You’ve got to at least admire the effort that was put into this. Iran’s supreme leader has threatened Donald Trump with assassination by posting a pretty high-quality drawing of a drone looming over the former president while he takes a golf swing. The image on Twitter shows a particularly rotund-looking Trump teeing off with a drone shadow above him. It’s captioned with Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s remarks from December, in which he said “Revenge is certain” over the Trump-ordered killing of top Iranian military commander General Qassem Soleimani last year. Around 15 hours after the tweet was posted, Twitter suspended the account, though a separate one that mainly tweets in English remains online.
