Not Quite Baghdad Bob Territory

10/3/26 Reuters describes how the Iranian rial has reached historic lows, which is what Trump is trying to do: crash their economy:

Mehdi Darabi, an aide to the central bank's governor ​on foreign exchange ​affairs, blamed ⁠the decline of the rial partly on what he said were false predictions ​by US officials of the collapse of ​the Iranian ⁠economy.
"It is suggested that the Iranian economy is about to crash... The enemy is using this to affect ⁠the ​exchange rate of our currency," ​Darabi told state TV, adding that the current fall of the rial ​was temporary.
