"You're fucking crazy": Trump fumes at Netanyahu in call on Lebanon

[orangecrush]

President Trump lashed out at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Israel's escalation in Lebanon in an expletive-laden call on Monday, two U.S. officials and a third source briefed on the call told Axios.

Why it matters: Earlier on Monday, Iran threatened to abandon the negotiations with the U.S. over Israel's actions in Lebanon. On the call, Trump called Netanyahu "crazy" and accused him of ingratitude, according to two of the sources. He also put the brakes on Israel's plan to strike Beirut.

Behind the scenes: One U.S. official said Trump told Netanyahu that following through on his threats to bomb the Lebanese capital would further isolate Israel around the world.

Two of the sources said Trump claimed he'd helped keep Netanyahu out of jail — a reference to his support during Netanyahu's corruption trial.
Summarizing Trump's remarks to Netanyahu, the U.S. official said: "You're fucking crazy. You'd be in prison if it weren't for me. I'm saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this."
A second source briefed on the call said Trump was "pissed" and at one point yelled at Netanyahu: "What the fuck are you doing?"

1. For once, I agree with Trump??

[Intractable]

6. "following through on his threats to bomb the Lebanese capital would further isolate Israel around the world"

Yup.

[Dave Bowman]

7. I know, right? 😯

[LuvLoogie]

2. I call bullshit.

[orangecrush]

17. Rings true to me

Your mileage may vary.

[LuvLoogie]

42. How shit mouth reacts to the "leak" will be telling.

Any word on that, yet?

[orangecrush]

48. Should be fun

[ecstatic]

33. Yeah, the problem is

Don't look at what they say, look at what they do.

I think trump is trying to cover his ass with the angry but gullible "America First" flank. It will buy him more time.

Meanwhile, BB doesn't give a fuck about stories like this. As long as he gets to indiscriminately kill as many people as he wants, he's satisfied.

Has a single dime of US money been pulled? Have any concrete actions been taken to stop BB? No.

On the other hand, if this story is true, then we might be headed for something even worse than what we've seen. We all know BB is a sick fuck, but so is trump. What will happen when our racist, corrupt psycho in chief realizes he got played?

[dalton99a]

3. He should have added: "Everybody hates ME now. Everybody hates America because of this."

[Buns_of_Fire]

12. Let me tell you this story about a snake, Donwuld. Oh, you've already heard it? nt

[Dave Bowman]

4. "Trump claimed he'd helped keep Netanyahu out of jail"

Wow, for once he's telling the truth. Except that it's helping him to stay out of jail too. Anyway, two peas in a pod, both nuts and horrible people.

[RockRaven]

5. Hey, Dumbshit Donald, you have been letting him dogwalk you for a decade.

So what does that make YOU?

[SunSeeker]

8. He's YOUR Frankenstein, Donald.

You and your fellow Republicans supported him and attacked anyone who didn’t as being anti-Israel/anti-semitic.

[doc03]

9. Sounds like Trump but from anonymous sources

can we beleive it?

[orangecrush]

19. I'd give it an 80% chance

Of being true.

[BootinUp]

10. actions, not words. nt

[buzzycrumbhunger]

11. Pot?

Meet Kettle!

[spanone]

13. They're both fucking crazy

[orangecrush]

20. Got that right

[hookaleft]

14. yeah sure he did

Barak Ravid is a mouth piece for Trump

[LoisB]

15. I don't believe it at all.

[struggle4progress]

16. Donny's skillset has contracted to the mere abilities to sleep and to shriek insults whenever he's awake

[orleans]

18. i don't know... i'm wondering who was whispering in his ear, telling him what to say nt

[AZJonnie]

21. I find some of it believable, but not this particular part

"One U.S. official said Trump told Netanyahu that following through on his threats to bomb the Lebanese capital would further isolate Israel around the world."

That's a heavily sane-washed account of the grammar-school taunt that it actually was, i.e. "Everybody hates Israel because of this".

Given that this writer at Axios is basically IQ47's stenographer, one can assume that Clowny McDollhands wants people to THINK he did this, which I suppose is mildly notable, regardless of its basis in reality.

All in all, I'd be unsurprised if it was all true, OR all entirely made up. No idea, really.

[Prairie Gates]

26. "Given that this writer at Axios is basically IQ47's stenographer,"

Both of them are!

I wouldn't believe Barak Ravid or Marc Caputo to tell me it's raining in a thunderstorm.

[NoMoreRepugs]

22. Perhaps TrumpenFuhrer is trying to set up NutenYahoo and Israel as the "reason"

his incredible negotiating skills fail to produce a peace with Iran??

[AZJonnie]

28. I don't think there's ANY doubt about that. That's why the Regime Stenographer at Axios put this story out.

Next we'll hear IQ47 is threatening to cut off aid to Israel unless Netanyahu steps down. He is signaling that Bibi is about to find himself under the bus.

Course, he'll find a great deal of company there. It seems nobody EVER learns that ETTD, and it's weirdly amazing to watch people in 2026 STILL thinking that there's actually some kind of "soul" or "human" behind that mug. He is the near-literal walking embodiment of evil. The person Jesus (and countless other moral philosophers) have tried to warn humanity about, going back for millennia. Absolutely ZERO SOUL, ZERO empathy, and ZERO concern for ANYONE apart from his own worthless ass. He'd throw ANYone under the bus if he feels they are not suitably contributing to his acquisition of money, power and his ability to order people to kill others (or march to their own deaths) on his behalf.

Except maybe Ivanka.

[Tanuki]

23. Interesting analysis of this:

Link to tweet

"The White House going out of its way to advertise Trump's alleged fury at Netanyahu like this sends a message: at least right now, Trump does not want this war reignited.

If the Hormuz crisis persists into July, the energy market and broader economic consequences become far more serious.

Many in Tehran will read this story as evidence that now is a particularly advantageous moment to increase pressure and extract better terms."

[Prairie Gates]

24. If Barak Ravid is reporting something, it's because both Trump AND Netanyahu want it reported

The guy is a MAGA chud and an IDF propagandist.

Honestly, give me a break with this bullshit.

[progressoid]

25. Gosh, such a potty mouth!

[Aussie105]

27. Isreal's ambition has always been to gain more ground.

Move aside neighbours, we want your land!

Trump and America have been played by Bibbi for a very long time.

The label of 'antisemitism' to silence any criticism of what Israel does is wearing mighty thin.

[Xolodno]

29. Every President (domestic and foreign) knew you couldn't trust Bibbi.

Some European Leader I forgot: "I don't like to talk to Bibbi, he's a liar"

Obama: "I know, but I have deal with him all the time".

Trump got rope a doped (again) into this. Now Bibbi is hoping the economic pressure will force our hand into some sort of invasion. I don't think he realized there is absolutely NO appetite for this among the public or even Congress. We lost Afghanistan and barely kept the screws down on Iraq. It's over. If Bibbi wants regime change in Tehran, he's going to have to invade himself. Iran has been preparing for this moment for decades.

[Mad_Machine76]

30. I love this

for both of them.

[liberalla]

31. I would say the same to drumpf!

What the fuck are you doing?
You're fucking crazy!
Everybody hates you now!
Everybody hates trump/US because of this!

Looking in the mirror donnie...

[Mossfern]

32. It was Trump's CHOICE

to back Netanyahu - he had options. Trump is merely using another person to blame for the mess he's in now - as usual.

You know, my youngest son, when he was a toddler, had an imaginary friend "Sheba" who always made him draw on the walls ...or sometimes Sheba did the coloring herself. This seems very similar. Netanyahu didn't MAKE Trump do anything.

[underpants]

46. Absolutely

[rickford66]

34. When you criticize Isreal, you are antisemitic. Isn't that so Donny ?

[Aussie105]

35. The term 'anti-Semitic' has never been clearly defined.

Yes, against 'Semites', but who are they, exactly?

Is their identity based on religion, language, or nationality?

Israelis are a mixed bunch, a lot have dual citizenship, English is one of the dominant languages there, and a lot are of religions not based on Christianity.

What is the opposite term that someone in Iran could use to collectively describe an enemy country that uses a language or religion not common to Iran?

Iran:
Languages = Persian (Farsi) is the official language of Iran, while Azeri, Kurdish, Luri, Arabic, and several other languages are spoken regionally and by minority communities.

Religions = Iran is predominantly Shia Muslim, with Sunni Muslims and small recognized religious minorities including Christians, Jews, and Zoroastrians.

We tend to think of both Israelis and Iranians as being a uniform population, but it just isn't so.
Just like America isn't.

People oversimplify to absurdity, ie Israel is Christian, Iran is Muslim.
And the inference?
Christianity good, Muslim bad.

[Aussie105]

36. Donny thinks he is in charge and calling the shots.

Truth is, he never was and never will be, he is being played by some for being a useful idiot and sneered at by others for just that, being an idiot.

Keep the ketchup bottled away from him!

[orangecrush]

41. This.

[Cha]

37. And everybody who isn't insanely perverted

hates you, Homicidal Maniacal Pedophile.

Looks like PEDO is worried his number will sink further.

[DFW]

38. That will surely impress. Trump tells Netanyahu he is crazy?

I can imagine Netanyahu´s immediate answer: "I'm crazy? Have you looked in a mirror lately, Donny Boy?"

[PuraVidaDreamin]

39. Takes one to know one

F U C K I N G C R A Z Y !

[Emile]

40. Seriously, I was just getting ready to say the exact same thing. LOL

[LymphocyteLover]

43. LMAO!!!

[Happy Hoosier]

44. Trump still thinks he's the senior partner in that relationship...

Nutandyahoo has played him like a fiddle.

[orangecrush]

45. Truth

[travelingthrulife]

47. That's some major projection by Trump.
