Apr 7, 2026·1 min read

President Donald Trump said today that he told Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu that Israel would not have survived had the United States remained in the 2015 nuclear agreement brokered under President Barack Obama.

Speaking at the White House, Trump recounted his conversation with Netanyahu..

“I told this to Bibi Netanyahu yesterday,” he says at the White House.

Trump again expressed confusion over Jewish voting patterns in the United States, criticizing those who support Democratic candidates.

“How Israel can vote for a Democrat — if you’re Jewish in New York City or any place else in this country, how you can vote for a Democrat is unbelievable because (Obama) chose Iran,” Trump says.
