President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Deserve Each Other

Both Trump and Netanyahu have a lot in common.  Both love personal attacks against others, lies frequently, tries to intimidate others, they are spectacular untruthful about Iran and now we read where Israel Attorney General Avichal Mandelilt has indicated Netanyahu for fraud, breach of trust and accepting bribes after a three year investigation.  It is a reminder that President Trump had to settle a fraud lawsuit brought on by New York Attorney General against Trump University that defrauded Trump University students.  Trump settled the suit for $25 million.

Netanyahu used a Trump tactic after the indictment when he claimed he was the victim of a grand conspiracy by police and prosecutors who had intimidated key witnesses.  As every one knows Trump passes the buck and blames every one else for his own corruption.  He is doing it now during the impeachment inquiry by blaming those he appointed and worked close with who have testified under OATH about the President's corruption.  Netanyahu said the country was witnessing an attempted coup against him.  Those are the same words used by Trump concerning the impeachment hearings.

Both leaders are traitors to their country, the people and their OATH of office.  They are cowards who try to intimidate for their own self glory.  The people of Israel and the United States deserve better.  Netanyahu's party is collapsing while impeachment moves forward against President Trump.  Corruption attracts corruption.  And that really says it all.
