Trump Resents Netanyahu Over the Gaza Deal

Oct 29, 2026

This is bad news for Trump's standing on his own Gaza deal, which looks weaker the longer Netanyahu keeps undercutting it.

  • Trump reportedly felt tricked after Netanyahu's camp pushed for a deal that amounted to a one-sided surrender by the other side.
  • He was reportedly happy to announce the agreement, but Israel bombed Lebanon within two days, blowing up the moment.
  • He is said to privately resent Netanyahu and want out of the situation, even while publicly still backing him.
  • The gap between his private frustration and his public endorsement of Netanyahu is being called out as hard to explain.

Outlook: Expect continued tension between Trump's public support for Netanyahu and private frustration over how the deal has played out.
