Trump to Axios: Netanyahu has "no fucking judgment" but Iran deal still on

Source: Axios

Updated 47 mins ago


President Trump tells Axios the U.S.–Iran deal to end the war is still on track for Sunday despite Israel's strike in Beirut and the Iranian threat to retaliate.

Why it matters: The president is racing to save a deal that nearly collapsed the moment Israel struck Beirut, leaning on private diplomacy and public messaging to get it signed. Iranian officials haven't confirmed a deal is expected to be signed today.

  • "It shook it up. It delayed the signing by a few hours. It was supposed to be now. Now it is scheduled for a few hours from now," Trump said in a phone call.
  • The escalation in Lebanon took place hours before the U.S. and Iran were supposed to sign a deal to end their war.
  • Ebrahim Azizi, chair of the Iranian parliament's national security committee, wrote on X: "A strong response is coming"


  • State of play: Trump said he was shocked when his advisers called to brief him about the Israeli strike in Beirut, and he fumed at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

  • "It is so bad — I couldn't believe it. An hour before we are supposed to sign the deal."
  • Trump acknowledged Hezbollah attacked Israel first but stressed it didn't cause any damage and nobody had been killed.
  • "Why did Bibi have to do a fucking attack? I was so pissed off. I let him know. He has no fucking judgement. I let him know that," Trump said.

    Bibi knew Trump was a malignant narcissist, knew if he showered Trump with praise, appealed to his insatiable ego, he could convince Trump to bomb Iran…and Trump did just that..

    garish, theatrical backdrop from his birthday jubilee when he dramatically makes the show-stopper announcement that he has removed Iran's nuclear threat. (That's my prediction, anyway. Should I place one of those bets all the kids are talking about?)

    It's like a national joke that he's Trump's stenographer and a Netanyahu stooge. This is all orchestrated.

    We should not continue to endorse this fraud.

    That would be a shame if true. It would just further damage trump's legacy.

    Here is an idea Trump, save your little act and actually do something about Bibi. The monster does not want a deal, he wants the US to continue attacking Iran.

    Also, Trump telling anyone that they have no judgment is actually a compliment.
