US President-elect Donald Trump dined this evening with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s wife Sara at the Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach, Florida.
A photo of the pair is posted on X by Trump’s deputy director of communications.
Netanyahu is in Miami for several weeks to visit her son Yair. Her trip will keep her out of the country during the beginning of the prime minister’s scheduled testimony in his criminal trial.
Trump has built a rapport with Netanyahu’s wife, careful to offer her praise when in front of the prime minister.
When the Netanyahus last met Trump in July, the then-presidential candidate quipped that Sara was his “secret weapon.”
“As long as I have Sara, that’s all that matters,” Trump quipped then.
