Trump said that today in an Axios interview: "I have to be involved in the appointment" for Iran's next leader (calling Khamenei's son a "lightweight" & unacceptable, comparing to Venezuela).
Possible? No—the US can't appoint Iran's Supreme Leader (that's their Assembly of Experts). But Trump means he'll use sanctions/strikes to veto anyone continuing the old regime & push for his preferred outcome. Influence via pressure, not direct selection.
