Trump shares post crediting his support for helping Netanyahu in Israeli elections

President Trump shared a post on social media attributing Netanyahu's improved electoral standing to Trump's endorsement. The post, originally from Irving C. Schwartz—a figure who is not publicly known—claims that after Trump expressed support for Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister "managed to erase a large deficit and reach a tie—and maybe even a victory." The post states Trump "wants only the best for the Middle East, Israel, and the United States of America." Trump retweeted the statement rather than authoring it himself.
