And the article linked there is an excerpt from a book at Haberman co-authored -- after spending hours interviewing Trump?
Trump has no problem talking to his enemies, and he knows full well they will lie, twist and deceive. He calls them out for it.

Yes, Israel benefits from our actions, but us not getting nuked because we wiped out Iran's nuke program, benefits us more.
