Imran Khan himself is leading the anti US troll to built up his case against ejection from power. He is accusing US for his ouster from government. Despite repeated denial of having any role in regime change in Pakistan by US top authorities , Imran Khan is keep on pushing his anti US narrative . As prime minister of Pakistan , his case based on anti US narrative for politics has severally damaged Pakistan and US relations .
