David Ignatius on Iran: Trump’s Idea that There Is a Bright New Future with Reformers, Does Not Fit the Reality

EXCERPT:

IGNATIUS: “Take a look at the person who President Trump seems to be designating as the new regime, the Speaker of Parliament, Mohammad Bakr Khalibaf. This is a man who joined the Revolutionary Guard at 18. He's really never known anything but the IRGC and its toughness, its resistance. So the idea that this is a bright new future with reformers, which is some of what the president was suggesting yesterday, that just doesn't fit reality.”
