Trump, Netanyahu set to meet amid political and personal tension

Former US President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu met amidst ongoing tensions between their countries. Trump has criticized Netanyahu's handling of the Gaza conflict. Harris urged Netanyahu to accept a ceasefire deal in her meeting with him, but a final agreement remains elusive. Trump believes Israel is suffering from bad publicity and wants Netanyahu to end the conflict quickly. Netanyahu is balancing political relations with Biden and Trump, who still has support among his conservative base. Trump's presidency was seen as a favorable period for Israel's right wing due to his support for their agenda. Some of Netanyahu's coalition partners favor Trump's approach to the Gaza conflict and a potential return to power. Netanyahu has publicly emphasized cooperation with either Biden or Trump. The former president's anger towards Netanyahu stems from a perceived disloyalty during the 2020 US election and differences over the Iran and Gaza conflicts. Barack and Michelle Obama have endorsed Harris, the Democratic nominee. Pennsylvania Governor Shapiro is scheduled to campaign for Harris in his state, 100 days before the election.
