President Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., also posted the following:
This was posted on the Ayatollah's website. This is what you would expect from a terrorist regime. My father brought Iran to the brink of bankruptcy…then the Biden/Harris Administration swindled billions of dollars out of it and made the world a much more dangerous place. Enough!
The video is an animated depiction of a plot to assassinate Trump on a Palm Beach golf course, vowing revenge against the former president for ordering the deadly U.S. strike on General Qassem Soleimani, commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' Quds Force.

Iran is threatening my life. The entire US military is watching and waiting. Iran has already taken action and it didn't work. They will try again. It's not a good situation for anyone. I am surrounded by more soldiers, guns and weapons than I've ever seen. I'm grateful to Congress for unanimously approving significant funding for the Secret Service. There were zero votes against and it's completely bipartisan. It's good to see Republicans and Democrats united on something. An attack on a former president is a death wish for the attacker.
