In January 2026, US Senator Lindsey Graham shared a photo of President Donald Trump holding a hat that read "Make Iran Great Again," raising concerns about potential conflict with Iran. The photo was taken aboard Air Force One as Graham traveled with Trump from Florida to Washington, D.C. The hat, a play on Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan, suggests support for regime change in Iran. This occurred as Trump renewed threats against Iran, warning of military intervention if Iranian security forces harm anti-government protesters. The situation is further complicated by the recent US abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, an ally of Iran. Graham has publicly advocated for toppling the Iranian government, stating Trump has not abandoned the Iranian people.
