The son of the brutal, deposed Shah of Iran is a fraud.

He, unlike me and many others, has never risked his life to help the cause of Iranian freedom.

As the repression intensifies, and the loss of innocent lives continue, we are monitoring the situation carefully.

Europe stands with the people of Iran in their legitimate fight for freedom.

Mr. President, you have already established your legacy as a man committed to peace and fighting evil forces.

There is a reason why people in Iran are renaming streets after your name. They know that you are totally opposite to Barack Obama or Joe Biden. They know that you're not going to throw them under the bus as they have had before.

Your words of solidarity with the Iranian people and your administration have had a tremendous positive effect. Let's hope that we can permanently seal this legacy by liberating Iran so that we and you can "Make Iran Great Again."

This is an opportunity that has presented itself. I'm prepared to return to Iran at the first possible opportunity. I'm already planning on that in the transition team. We hope only that the Iranian people this time will be victorious, and they will be, because I know that Iranians are prepared to die for this cause, and so am I.

It's not just for us as Iranians; it's for the whole world. Iranians are prepared to sacrifice not just for themselves, but to make sure that all the evil that has been brought by this regime from the time it came to power dissipates and we can finally breathe in an atmosphere of tranquility and good relationships with our neighbors, with the Israelis, with our Arab neighbors, and with the rest of the world.

I'm here to lead, but the choice is that of the people.

My job right now is to make sure that we achieve that transition, that as an honest arbiter, I'm a unifying force. That's why they are calling my name, because they have their trust in me.

It's a huge responsibility that I intend to carry out to the best of my ability.

The War Powers Act was passed in 1973 by a bunch of liberal Democrats.

It's a power grab by the congress against the commander in chief.

Every president has rejected the idea that Congress can substitute our judgment for theirs. This is an unconstitutional power grab.

To my colleagues, you're doing a lot of damage. You're emboldening our enemies. Stop it.

I don't want a military invasion of Iran or boots on the ground, but President Trump has chosen wisely to be with the protesters.

He's the first president since 1979 to pick the people over the Ayatollah.

President Trump says, "If you continue to kill your people, all hell will break out, all hell to pay."

That's as strong as when Reagan said, Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.
