Nah, my understanding from past reading is that Iranian intelligence has generally sought to undermine Trump’s campaign.
Remember that Trump knocked off the second-in-command guy in Iran a few years back and is generally more supportive of Israel, which is in active conflict with Hezbollah and Hamas, who are Iranian proxies.
Some stuff in the news about it recently, remember:
Iranian hackers sent ‘stolen’ Trump campaign material to individuals associated with Biden campaign: FBI
The FBI said there is “no indication” those individuals replied.
Russian intelligence, on the other hand, has been supportive of Trump’s campaign.
I think that the real takeaway here is that we seriously need to improve the state of information security on political campaigns. We’ve had repeated compromises so far. There are a number of countries out there with an interest either in who becomes the next leader of the US or in swiping private material on whichever that might be useful for blackmail purposes down the line. China, for example, might not try to swing the election, but I am confident that Chinese intelligence would be interested in having compromising information on an American president.
Definitely not. Remember the nuclear deal that Obama got with Iran? The one that lifted sanctions in return for allowing UN inspectors in to ensure compliance? President Convict unilaterally torpedoed it and reinstated sanctions. Iran would love to resume the deal, which may or may not happen with Harris, but absolutely would not happen if President Convict gets into the White House again.
They’re probably trying to get in and proofread/polish the material. I can’t imagine that they wouldn’t love a second Trump presidency.

President Convict also had their top general assassinated which did not exactly help diplomatic relations.
