[00:00:00]What have you said to the the Prime Minister Netanyahu about Iran and how long to to hold off on strike?

[00:00:05]>> He'll do whatever I want him to do. He's very very good man.

[00:00:10]Uh, he'll do whatever I want him to do and he's a he's a great guy. To me, he's a great guy.

[00:00:16]Don't forget he was a wartime Prime Minister.

[00:00:19]And he's not treated right in Israel, in my opinion. I'm right now at 99% in Israel. I could run for Prime Minister.

[00:00:27]So, maybe after I do this I'll go to Israel and run for Prime Minister. I had a poll this morning. I'm 99%.

[00:00:34]So, that's good. But, uh No, he's a wartime Prime Minister and I just don't think they treat him well.

[00:00:41]Mr. President, what do you expect him I I think they have a president over there that treats him very poorly.

[00:00:45]>> Are you on the same page with him on Iran?

[00:00:48]Yeah.

[00:00:49]Mr. President, on the Iran deal, would you be open to a limited deal that just covered the Strait of Hormuz? What does that mean? On Iran, just a limited deal just for a longer ceasefire. It would have to open the strait. That would open immediately.

[00:01:02]So, we're going to give this one shot.

[00:01:03]I'm in no hurry. You never think, "Oh, the midterms, I'm in a hurry." I'm in no hurry. I just uh ideally I'd like to see few people killed as opposed to a lot.

[00:01:13]We can do it either way, but but I'd like to see few people killed.
