Prospective prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu pans outgoing Prime Minister Yair Lapid after the latter said earlier that the incoming government’s attitude toward public concerns over its policies is “Bite me.”
“This is what the new government is saying to the citizens of Israel,” Lapid said at the Knesset.
In response Netanyahu tweets that “Lapid can’t put a ball over the goal line even after the final whistle.
“He still hasn’t internalized the election results. Lapid lost and the right won. Very soon we’ll form a strong right-wing government that will fix Lapid’s mess and take care of all Israelis.”
