps’ his father’s best endorsement
Donald Trump Jr. contended Iran may be unintentionally helping his father’s 2024 presidential bid, as the country’s recent interference in the election could be looked at as an endorsement for his father.
Former President Donald Trump’s campaign was hacked by Iranian hackers over the summer, with the FBI stating the information was passed to President Joe Biden’s team in an attempt to interfere with the 2024 election. The former president’s son deemed Iran “the world’s leading state sponsor of terror,” and claimed the country was “colluding” with the Biden-Harris administration in attempting to share campaign information.
“Think about that, I can’t tell if it’s terrible or if it’s perhaps the greatest endorsement of my father’s campaign,” Trump said on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo. “Iran does not want him to be president. Russia does not want him to be president. Our enemies do not want my father to be president ’cause they understand that bringing back strength and resolve to America is really bad for their global ambitions. I can’t think of a better endorsement, Maria.”
Trump Jr. also addressed the vice presidential debate between Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) and Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), saying he has felt “totally vindicated” in encouraging his father to select the Ohio senator as his running mate. He praised Vance’s performance on the 2024 campaign trail, and predicted it will be “a lot of fun” to see him debate Walz.
The vice presidential debate will be held on Tuesday night in New York City, hosted by CBS News.
Trump Jr. also dismissed polling data indicating the 2024 election between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris will be close, suggesting most of them are “nonsense.” He then called for Trump supporters to vote early rather than wait until Election Day.
The most recent polling data from the Meredith Poll found that Harris and Trump are tied at 48%. The data sampled 802 likely voters from Sept. 17-20, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5%.
Early voting is already underway in states such as Virginia, South Dakota, and Mississippi, and will further expand to other states come October.
