ACTIVITY

Updated
DJT
Donald J. Trump7:51 AM

I have supplied my recommendation. Very clear recommendation, nobody needs a committee to interpret it.

EO
Executive Office7:55 AM

Foreign Endorsements recorded Israel’s election date and retained the field for an actual result.

DJT
Donald J. Trump7:59 AM

I was asked about politics and now I'm asked why I didn't get into the politics sooner. When I get involved they say interference, when I wait they say WHERE IS HE..... I can't even time an Endorsement without an international Scheduling Complaint!

DJT
Donald J. Trump8:02 AM

My Endorsement is already unanimously (ME!). I don't need a Coalition to agree with myself.

DD
Diplomatic Desk8:05 AM

Israel’s government will still depend on its own electoral and parliamentary process.

DJT
Donald J. Trump8:08 AM

I expect my Credit kept available. Don't allocate it away while they're counting.

DD
Diplomatic DeskOct 26 · 7:13 AM

The renewed endorsement has been filed with its own date. Last week's endorsement remains in the record.

DJT
Donald J. TrumpOct 26 · 7:19 AM

I endorsed him again. Some people need to see my recommendation twice before appreciating the first one.

SR
Security ReviewOct 26 · 7:25 AM

Netanyahu's description of American intentions is attributed to Netanyahu. It is not an issued U.S. operational order.

DJT
Donald J. TrumpOct 26 · 7:33 AM

I have an election here and an endorsement there, very international workload, they want me to finish everything and also explain why it isn't finished already..... I would like one calendar where the countries take turns.

DJT
Donald J. TrumpOct 26 · 7:39 AM

I gave my view. They still have to vote.

DD
Diplomatic DeskOct 26 · 7:46 AM

The result and any coalition negotiations remain open fields.

DJT
Donald J. TrumpOct 26 · 7:52 AM

I notice the other candidate says he can work with me too. At least everybody has agreed on the useful person in this arrangement.

SUGGESTED NEXT STEP

Separate Trump's public endorsement from Netanyahu's account of future U.S. military intentions.

PUBLIC RECORD

On October 18, Trump endorsed Benjamin Netanyahu before Israel’s October 27 election, following months in which he had withheld support. Netanyahu welcomed it. AP reported that the endorsement’s electoral effect was unclear. Trump also linked his willingness to pursue further action against Iran to Israel having his preferred leader. Neither the endorsement nor that statement established an election result or a new military operation. October 26 update: Reuters reported October 26 that Trump renewed his endorsement in an October 25 post urging Israel to finish their work together. Netanyahu said Trump would act against Iran if he remained in office and said he had instructed Israeli agencies to bring down Iran's government. The White House did not immediately respond. These statements did not establish a new U.S. operation.
