U.S. intelligence has circulated to President Trump and to a small circle around him that Iran's late supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, had misgivings about his son replacing him, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.

The analysis showed the elder Khamenei was wary of his son, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, ever taking power because he was perceived as not very bright, and was viewed as unqualified to be leader, according to sources.

The information gathered also indicated that the father was aware that his son had issues in his personal life, according to sources within the administration, the intelligence community and people close to the president.

In private conversations, Mr. Trump has told people close to him that he doesn't know that the information conveyed to him about Mojtaba Khamenei matters. He thinks Iran is essentially leaderless right now, with the younger Khamenei possibly dead.

5. It could be that Orange Julius Caesar is simply

projecting again, about his own sons.

2. It seems to me

that the fact that the younger Khamenei has had many of his family members killed by the US will hardly improve his disposition towards the US.

3. LOL Obvious propaganda

"according to sources within the administration, the intelligence community and people close to the president."

6. Exactly. Tragic that we can't trust this administration. Tragic that much of MSM does. nt

4. Based on this

“he was perceived as not very bright, and was viewed as unqualified to be leader”….. then he and Trump should have a conversation of equals.

8. Sounds like it was penned someone who knew how to get an "A" on their paper

Just throw in the phrase "not very bright", which is clearly one of the manbaby's favorite expressions, and you're golden.

Obviously the son could in fact be a moron, but there's no way to judge the factuality of literally anything puked out by anyone in this regime.

10. Only if 1+10.

7. No differences

Our " leader " has a diminished IQ, personal problems, no leadership abilities yet MAGATS find him to be the anointed one and worship his dumb ass.
