Trump says some people in Iran capable of leading the country

US President Donald Trump wants to see Iran’s leadership structure fully removed. The US administration is reportedly considering several potential candidates to lead Iran after a military operation, Trump told NBC News.

“We want them to have a good leader. We have some people who I think would do a good job,” Trump said, declining to name anyone.

Trump also said he is taking steps to make sure the people on his list make it through the war alive.

“We are watching them, yeah,” he said.

“We want to go in and clean out everything,” Trump said. “We don’t want someone who would rebuild over a 10-year period.”
