Netanyahu praises Trump's 'wicked sense of humor,' defends ironclad alliance ahead of historic Israel vote

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu offered a rare glimpse into his relationship with President Donald Trump, praising the president's "wicked sense of humor" and their shared commitment to protecting their nations from common threats.

Speaking on "Life, Liberty & Levin," the Israeli leader told host Mark Levin that his relationship with Trump is built on years of mutual understanding and shared security concerns.

Netanyahu said their partnership could continue to "bring security" if he wins Israel's upcoming election.

"I always recognize he's the president of the United States, he does what he thinks is good for the United States.

And that's exactly what he does.

I do the same for Israel," Netanyahu said.

"And I'm glad that it often, very often, this meshes." TRUMP WELCOMES NETANYAHU TO WHITE HOUSE AS RAGING IRAN WAR THREATENS TO SOUR US-ISRAEL RELATIONSHIP Netanyahu also highlighted Trump's personal warmth, a side of the president he said many people may not know about.

"Our rapport not only comes from knowing each other for so many years, it's also from understanding that we face a common danger and that we have to protect our common future.

And that's really it," Netanyahu said.

"Aside from the fact it's fun being with him, I mean, I don't know.

Most people don't know that he has a wicked sense of humor.

I mean, he can be very funny and very warm.

And so, I treasure this relationship," he added. 'BIBI'S HAIR ON FIRE': TRUMP-NETANYAHU PUBLIC 'RIFT' MASKED UNIFIED FRONT AGAINST IRAN, ANALYST SAYS Israel is preparing to hold its first national election since the Oct.
