Trump and Netanyahu Are Meeting Again, and It’s Awkward

Original version ·

For the first time since the Iran conflict kicked off, Netanyahu and Trump are sitting down in the same room. Neither of them is having a great week.

Netanyahu is staring down a brutal reelection campaign back home, and his crumbling bromance with Trump isn't doing him any favors. Meanwhile, Trump is feeling the heat over an increasingly unpopular war that everyone wants wrapped up yesterday.

So now two guys under massive domestic pressure are sitting down to figure out how to save face. It's less of a diplomatic summit and more of a mutual political survival session.

Timing is everything in politics, especially when both sides desperately need a win to sell back home.

    Classic political theater. They'll drop a fake statement saying everything is great while burning each other behind closed doors.
