In this context, Rouhani seeks to increase his popularity once again among the youth and middle class, which were the main demographics voting in the presidential elections of June 2013. These voting blocs enabled him to beat four conservative fundamentalist candidates in the first round of elections. However, this class heatedly criticized him after failing to keep most of his promises from the electoral campaign in 2013.However, these efforts are still in their early stages and may face gradually increasing challenges with the presidential elections drawing near, especially after the map of potential presidential candidates revealed that the capability of the conservative fundamentalists to unite their lines behind one candidate to compete with Rouhani became clear.Undoubtedly, the Republican candidate Donald Trump¶s win in the U.S. presidential elections may present another variable which will have a role in determining Rouhani¶s opportunities in renewing his mandate of presidency. In light of Trump¶s interest in the nuclear deal between Iran and the P5+1 and Iran¶s support for terrorism, its presence in Syria, and its stance on the war against the Islamic State (ISIS), the US¶s relationship with Iran¶s president may shift.Several Justifications:It has become evident that President Rouhani is attempting to alter his political tone towards his main supporters.
