The Republican said the end of the Islamic Republic is in sight, saying the regime could be kicked out of power “in the blink of an eye”.
Protests in the country have continued this month after first erupting late last year due to anger at soaring unemployment and economic problems.
These spiralled into bigger demonstrations as citizens vented their anger at the regime ruled by religious leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
But despite Tehran clamping down on the protests, with hundreds of demonstrators rounded up and arrested, Mr Rohrabacher said they signal the end for the regime.
He was speaking yesterday at a conference in Paris organised by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) and the People’s Mojahedin Organisation of Iran (PMOI).
Mr Rohrabacher, who is the head of the Foreign Affairs Committee on Europe, Eurasia and Emerging Threats, told Daily Star Online: “This uprising, although right now it looks like it has gone away, but it has not.
“It is just under the surface right now and can pop up at any moment.
“I think the prospects [for a regime change] are very, very good. The mullah regime’s days are numbered.
“The uprising that started several months ago is now right under the surface.
“It can jump up again before anyone knows and the mullah regime could end up being kicked out of power in a blink of an eye. Their days are numbered.”
Mr Rohrabacher also praised Prudent Donald Trump’s approach to Iran, saying the days of the United States turning a blind eye are over.
