"In a Wall Street Journal report published on Thursday, Trump's reported response to Netanyahu's move was detailed, including complaining to senior officials that the Israeli prime minister is f**king him and his goals of a negotiated ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. He's f**king me, Trump told senior aides, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in a meeting on Israel's Doha strike, according to officials familiar with the situation."
"Rubio previously made it clear that Trump was not happy with the strike, but it has not changed the United States' position. We're going to continue to be strong allies and partners. As the president said, he wasn't happy with the way things went down. That doesn't mean we're going [to] stop being their partner and their ally, Rubio told Fox News."
President Donald Trump reacted angrily to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's strike on Hamas negotiators in Qatar, expressing to senior aides that 'He's f**king me' and voicing displeasure over interference with ceasefire goals. The strike killed multiple Hamas officials. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Trump was unhappy but the United States' position and alliance with Israel remain unchanged. Trump placed two calls to Netanyahu—one expressing displeasure and another congratulatory—and thanked Qatari leaders for mediating. Officials indicated Trump does not seek a public break with Israel and remains close to Netanyahu, despite some Israeli officials denying misalignment.
