................

The president, 79, was speaking to the press at Joint Base Andrews on Wednesday ahead of his departure for Connecticut for a Coast Guard graduation ceremony when he gushed about his own approval ratings in Israel.

“I’m right now at 99 percent in Israel,” he said. “I could run for Prime Minister, so maybe after I do this, I’ll go to Israel, run for Prime Minister. I had a poll this morning. I’m 99 percent, so that’s good.”

It’s not clear which poll Trump was referring to.

His 99 percent claim beats his home numbers, where his polling has plunged into a death spiral.

In order to become Prime Minister of Israel, you have to be a member of the Knesset, the country’s parliament. In order to be elected to the Knesset, you have to be an Israeli national. ........................
