US President Donald Trump took credit for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's performance during the election on Wednesday morning by claiming his endorsement shifted the election's momentum.

Taking to Truth Social, the president quoted Irving C. Schwartz, who said, “When President Trump endorsed Bibi Netanyahu, the whole tide turned, and now, rather than a decisive defeat for a Great Prime Minister, it looks like a big come-from-behind stalemate, or even a WIN for Netanyahu. It all took place AFTER the Endorsement by President Trump, who only wants what is good for the Middle East, Israel, and the United States of America!”
