In the post, Trump described Netanyahu as a ‘great warrior prime minister’ and an ally in the war against Iran.

He said, “If Israel chooses the wrong leader, someone other than Bibi, then the United States will have to take that job upon itself. And I’m not willing to do that.”
Trump said, “This is exactly the kind of partnership that the United States needs from Israel, after all, the United States has given so much to this country.”
