US President Donald Trump leveled an especially fierce attack against Israeli President Isaac Herzog regarding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's pardon request.
Trump harshly criticized the Israeli President, telling Barak Ravid of Channel 12 that Herzog is “a disgrace" and warning: “Tell him I’m exposing him." Trump said he has been discussing the issue with Herzog for about a year.
Trump added that Herzog should grant a pardon to Benjamin Netanyahu immediately, saying he does not want anything distracting Netanyahu from the war against Iran.
According to Trump, Herzog promised him several times that he would pardon Netanyahu. He said he told Herzog he would refuse to meet him again if the step was not taken and claimed the issue has been hanging over Netanyahu for the past year.
Trump is wrong on this one. First, the longer the trials go on, the more obvious it becomes that its the secular Ashkenazi elite trying to bring him down but without anything of substance to do it. They are making a mockery of themselves.
