Quote:During his address to the Israeli parliament on Monday, President Trump went off script and urged President Issac Herzog to pardon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is standing trial on three corruption charges.
It's a stunning intervention in Israel's domestic politics and judicial system, made from the Knesset podium. Trump has weighed in on Netanyahu's trial before, but in his speech, he went further than ever before to boost his ally's domestic political standing.
What he's saying: "I have an idea Mr. President, why don't you give him a pardon?"
- "Cigars and champagne, who the hell cares about this?" Trump said, referring to alleged illicit gifts mentioned in one of the charges.
- Trump praised Netanyahu's leadership during the last two years of war. "You are very popular because you know how to win," he said.
