Trump and Netanyahu before October election

Donald Trump has repeatedly declined to endorse Benjamin Netanyahu as Israel's election approaches in October. With weeks remaining until the vote, polls show Netanyahu trailing while his coalition is projected to fall well short of a majority. Although Trump has praised him as a wartime leader, he stopped short of formally endorsing him whenever reporters offered the opportunity. Differences between the two have grown over the course of the war, leading Trump to call Netanyahu his own worst enemy. Axios writer Samuel questions whether Trump hopes his friend loses or is simply resigned to the outcome.
