President-elect Donald Trump met with Sara Netanyahu, the wife of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, for dinner at Trump International Golf Course in Florida, Communications Deputy Director Margo Martin shared in a Monday post to X/Twitter.

"President @realDonaldTrump and Sara Netanyahu having dinner at Trump International Golf Course tonight," Martine wrote in the post.

Sara Netanyahu had traveled to Miami last week, where she was expected to remain for 20 days. She was set to return to Israel in mid-December. 

Netanyahu's son, Yair, is currently in Miami and has been living there since March 2023. 

Netanyahu was expected to remain in Florida as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was set to testify in his criminal trials next week. 

On Sunday, Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara stated there was no legal reason to declare the prime minister as unable to serve during his testimony and ruled that his testimony would start next week. 

Netanyahu's relationship with Trump

Prime Minister Netanyahu reportedly has a good relationship with Trump.

Following the US elections on November 5 and Trump's victory, Netanyahu called it "history’s greatest comeback!" He further noted he had spoken several times with the president-elect, noting the two were aligned on various topics of importance to Israel.
