Will Narcissist Trump’s Bizarre Praise for Hezbollah Hurt Him?
Plus: Why he attacked his former ally and admirer Netanyahu.
DENNIS AFTERGUT
OCT 12, 2023
At an event in West Palm Beach on Wednesday night, just four days after Hamas’s brutal attack on Israeli civilians, Trump did the unthinkable.
Not only did he fail to recognize the horror of Hamas’s war crimes, something that even staunch critics of Israel’s treatment of civilians in Gaza have done. Trump actually went out of his way to praise Hezbollah, Hamas’s Jordan-based military counterpart: “You know, Hezbollah is very smart,” Trump said. “They’re all very smart.”
The Israeli government’s communications minister, Shlomo Karhi, called Trump’s comments “shameful.”
Trump also took the opportunity to blast Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu—not over Netanyahu’s autocratic attempt to remake the Israeli judiciary in his own image, which divided the country and arguably made it vulnerable to attack. Rather it was for something completely unrelated and unsubstantiated.
Trump bizarrely claimed that in January 2020, Netanyahu, at the eleventh hour, abruptly backed out of the U.S. operation to assassinate Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani.
“We did it,” Trump said, “but I’ll never forget that Bibi Netanyahu let us down. That was a very terrible thing.”
You might recall that Netanyahu used to lavish Trump with praise, not only calling him “a true friend” of Israel but “the best friend Israel has ever had in the White House,” a fulsome description Trump relished repeating. Netanyahu even went so far as to name a settlement “Trump Heights” in 2019—a name that’s still in place even after Trump’s two impeachments, four indictments, and attempt to overthrow the 2020 election.
So why would Trump choose this moment, after a horrific terrorist attack, to make a charge relating to a three-year old event, kicking his onetime ally, Netanyahu, while he is down? It’s no mystery: Netanyahu praised Joe Biden on Tuesday for his strong support for Israel.
Praise for President Biden is not something that Trump’s narcissistic ego can tolerate. So Trump, the would-be emperor, struck back.
No doubt we’ll be seeing 30-second ads from the Biden campaign and pro-Biden PACs replaying the clip of Trump expressing admiration for Hezbollah.

Thinking it and saying it in public are 2 completely different things. But Trump saying Hezbollah is smart is stupid under the circumstances. But the really stupid thing he said was the crack about Netenyahu.

Making shite up to argue against is the only way Trump superfans can pose an argument they can feel good about.

Yep…I particularly am enjoying those claiming that Trump is some sort of Sun Tzu by saying it’s “smart” to to talk about the intelligence of adversaries.
The best, however, are those that are whining like bitches saying DeSantis is acting like a democrat with his criticism of Trump on this issue.

Very spot on post. Time and time again Trump insults people for the smallest of reasons.
He is the man that insulted POWs, dead veterans, and was embarrassed to have wounded veterans in photos with him. He is a wack job---a deranged narcissist.

A perfect description of Ronbots. Those checks from his campaign must have stopped because you don't see much of them around here anymore.

They can’t, and they know it. But they’ll keep clutching their pearls while rational people understand the stupidity of what Trump said.
They are baby skin soft.

“If you think blah blah blah, then you are yada yada yada”
So sophomoric. You’re pissed because your false god, trump, said something fricking dumb. It is what it is. Let him defend himself.
How about this, find someone that has the ability to communicate without looking incompetent and without the need for you and your maga far right freaks to slobber his knob every time he says something dumb…which seems to be a full time job these days.

Why?
The Israeli people want to get rid of Netanyahu, he’s been hanging on by a thread using every move possible to stay in power. The guy is a crook.
