The Israeli prime minister's meeting with Donald Trump came after Benjamin Netanyahu held talks with vice president Kamala Harris, after which she said she will "not be silent" over suffering in Gaza.

Donald Trump hosted Benjamin Netanyahu at his Florida resort as he dismissed reports of tensions between the pair and attacked Kamala Harris’s “disrespectful” comments about the Gaza war.

The former US president welcomed the Israeli prime minister to his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach for their first meeting since September 2020.

The Republican presidential nominee and Mr Netanyahu have reportedly been at odds since the Israeli PM congratulated Joe Biden for his victory in the 2020 presidential election, which Mr Trump falsely claimed was stolen from him.

It was all smiles between Mr Trump and Mr Netanyahu on Friday, however, with the American saying “we have a very good relationship” and insisting it was “never bad”.

    Logan act says otherwise.

    Any discussion that undermines the sitting president’s policy goals is illegal. It was created for exactly this situation- political opponents meeting with and disrupting negotiations.

        So you agree it is in fact illegal to do what Trump is doing?

        Great! Glad we got that sorted.

        Speeding is also illegal, even if everyone does it.

          No, i dont agree. That act isnt used because it doesnt hold up in court against the first amendment. Its deprecated.
