Iranian-American Moj Mojan Mahdara, Gwyneth Paltrow's Iranian business partner, has criticised Democrats for criticizing President Trump's airstrikes on Iran, calling for them to overcome their dislike of the president. She compared the "decapitating" of the Islamic regime in Tehran to the fall of the Berlin Wall and urged fellow Democrats to trust the Iranian people. Despite many Democrats condemning the military action, Mahdaran praised the airstrikes and suggested that regime change in Iran could end Ukraine conflict faster than Russia's forces. She also highlighted China's dependence on sanction-busting Iranian crude oil.
