Once very well-liked in Israel, President Donald Trump’s popularity has taken a nosedive in that country, according to a story by Newsmax.
Trump’s approval in Israel has undergone a striking fall after his administration’s agreement with Iran and a series of odd severe public and private criticisms of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to a new survey published by the Kantar Institute and the Israeli daily Hayom.
Cited by well-known Israeli commentator Amit Segal, the poll found that Trump’s status among Israelis has experienced a notable setback in just three weeks.
Just late last month, President Trump had a 58% approval rating against 35% disapproval. In other words, he was one of the most accepted political figures in Israel.

And Israel is NOT HAPPY about it.
Core elements include:
Permanent end to hostilities on all fronts (including Lebanon).
Respect for sovereignty and non-interference.

Today, his net favorability has fallen from plus-16 points to minus-23 points, placing him behind Netanyahu, former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, and former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot.
Trump’s popularity downfall is seemingly linked to two developments: A general Israeli criticism of Trump’s Iran agreement and growing irritation over his attacks on Netanyahu.
Trump recently confirmed reports that he called Netanyahu “f***ing crazy” during a nerve-wracking phone call over Israel’s military operations in Lebanon.
He said he was “perturbed” by Netanyahu’s “constant fighting with Lebanon,” although he also said he liked the Israeli leader and worked well with him.
And the biggest shift happened among voters viewed as crucial to Israel’s next election.
Netanyahu has replied cautiously but publicly defended Israel’s right to act independently against threats from Iran and Hezbollah.
