Iran Stages Mock Execution Of Trump After US Midterm Setback | Democrats Take Congress

Iran has staged a mock execution of US President Donald Trump in Tehran, following a major electoral setback for Republicans in the 2026 US midterm elections. The performance featured an actor wearing a Trump mask, dressed as a prisoner and subjected to a staged hanging in Tehran's Tajrish Square. The spectacle came after Democrats won control of both chambers of the US Congress, flipping seats in traditionally Republican strongholds.
