Iran Showcases Threats Against Trump
Tehran displayed large billboards and banners in public places on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, featuring strong threats against US President Donald Trump. The messages, written in English, included phrases such as “We will kill Trump” and “There will be blood.” The displays were part of a wider campaign against the United States and its allies.
One of the main billboards in Enghelab Square showed Trump wearing handcuffs with his head lowered. Another nearby display featured Trump, US Vice President J.D. Vance, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and other figures with bloodied faces and torn clothing. The background included damaged-looking flags of the United States and Israel.
Large crowds gathered in Enghelab Square, waving Iranian flags and expressing anger over the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. He was reportedly killed in a US-Israeli attack earlier this year. Some people at the gathering called for revenge, reflecting the growing anger among sections of the Iranian public.
In another part of Tehran, Tajrish Square hosted an outdoor exhibition featuring paintings of Trump. One artwork showed him lying on the ground with blood on his face while another person’s foot pressed against his head. The exhibition also included a life-sized replica of a prison cell, where an actor dressed as Trump appeared inside.
Nearby screens displayed images of destruction caused by US airstrikes in Iran. These visuals were intended to highlight the impact of the attacks and strengthen the political message of the exhibition.
Iran has a long history of using public artwork, murals, and billboards to communicate political messages. This practice became particularly prominent following the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Such displays frequently criticize countries considered political enemies, especially the United States and Israel.
The latest campaign comes at a time when international efforts are continuing to explore the possibility of restarting peace talks between Tehran and Washington. However, relations between the two countries remain tense.
Meanwhile, Trump is facing growing political pressure ahead of key midterm elections in the United States. Voter concerns and anger over the Iran war could become important issues in the upcoming elections.
The displays in Tehran highlight the continuing hostility between Iran and the United States, as diplomatic efforts face significant challenges amid rising political tensions.
