It has to annoy Trump, who is only a president, every time he identifies Ayatollah Khamenei as Iran’s “Supreme Leader.” It bugs me, so why wouldn’t it bug him? He runs the world, after all; if you don’t believe it, just ask him.
So here’s an idea to resolve our differences with Iran–Khamenei could agree to give up his title and acknowledge Trump as the “Supreme Leader” in exchange for an end to the war and guaranteed American protection in the future. Think of King John becoming the vassal of the Pope as a precedent.
Given Trump’s vanity, it could work.
