Excerpts from journalist Michael Wolff’s tell-all on the Trump administration previously detailed that former US President Donald Trump felt betrayed by former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after he congratulated then Democratic rival Joe Biden on winning the 2020 election. Bibi was one of the last world leaders to acknowledge the win.
David Friedman, who once served as the US ambassador to Israel, recently confirmed that former US President Donald Trump was indeed upset when he was informed that former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu offered his congratulations to Joe Biden after being declared the winner of the 2020 presidential election.
The confirmation came during a Tuesday interview with Talkline Network radio host Zev Brenner that saw Friedman speak on a variety of subjects, including the various difficulties that he encountered while he held the ambassador post.
“We were at a time which was extremely sensitive,” Friedman said, noting that Bibi’s recognition of the end of the Trump administration came as the former president repeatedly voiced that the “elections weren’t fair.”
Friedman further detailed that while he has not spent as much time with Trump as he had done so in the past, he has kept in touch with the former commander-in-chief, as he has been working on a documentary about the US-brokered Abraham Accords.
Excerpts of Wolff’s tell-all began emerging last week, with the Forward news outlet being among the first to detail how Netanyahu’s congratulations to Biden was received as the “ultimate betrayal” by Trump.
Despite months passing since the election, Trump has continued to voice unsubstantiated claims that voter fraud prompted his reelection loss.
