Trump said that if Iran or its proxies threaten retaliation against him, he has "left instructions": "If they do so, it would be a most despicable act, not because of me. If they do so, they will be completely destroyed. Everything will end. I have left instructions, (Iran) will leave no remnants. They should not even have the capability to do so."

Intelligence officials during the Biden administration had informed Trump about the so-called threats against him during the previous presidential campaign.

Former Attorney General Garland said the conspiracy was a retaliatory action targeting the killing of Iranian general Soleimani during Trump's first term as president.

However, Trump also directed his criticism at the previous administration: "Biden should also make such a statement, but he never did. For some reason, perhaps due to lack of intelligence. If such an incident occurred against a leader or their close associates, frankly, if it involved other personnel, you would certainly demand the complete destruction of the country responsible, including all proxy forces."
