The key question that everyone's asking, is Trump going to act in supporting the revolution, which theoretically I would imagine would involve attacking IRGC sites, which are the revolutionary guard that

are sort of the internal security force that maintains the regime's control over the people.

And if they take out IRGC sites, will that actually result in the people being free?

And what's the transition plan?

This is obviously a very messy situation.

Reza Pahlavi is in Europe.

And he said he's ready to come back and he is the Shah's son.

And if he comes back, how are you going to give him influence and control?

This is the same question that recently came up in Venezuela.

There is a very large infrastructure that needs to be overseen of government agencies.

And, you know, you can't bring an outsider in and just plug them right in to take over everything.

It's a very difficult transition.

And that's when things fall apart, when people steal stuff, when...

things get turned off.

So how do you maintain kind of the core functioning of society without breaking it by bringing someone new from the outside?

That's where this gets very messy.

So I don't know what's ahead.

Well, we got a lot of water.

It just goes around in a circle.

So I don't think that's an issue.
