Trump Pushes GOP To Fold Iran Into Graham's Russia Sanctions Bill

Trump Pushes GOP To Fold Iran Into Graham's Russia Sanctions Bill

Trump credits the idea to Senator Lindsey Graham and flags the post 'IMPORTANT!!!' with triple exclamation marks.

  • Trump posted the demand on Truth Social, urging Republicans to add Iran to the bill.
  • He says the addition was Graham's original plan and 'was going to happen,' per the post.
  • He marked the post 'IMPORTANT!!!' and signed it 'President DJT,' his usual closing.

Why it matters: A bill advances by roll-call vote in the Senate, not by exclamation points typed on a phone.
