Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) argued Iran’s interference in the 2024 presidential election is due to its desire to remove former President Donald Trump from the race.

Cotton, a frequent critic of the Biden-Harris administration, explained that Iran “clearly” favors Vice President Kamala Harris because the country will be able to “walk all over” her in the same way it has with President Joe Biden. He added that Iran and its leadership do not want Trump back in power because the former president will “finish the job” in stopping Iran from spreading further chaos in the Middle East.
