"I don't think they treat him very well. He's under trial for some things, and I don't think they treat him very well," he said, adding: "We'll be involved in that to help him out a little bit, because I think it's very unfair."
""Cigars and champagne, who the hell cares about this?" Trump said, referring to alleged illicit gifts mentioned in one of the charges."
""had to push [Netanyahu] a little bit one way or the other" to get the Gaza peace deal."
""I didn't like certain things that he did, and you saw what I did about that," Trump added."
Trump called Benjamin Netanyahu a very talented leader needed during wartime and said Netanyahu was not being treated well amid ongoing trials. Trump said the United States would be involved to help Netanyahu because the treatment was unfair. Trump previously urged President Isaac Herzog to pardon Netanyahu during an address to the Israeli parliament and criticized corruption allegations as trivial. Netanyahu faces bribery, fraud and breach of trust charges related to gifts and alleged regulatory favors for a telecom tycoon. The trial has stretched on for four years amid delay tactics and accusations of using executive power to stall. Trump said he pushed Netanyahu to secure a Gaza peace deal and described the ceasefire as solid.
