Donald Trump slammed his former ally Benjamin Netanyahu for congratulating Joe Biden on winning last year’s presidential election, saying ‘f*** him.’
Trump said, “I haven’t spoken with him since.” F*** him,’ Trump said.
Both men praised their friendship and mutual admiration during Trump’s presidency. Netanyahu was the Israeli prime minister. Trump claimed that he valued loyalty and claimed Netanyahu was unloyal for his congratulatory of Biden.
“I loved Bibi. I still like Bibi. However, loyalty is also something that I enjoy. Bibi was first to commend Biden. He congratulated him on the tape,” Trump said to Axios. Trump was referring to Netanyahu as his nickname.
Netanyahu did not become the first leader in the world to felicitate Biden, and he had to wait more than 12 hours for his congratulations to be sent by the U.S. networks.
He He did tweet his condolences and a video to thank Biden on November 8, 2020. This was the day that the election result had been announced in Biden’s favor. This is the original post. he and Biden have had a ‘long & warm’ personal relationship for almost 40 years and sees him as ‘a great friend of Israel’ and looks forward to working together.
Bibi should have kept his mouth shut. Trump declared, “He has made a horrible mistake.”

Trump stated that he had done more for Israel than any other person.
Trump is continuing to spread the myth that he won the 2020 election.
According to him, the ex-leader of Israel was disloyal and had helped Netanyahu get his elections. He said that the United States reversed decades worth of policy and supported Israel’s claims on the Golan Heights. The Golan Heights were captured from Syria by Israel during the war of 1967.
Netanyahu also thanked Trump in a Twitter message at that time. He said so privately, “for the friendship you’ve shown to the state of Israel, and to me personally for recognizing Jerusalem and Golan, and standing up against Iran. For the historic peace agreements and for elevating the American-Israeli Alliance to new heights.”
Trump claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin was waiting to congratulate Biden. The Trump campaign filed lawsuits in several states for months following the election. They demanded recounts, which revealed that Biden won.
“There wasn’t anyone who was more dedicated to Netanyahu than I. No one did more for Israel than me. Trump complained about Netanyahu being the first to welcome Joe Biden.
“And he not only congratulated him, he also did it via video. He waited for months to congratulate leaders from other countries, such as Brazil. Putin. Other leaders are also available. Mexico. They all felt the same way. They waited, however. Bibi was my only priority. We also gave them money. We provided them with soldiers and a large amount of cash. He said that we did everything.
Netanyahu was removed as prime minister after failing to create a majority of government officials in response to four difficult elections that took place in less than two year.
While he is being tried for corruption, he continues to wage a campaign to win the prime minister’s chair back.
Trump took extraordinary steps to support Israel. He dropped his objections about its settlements in the West Bank. And he recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. The administration brokered normalization deals between Israel and four Arab countries after it had proposed a Mideast Plan that was rejected by the Palestinians.
Trump claimed that his recognition of Israel’s annexation the Golan Heights from Syria, which was captured in 1967, gave Netanyahu an advantage in Israeli elections scheduled for April 2019.
‘I did it right before the election, which helped him (Netanyahu) a lot,’ Trump told Israeli journalist Barak Ravid for his forthcoming book ‘Trump’s Peace: The Abraham Accords and the Reshaping of the Middle East.’
Trump’s administration pulled out of the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement, which Israel strongly opposed. He imposed the same U.S. sanctions which had been lifted as part of the agreement again, and Iran started publicly surpassing the limitations it had placed on its nuclear program. Biden now works with the world’s powers to restore the accord.
‘I´ll tell you what – had I not come along I think Israel was going to be destroyed,’ Trump said in the remarks published by the Yediot Aharonot newspaper. I believe Israel might have been destroyed by now.
