The Rosenberg Report | Joel Rosenberg: US-Iran Deal | The Rosenberg Report | June 18, 2026
  • Tonight, on the rosenberg report,
  • 00:00:01.624 --> 00:00:03.126
  • President trump strikes a deal with iran to end the war.
  • 00:00:03.126 --> 00:00:06.296
  • But many americans, israelis and those in the arab world
  • 00:00:06.296 --> 00:00:09.566
  • Are not happy.
  • 00:00:09.566 --> 00:00:10.733
  • As specifics emerge, what will be
  • 00:00:10.733 --> 00:00:12.502
  • The political impact of the war and the deal this fall,
  • 00:00:12.502 --> 00:00:16.005
  • When americans go to the polls for the all important
  • 00:00:16.005 --> 00:00:18.608
  • Congressional midterm elections?
  • 00:00:18.608 --> 00:00:20.343
  • Will they love the deal and reward republicans,
  • 00:00:20.343 --> 00:00:22.879
  • Or is the gop
  • 00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:24.013
  • Facing a wipeout in the house and maybe the senate?
  • 00:00:24.013 --> 00:00:26.716
  • And what will be the political impact in israel?
  • 00:00:26.716 --> 00:00:29.285
  • Polls show
  • 00:00:29.285 --> 00:00:30.520
  • Benjamin netanyahu and his right wing coalition are in trouble.
  • 00:00:30.520 --> 00:00:33.089
  • The opposition is gaining ground,
  • 00:00:33.089 --> 00:00:34.924
  • And there are now three israeli leaders competing to replace
  • 00:00:34.924 --> 00:00:38.461
  • Bibi netanyahu as prime minister.
  • 00:00:38.461 --> 00:00:40.663
  • Can netanyahu turn things around?
  • 00:00:40.663 --> 00:00:42.499
  • And is it time for christians to start planning to come back
  • 00:00:42.499 --> 00:00:45.602
  • To israel soon, including for our 2027 epicenter summit?
  • 00:00:45.602 --> 00:00:50.573
  • In a very dramatic week.
  • 00:00:50.573 --> 00:00:51.941
  • It's a very full show and it all starts
  • 00:00:51.941 --> 00:00:54.210
  • Right here, right now on the rosenberg report.
  • 00:00:54.210 --> 00:01:06.789
  • I'm very happy to
  • 00:01:07.223 --> 00:01:09.826
  • Say very, very signed.
  • 00:01:09.826 --> 00:01:12.795
  • The deal's off site
  • 00:01:12.795 --> 00:01:13.930
  • And the strait is already partially opened.
  • 00:01:13.930 --> 00:01:16.699
  • As you know,
  • 00:01:16.699 --> 00:01:17.800
  • They're doing a little hunting for a couple of mines
  • 00:01:17.800 --> 00:01:21.938
  • They've already found,
  • 00:01:22.405 --> 00:01:24.641
  • But it's essentially ships are starting to go out now.
  • 00:01:24.641 --> 00:01:28.278
  • On friday, it'll be completely opened.
  • 00:01:28.278 --> 00:01:30.446
  • We got along very well with iran.
  • 00:01:30.446 --> 00:01:33.316
  • It's a different set of leaders.
  • 00:01:33.316 --> 00:01:35.285
  • As you know, the first set is gone.
  • 00:01:35.285 --> 00:01:37.020
  • The second set is gone.
  • 00:01:37.020 --> 00:01:38.521
  • And we found the third set to be very smart, strong,
  • 00:01:38.521 --> 00:01:42.725
  • Very smart.
  • 00:01:42.725 --> 00:01:43.459
  • But we ended up making a deal.
  • 00:01:43.459 --> 00:01:47.397
  • I felt badly that we had to go back on the attack
  • 00:01:47.397 --> 00:01:49.732
  • For two nights,
  • 00:01:49.732 --> 00:01:50.967
  • And i thought it third, but we made it before that happened.
  • 00:01:50.967 --> 00:01:54.804
  • But i think a lot of great things are going to happen
  • 00:01:54.804 --> 00:01:57.607
  • In the middle east right now.
  • 00:01:57.607 --> 00:01:58.741
  • And very importantly, the oil is plummeting down
  • 00:01:58.741 --> 00:02:02.679
  • And the stock market is shooting up like a rocket.
  • 00:02:02.679 --> 00:02:07.283
  • Could president trump get the deal he wants and claim
  • 00:02:07.283 --> 00:02:11.487
  • To have won this war with iran and still lose his political
  • 00:02:11.487 --> 00:02:15.925
  • War of the democrats?
  • 00:02:15.925 --> 00:02:16.859
  • Is it possible
  • 00:02:16.859 --> 00:02:18.094
  • That republicans get wiped out in the house of representatives?
  • 00:02:18.094 --> 00:02:22.398
  • Maybe in the senate?
  • 00:02:22.398 --> 00:02:23.666
  • Could trump and the republicans lose control of each
  • 00:02:23.666 --> 00:02:28.371
  • Or both parts of congress?
  • 00:02:28.371 --> 00:02:30.406
  • And it would be a
  • 00:02:30.406 --> 00:02:31.874
  • Devastating political defeat this fall in the midterm
  • 00:02:31.874 --> 00:02:35.445
  • Elections.
  • 00:02:35.445 --> 00:02:36.279
  • And if that weren't enough, could
  • 00:02:36.279 --> 00:02:37.880
  • Israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu
  • 00:02:37.880 --> 00:02:39.582
  • Have done serious damage to the iranian regime,
  • 00:02:39.582 --> 00:02:42.218
  • Hezbollah, to hamas,
  • 00:02:42.218 --> 00:02:43.620
  • And in many ways feel like he has done
  • 00:02:43.620 --> 00:02:46.556
  • What he wanted to do, even if he wanted to do more,
  • 00:02:46.556 --> 00:02:49.425
  • But he could he end up being wiped out.
  • 00:02:49.425 --> 00:02:51.761
  • He and his likud party and his right wing governing
  • 00:02:51.761 --> 00:02:54.931
  • Coalition, could they be wiped out in this fall's
  • 00:02:54.931 --> 00:02:59.002
  • National elections in israel?
  • 00:02:59.002 --> 00:03:02.238
  • Good evening, and welcome to the rosenberg report.
  • 00:03:02.238 --> 00:03:04.874
  • I'm on capitol hill tonight.
  • 00:03:04.874 --> 00:03:06.476
  • I'm in washington to assess these two questions,
  • 00:03:06.476 --> 00:03:10.079
  • Because for every anything else you're hearing.
  • 00:03:10.079 --> 00:03:12.882
  • Deal? no deal.
  • 00:03:12.882 --> 00:03:14.050
  • Good deal, bad deal. in the end,
  • 00:03:14.050 --> 00:03:16.919
  • President trump,
  • 00:03:17.320 --> 00:03:18.421
  • Prime minister netanyahu
  • 00:03:18.421 --> 00:03:19.489
  • Are going to be assessed as as the dust clears
  • 00:03:19.489 --> 00:03:23.459
  • From physical fighting, kinetic fighting and from deal making,
  • 00:03:23.459 --> 00:03:27.897
  • They're going to be assessed on whether the american people
  • 00:03:27.897 --> 00:03:30.500
  • Think this is a good deal.
  • 00:03:30.500 --> 00:03:32.201
  • We got what we needed. we did what we had to do.
  • 00:03:32.201 --> 00:03:34.737
  • President trump,
  • 00:03:34.737 --> 00:03:35.872
  • I may not agree with you on everything, but good job,
  • 00:03:35.872 --> 00:03:38.641
  • Excellent work.
  • 00:03:38.641 --> 00:03:39.575
  • Or are they going to say when the world.
  • 00:03:39.575 --> 00:03:41.377
  • Why would why, why did you make those concessions?
  • 00:03:41.377 --> 00:03:44.013
  • Why did you you know,
  • 00:03:44.013 --> 00:03:45.248
  • Why didn't you use your strength of hitting iran so hard
  • 00:03:45.248 --> 00:03:48.451
  • And finish the job?
  • 00:03:48.451 --> 00:03:49.419
  • And these are big questions. okay.
  • 00:03:49.419 --> 00:03:52.055
  • And the same thing for netanyahu.
  • 00:03:52.055 --> 00:03:53.623
  • Netanyahu doesn't have freedom of action, right?
  • 00:03:53.623 --> 00:03:56.259
  • He's a super close ally of president trump.
  • 00:03:56.259 --> 00:03:58.895
  • But president trump, you have to know this.
  • 00:03:58.895 --> 00:04:02.065
  • A couple
  • 00:04:02.332 --> 00:04:03.499
  • Of weeks ago was dropping more f-bombs on bibi netanyahu
  • 00:04:03.499 --> 00:04:06.769
  • Than he was actual bombs on the iranian regime.
  • 00:04:06.769 --> 00:04:10.239
  • That caused me some serious pause,
  • 00:04:10.239 --> 00:04:13.876
  • And it raises some serious questions.
  • 00:04:13.876 --> 00:04:15.745
  • President trump, why?
  • 00:04:15.745 --> 00:04:16.979
  • Why are you beating up on your best ally in the middle east?
  • 00:04:16.979 --> 00:04:21.818
  • If you guys have disagreements,
  • 00:04:21.818 --> 00:04:22.852
  • Why are you letting your team leak this stuff?
  • 00:04:22.852 --> 00:04:25.288
  • Why are you dropping f bombs on netanyahu and not actual bombs
  • 00:04:25.288 --> 00:04:30.126
  • And missiles on the actual enemy?
  • 00:04:30.126 --> 00:04:33.496
  • So these are big questions, and the polls show right now
  • 00:04:33.496 --> 00:04:38.434
  • That trump and the republicans are in danger.
  • 00:04:38.434 --> 00:04:40.837
  • They're in real trouble here on capitol
  • 00:04:40.837 --> 00:04:42.705
  • Hill of losing control, at least of the house.
  • 00:04:42.705 --> 00:04:45.975
  • It's possible
  • 00:04:46.342 --> 00:04:47.410
  • Republicans could lose control of the senate as well,
  • 00:04:47.410 --> 00:04:50.380
  • But that seems a little less likely.
  • 00:04:50.380 --> 00:04:53.282
  • But right now,
  • 00:04:53.282 --> 00:04:54.484
  • Americans are not happy with president trump's performance.
  • 00:04:54.484 --> 00:04:57.520
  • They are not happy with the price of gas.
  • 00:04:57.520 --> 00:05:00.089
  • Okay.
  • 00:05:00.089 --> 00:05:01.124
  • Yes, the price of gas was higher under joe biden.
  • 00:05:01.124 --> 00:05:03.292
  • Absolutely. tremendously higher.
  • 00:05:03.292 --> 00:05:05.461
  • And yes, the price of gas was higher when trump took office.
  • 00:05:05.461 --> 00:05:09.699
  • But but and then, of course, the price of gas plummeted
  • 00:05:09.699 --> 00:05:13.936
  • Under trump.
  • 00:05:13.936 --> 00:05:15.071
  • But with this operation, epic theory and the tensions
  • 00:05:15.071 --> 00:05:18.474
  • And the volatility in the middle east,
  • 00:05:18.474 --> 00:05:20.276
  • In the gulf in particular,
  • 00:05:20.276 --> 00:05:21.644
  • Gas prices have risen because prices have risen.
  • 00:05:21.644 --> 00:05:24.447
  • Right.
  • 00:05:24.447 --> 00:05:25.014
  • And so people see that.
  • 00:05:25.014 --> 00:05:27.216
  • They feel that.
  • 00:05:27.216 --> 00:05:28.618
  • And that has the polls showing
  • 00:05:28.618 --> 00:05:32.422
  • That americans are not happy with president trump.
  • 00:05:32.422 --> 00:05:35.458
  • So the question about why is trump working so hard?
  • 00:05:35.458 --> 00:05:40.196
  • Why has he been trying feverishly
  • 00:05:40.196 --> 00:05:42.298
  • To get a deal with iran and telling us over and over
  • 00:05:42.298 --> 00:05:45.501
  • And over and over again, it's imminent.
  • 00:05:45.501 --> 00:05:47.170
  • It's almost there. we almost got them.
  • 00:05:47.170 --> 00:05:49.806
  • They want they want to deal even more than i do.
  • 00:05:49.806 --> 00:05:52.408
  • But there's been so much of that that has caused
  • 00:05:52.408 --> 00:05:56.179
  • A lot of americans, a lot of republicans,
  • 00:05:56.179 --> 00:05:59.215
  • A lot of conservatives, a lot of evangelicals to
  • 00:05:59.215 --> 00:06:02.084
  • Question is trump to desperate for a deal with iran.
  • 00:06:02.084 --> 00:06:06.255
  • Now, the here's the point.
  • 00:06:06.255 --> 00:06:08.958
  • The point is not how people feel today.
  • 00:06:08.958 --> 00:06:11.494
  • I mean, that's important, but the question is,
  • 00:06:11.494 --> 00:06:13.863
  • How are they
  • 00:06:13.863 --> 00:06:14.997
  • Going to feel in november when they go to the polls?
  • 00:06:14.997 --> 00:06:16.732
  • Right. and it's not just republicans.
  • 00:06:16.732 --> 00:06:18.501
  • I mean, the democrats hate trump already.
  • 00:06:18.501 --> 00:06:21.003
  • They hate the war with iran.
  • 00:06:21.003 --> 00:06:22.605
  • They don't see it even having been necessary.
  • 00:06:22.605 --> 00:06:24.774
  • They don't think he's handled it well.
  • 00:06:24.774 --> 00:06:26.175
  • They don't think he's handled the economy well.
  • 00:06:26.175 --> 00:06:27.643
  • But what do we expect. right.
  • 00:06:27.643 --> 00:06:28.978
  • So but but independence also are against trump
  • 00:06:28.978 --> 00:06:33.049
  • On the war with iran.
  • 00:06:33.049 --> 00:06:34.417
  • They're against trump on the economy, on gas prices.
  • 00:06:34.417 --> 00:06:37.620
  • And that's the key, right.
  • 00:06:37.620 --> 00:06:39.689
  • Republicans are starting
  • 00:06:39.689 --> 00:06:41.724
  • To turn against trump on some of these issues,
  • 00:06:41.724 --> 00:06:43.893
  • Not massive numbers.
  • 00:06:43.893 --> 00:06:45.561
  • Trump is still over well over 70% in his support,
  • 00:06:45.561 --> 00:06:48.664
  • But it has that support among
  • 00:06:48.664 --> 00:06:50.666
  • Republicans for the war in iran has declined in recent weeks.
  • 00:06:50.666 --> 00:06:54.604
  • I think that's spooking president trump.
  • 00:06:54.604 --> 00:06:56.839
  • And of course, gas prices.
  • 00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:58.407
  • There's another element,
  • 00:06:58.407 --> 00:06:59.742
  • Because people keep asking me, as i've been traveling around
  • 00:06:59.742 --> 00:07:02.011
  • And i've been traveling around the united states,
  • 00:07:02.011 --> 00:07:03.613
  • Speaking at churches, meeting
  • 00:07:03.613 --> 00:07:05.014
  • With joshua fund and all israel news donors and so forth,
  • 00:07:05.014 --> 00:07:08.918
  • And meeting with evangelical leaders.
  • 00:07:08.918 --> 00:07:10.419
  • And people keep asking me, why does trump seem so
  • 00:07:10.419 --> 00:07:13.556
  • Eager, almost
  • 00:07:13.923 --> 00:07:15.057
  • Anxious, almost desperate to make a deal with iran?
  • 00:07:15.057 --> 00:07:18.461
  • Doesn't even understand that how much iran has been doing
  • 00:07:18.461 --> 00:07:21.130
  • To attack ships in the gulf and fire 30 ballistic missiles
  • 00:07:21.130 --> 00:07:25.701
  • Or more at israel, and and encourage hezbollah
  • 00:07:25.701 --> 00:07:29.138
  • To keep attacking israel from lebanon and so forth.
  • 00:07:29.138 --> 00:07:32.408
  • Doesn't he see all this?
  • 00:07:32.408 --> 00:07:34.143
  • Doesn't he see all the rhetoric?
  • 00:07:34.143 --> 00:07:35.645
  • And why does he think he could trust
  • 00:07:35.645 --> 00:07:38.314
  • What's left of the iranian regime,
  • 00:07:38.314 --> 00:07:40.049
  • The original iranian regime that we were dealing with?
  • 00:07:40.049 --> 00:07:42.018
  • They're all burning in hell now,
  • 00:07:42.018 --> 00:07:43.386
  • But all their underlings are negotiating this thing. why?
  • 00:07:43.386 --> 00:07:47.823
  • Why would president trump think that he could make this deal?
  • 00:07:47.823 --> 00:07:50.726
  • Isn't he making a deal with the devil?
  • 00:07:50.726 --> 00:07:53.062
  • And i think the president really is genuinely worried about
  • 00:07:53.062 --> 00:07:56.966
  • Whether he's he and the republican party
  • 00:07:56.966 --> 00:07:58.968
  • Can control congress going forward.
  • 00:07:58.968 --> 00:08:00.770
  • Because if he doesn't, if he loses control of the house,
  • 00:08:00.770 --> 00:08:04.407
  • Not only will his entire legislative agenda
  • 00:08:04.407 --> 00:08:07.810
  • Be shut down, but...
  • 00:08:07.810 --> 00:08:11.080
  • Democrats will be in charge of every committee.
  • 00:08:11.080 --> 00:08:13.249
  • They can start investigating
  • 00:08:13.249 --> 00:08:14.383
  • Anything and everything they want.
  • 00:08:14.383 --> 00:08:15.885
  • They could try to impeach him again.
  • 00:08:15.885 --> 00:08:18.054
  • They can stop budget bills that will fund all of trump's
  • 00:08:18.054 --> 00:08:21.891
  • Initiatives. it's a big deal. okay.
  • 00:08:21.891 --> 00:08:24.794
  • And if he loses control of the senate to then then he's in,
  • 00:08:24.794 --> 00:08:28.497
  • Then he really is a lame duck in many ways
  • 00:08:28.497 --> 00:08:31.334
  • Over the next couple of years.
  • 00:08:31.334 --> 00:08:32.768
  • And it will be very, very challenging for
  • 00:08:32.768 --> 00:08:35.805
  • Whoever is going to emerge as the republican nominee
  • 00:08:35.805 --> 00:08:38.374
  • Running for president. is that jd vance?
  • 00:08:38.374 --> 00:08:40.142
  • Is that marco rubio? is that somebody else?
  • 00:08:40.142 --> 00:08:42.445
  • Is it a contested primary?
  • 00:08:42.445 --> 00:08:43.980
  • Those are big questions.
  • 00:08:43.980 --> 00:08:45.581
  • Trump wants to go in.
  • 00:08:45.581 --> 00:08:47.216
  • Trump wants to come through
  • 00:08:47.216 --> 00:08:48.217
  • The midterm elections with strength.
  • 00:08:48.217 --> 00:08:50.052
  • He wants to get the iran issue behind him.
  • 00:08:50.052 --> 00:08:52.488
  • It's not just republican anxiety over the war
  • 00:08:52.488 --> 00:08:55.491
  • And independent anxiety over the war and gas prices.
  • 00:08:55.491 --> 00:08:58.861
  • Those are not the only issues weighing on trump.
  • 00:08:58.861 --> 00:09:00.963
  • The other major issue
  • 00:09:00.963 --> 00:09:02.264
  • Which no one is talking about
  • 00:09:02.264 --> 00:09:03.733
  • Is, is it possible that the united states and israel
  • 00:09:03.733 --> 00:09:07.903
  • And our arab allies don't have enough
  • 00:09:07.903 --> 00:09:11.741
  • Missile and rocket interceptors to shoot down
  • 00:09:11.741 --> 00:09:15.011
  • What's left of iran's missile capacity?
  • 00:09:15.011 --> 00:09:18.648
  • What if what if trump hasn't been fighting aggressively
  • 00:09:18.648 --> 00:09:23.452
  • And just punishing and destroying and vanquishing
  • 00:09:23.452 --> 00:09:27.923
  • Iran's military assets and trying to get a deal
  • 00:09:27.923 --> 00:09:31.160
  • Because he fears that
  • 00:09:31.160 --> 00:09:32.928
  • If iran starts launching all kinds of more missiles
  • 00:09:32.928 --> 00:09:36.098
  • At the united states,
  • 00:09:36.098 --> 00:09:37.133
  • At our troops in the region, at israel, at our arab
  • 00:09:37.133 --> 00:09:40.302
  • Allies, that we don't have enough missile
  • 00:09:40.302 --> 00:09:42.972
  • Interceptors to shoot them down and that the
  • 00:09:42.972 --> 00:09:45.007
  • The effect could be,
  • 00:09:45.007 --> 00:09:46.208
  • Could make the war look much more devastating
  • 00:09:46.208 --> 00:09:48.477
  • Going forward than so far.
  • 00:09:48.477 --> 00:09:50.613
  • These are big questions.
  • 00:09:50.613 --> 00:09:52.648
  • And i and i think all of it is in the mix.
  • 00:09:52.648 --> 00:09:55.985
  • I am not comfortable
  • 00:09:55.985 --> 00:09:57.186
  • With where the president is, but he has done
  • 00:09:57.186 --> 00:09:59.855
  • Some significant things right.
  • 00:09:59.855 --> 00:10:01.624
  • Let's talk about it when we get back.
  • 00:10:01.624 --> 00:10:04.060
  • Coming up next on the rosenberg report, as israelis assess
  • 00:10:04.060 --> 00:10:07.863
  • The results of the war
  • 00:10:07.863 --> 00:10:09.098
  • With iran and its proxies, what will be the political impact
  • 00:10:09.098 --> 00:10:12.702
  • When elections are held this fall?
  • 00:10:12.702 --> 00:10:14.637
  • Polls show
  • 00:10:14.637 --> 00:10:15.871
  • Benjamin netanyahu and his right wing coalition are in trouble.
  • 00:10:15.871 --> 00:10:18.474
  • The opposition is gaining ground,
  • 00:10:18.474 --> 00:10:20.376
  • And there are now three israeli
  • 00:10:20.376 --> 00:10:22.144
  • Leaders competing to replace bibi as prime minister.
  • 00:10:22.144 --> 00:10:26.015
  • Netanyahu turned things around.
  • 00:10:26.015 --> 00:10:27.616
  • And is it time for christians to start planning to come back
  • 00:10:27.616 --> 00:10:31.020
  • To israel soon, including for our 2027 epicenter summit?
  • 00:10:31.020 --> 00:10:35.691
  • Find out when the rosenberg report continues on tbn right
  • 00:10:35.691 --> 00:10:39.462
  • After the break.
  • 00:10:39.462 --> 00:10:42.007
  • After the break.
  • 00:10:42.007 --> 00:10:46.669
  • Why is president trump
  • 00:10:47.136 --> 00:10:50.206
  • So willing to make a deal with his iranian regime?
  • 00:10:50.206 --> 00:10:53.242
  • What's left of it?
  • 00:10:53.242 --> 00:10:54.577
  • Why does he think this deal is so fantastic?
  • 00:10:54.577 --> 00:10:57.646
  • I'm pretty skeptical, and i'm not the only one.
  • 00:10:58.647 --> 00:11:00.983
  • And and i'm here on capitol hill. why?
  • 00:11:00.983 --> 00:11:03.452
  • Because there's going to be a referendum on this deal.
  • 00:11:03.452 --> 00:11:06.355
  • And president trump's handling of foreign policy generally,
  • 00:11:06.355 --> 00:11:10.926
  • The iran war, in particular us-israel relations
  • 00:11:10.926 --> 00:11:14.997
  • And the economy and and gas prices,
  • 00:11:14.997 --> 00:11:18.167
  • All of that is going to be assessed.
  • 00:11:18.167 --> 00:11:20.035
  • It's up for referendum this fall, right?
  • 00:11:20.035 --> 00:11:23.139
  • When republicans and democrats
  • 00:11:23.139 --> 00:11:25.141
  • Go to the polls in november and decide who's
  • 00:11:25.141 --> 00:11:28.077
  • Going to control this chamber, right.
  • 00:11:28.077 --> 00:11:29.545
  • Who's going to control
  • 00:11:29.545 --> 00:11:30.579
  • The legislature, who's going to control the house
  • 00:11:30.579 --> 00:11:31.881
  • Of representatives, who's going to control the senate?
  • 00:11:31.881 --> 00:11:34.583
  • And even if if americans were like, woo hoo!
  • 00:11:34.583 --> 00:11:38.687
  • This is a this is the greatest deal we've ever seen.
  • 00:11:38.687 --> 00:11:40.823
  • President trump, iraq, even if they said that right now.
  • 00:11:40.823 --> 00:11:43.793
  • And they're not saying that.
  • 00:11:43.793 --> 00:11:45.461
  • But even if they did say that, would that hold up
  • 00:11:45.461 --> 00:11:49.031
  • Through july
  • 00:11:49.365 --> 00:11:50.332
  • Through august through
  • 00:11:50.332 --> 00:11:51.300
  • September through october 2nd, election day,
  • 00:11:51.300 --> 00:11:54.603
  • Since they're not saying that right now
  • 00:11:54.603 --> 00:11:57.006
  • And a lot more can play out?
  • 00:11:57.006 --> 00:11:58.808
  • Yes. maybe over time it'll look like.
  • 00:11:58.808 --> 00:12:01.043
  • Yeah, things really are quiet.
  • 00:12:01.043 --> 00:12:02.678
  • Trump was right.
  • 00:12:02.678 --> 00:12:04.580
  • He made the deal that needed to get made
  • 00:12:05.381 --> 00:12:08.584
  • So that the middle east would quiet down.
  • 00:12:08.584 --> 00:12:11.020
  • Maybe we'll start to see a series of peace deals.
  • 00:12:11.020 --> 00:12:13.889
  • Maybe we'll see
  • 00:12:13.889 --> 00:12:15.291
  • Prime minister netanyahu and others ready to go.
  • 00:12:15.291 --> 00:12:17.259
  • You know what?
  • 00:12:17.259 --> 00:12:18.494
  • We were skeptical at first, but it's turned out pretty good.
  • 00:12:18.494 --> 00:12:20.963
  • We're happy.
  • 00:12:20.963 --> 00:12:21.964
  • That's possible, and we should pray for that.
  • 00:12:21.964 --> 00:12:25.000
  • But i think it's also possible that not only that,
  • 00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:28.103
  • Starting with americans and members
  • 00:12:28.103 --> 00:12:30.206
  • Of congress, including republicans,
  • 00:12:30.206 --> 00:12:32.174
  • Are going to get uncomfortable with this deal.
  • 00:12:32.174 --> 00:12:34.043
  • I think it's possible that iran breaks this deal,
  • 00:12:34.043 --> 00:12:36.412
  • That hezbollah breaks this deal, that hamas
  • 00:12:36.412 --> 00:12:39.915
  • Starts firing at israel again.
  • 00:12:40.516 --> 00:12:43.185
  • I think there's some concerns here that.
  • 00:12:43.185 --> 00:12:47.323
  • A month from now, two months from now, three months from now,
  • 00:12:48.490 --> 00:12:51.327
  • This deal looks worse
  • 00:12:51.327 --> 00:12:53.762
  • Than even at skeptics think of it at the moment.
  • 00:12:53.762 --> 00:12:57.533
  • So these are big issues, okay?
  • 00:12:57.533 --> 00:12:59.435
  • These are big issues.
  • 00:12:59.435 --> 00:13:00.336
  • The polls are not show that the republicans
  • 00:13:00.336 --> 00:13:02.805
  • Are going to hold the house of representatives this fall.
  • 00:13:02.805 --> 00:13:05.608
  • That could happen though. right.
  • 00:13:05.608 --> 00:13:07.243
  • And with the redistricting and and a strong campaign come
  • 00:13:07.243 --> 00:13:11.213
  • Starting after a labor day, things could tighten.
  • 00:13:11.213 --> 00:13:13.582
  • The republicans have a lot of money.
  • 00:13:13.582 --> 00:13:15.017
  • So i'm just saying that this deal and its effects
  • 00:13:15.017 --> 00:13:19.021
  • On how people perceive trump and how they see republicans
  • 00:13:19.021 --> 00:13:22.925
  • Who support trump, this is going to be a big factor, okay.
  • 00:13:22.925 --> 00:13:26.161
  • And there is a possibility of a blowout that the economy
  • 00:13:26.161 --> 00:13:30.766
  • Will not be doing well
  • 00:13:30.766 --> 00:13:32.034
  • And that people will take out their frustration on republicans
  • 00:13:32.034 --> 00:13:36.438
  • In the house and possibly even the senate, to send
  • 00:13:36.438 --> 00:13:39.975
  • Their message of massive displeasure to president trump.
  • 00:13:39.975 --> 00:13:43.412
  • And he could lose control of the legislative agenda
  • 00:13:43.412 --> 00:13:46.882
  • As he loses control of of the actual
  • 00:13:46.882 --> 00:13:49.251
  • Running of the house and possibly the senate.
  • 00:13:49.251 --> 00:13:51.253
  • So i'm not predicting that.
  • 00:13:51.253 --> 00:13:52.922
  • I want to be clear. i'm not predicting that.
  • 00:13:52.922 --> 00:13:54.523
  • But i'm saying this this inflection point
  • 00:13:54.523 --> 00:13:57.593
  • This week is a big factor in how that plays out in november.
  • 00:13:57.593 --> 00:14:01.797
  • Now, if you look at israel, prime minister netanyahu, almost
  • 00:14:01.797 --> 00:14:05.167
  • Every poll shows that he does not have a route back
  • 00:14:05.167 --> 00:14:08.537
  • Him and his coalition to remain in governing mode.
  • 00:14:08.537 --> 00:14:12.641
  • Right.
  • 00:14:12.641 --> 00:14:13.776
  • There's only one poll of a right wing sort of fox news
  • 00:14:13.776 --> 00:14:18.247
  • At almost a newsmax esque network in israel cable network.
  • 00:14:18.247 --> 00:14:22.017
  • They have a poll that's consistently
  • 00:14:22.017 --> 00:14:23.686
  • Showing netanyahu and his center right coming back to power.
  • 00:14:23.686 --> 00:14:27.656
  • That could be true.
  • 00:14:27.656 --> 00:14:28.857
  • But every other poll, every other poll said that's not true.
  • 00:14:28.857 --> 00:14:33.395
  • And the question is whether the opposition can coalesce
  • 00:14:33.395 --> 00:14:38.100
  • Not just left wing opposition and not just centrist
  • 00:14:38.100 --> 00:14:40.402
  • Opposition, but right wing opposition.
  • 00:14:40.402 --> 00:14:42.738
  • Also,
  • 00:14:42.738 --> 00:14:44.306
  • They are
  • 00:14:44.573 --> 00:14:45.107
  • Working on building
  • 00:14:45.107 --> 00:14:46.575
  • A coalition together to bring out to take down
  • 00:14:46.575 --> 00:14:49.645
  • Netanyahu and create a national unity government.
  • 00:14:49.645 --> 00:14:53.515
  • Now, right now,
  • 00:14:53.515 --> 00:14:55.918
  • Depending on the week, depending on the poll,
  • 00:14:55.918 --> 00:14:57.619
  • Sometimes the opposition
  • 00:14:57.619 --> 00:14:59.521
  • Overall, if they get their act together
  • 00:14:59.521 --> 00:15:00.856
  • And they work together, they could get 61, 62, 63 seats.
  • 00:15:00.856 --> 00:15:05.260
  • Other polls show them 56, 57, 58, 59.
  • 00:15:05.260 --> 00:15:08.263
  • You have to get at least 61 seats of the 120 seats in the
  • 00:15:08.263 --> 00:15:12.768
  • Knesset to gain a majority and put together a government.
  • 00:15:12.768 --> 00:15:18.040
  • So the question is, can the opposition do it now?
  • 00:15:18.040 --> 00:15:20.976
  • As you know,
  • 00:15:20.976 --> 00:15:22.011
  • If you're watching this
  • 00:15:22.011 --> 00:15:23.212
  • Rosenberg report this spring, i interviewed naftali bennett,
  • 00:15:23.212 --> 00:15:27.182
  • The once and possibly future prime minister of israel,
  • 00:15:27.182 --> 00:15:29.718
  • The guy who knocked out politically bibi netanyahu
  • 00:15:29.718 --> 00:15:33.522
  • Several years ago and has seemed like he's the guy
  • 00:15:33.522 --> 00:15:36.859
  • If if the opposition can do it at all,
  • 00:15:36.859 --> 00:15:38.894
  • Naftali bennett would be the next prime minister.
  • 00:15:38.894 --> 00:15:40.896
  • And as we talked, he was riding high in the polls.
  • 00:15:40.896 --> 00:15:43.699
  • And just days after we did my interview
  • 00:15:43.699 --> 00:15:46.902
  • Along the tel aviv seashore, what happened?
  • 00:15:46.902 --> 00:15:50.239
  • He created a political alliance
  • 00:15:50.239 --> 00:15:51.974
  • With a centrist party, and they shot up even higher.
  • 00:15:51.974 --> 00:15:54.676
  • And they seemed like the dominant political party.
  • 00:15:54.676 --> 00:15:57.780
  • And it seemed like netanyahu was really in
  • 00:15:57.780 --> 00:16:00.816
  • For some serious political trouble,
  • 00:16:00.816 --> 00:16:02.785
  • And that naftali bennett
  • 00:16:02.785 --> 00:16:03.919
  • Was going to be the next prime minister.
  • 00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:05.254
  • However, that was weeks ago.
  • 00:16:05.254 --> 00:16:07.890
  • A lot has changed since that high mark, that joint party,
  • 00:16:07.890 --> 00:16:12.194
  • Which is known as in hebrew,
  • 00:16:12.194 --> 00:16:14.163
  • Which means together, this idea
  • 00:16:14.163 --> 00:16:15.697
  • Of pulling all of the opposition forces right, center left,
  • 00:16:15.697 --> 00:16:19.435
  • Together with naftali bennett at the lead,
  • 00:16:19.435 --> 00:16:23.005
  • That party has started bleeding out
  • 00:16:23.005 --> 00:16:26.708
  • Political support.
  • 00:16:27.142 --> 00:16:28.277
  • Voters started moving,
  • 00:16:28.277 --> 00:16:29.611
  • Shifting away from bennett and that together party.
  • 00:16:29.611 --> 00:16:33.582
  • And they started separating themselves from together.
  • 00:16:33.582 --> 00:16:36.652
  • Okay.
  • 00:16:36.652 --> 00:16:37.853
  • About another vote to accumulate to about one seat a week.
  • 00:16:37.853 --> 00:16:41.490
  • Now where have those seats going
  • 00:16:41.490 --> 00:16:43.926
  • Or where are those votes going?
  • 00:16:43.926 --> 00:16:45.527
  • They're going to another ally of naftali bennett and
  • 00:16:45.527 --> 00:16:49.631
  • A former idf, israeli defense forces chief of staff
  • 00:16:50.699 --> 00:16:53.902
  • Named gadi.
  • 00:16:53.902 --> 00:16:55.404
  • Now, gadi is a very interesting political figure
  • 00:16:55.404 --> 00:16:57.973
  • That we'll look at more and hopefully we can even do
  • 00:16:57.973 --> 00:17:00.075
  • An interview later this summer or fall.
  • 00:17:00.075 --> 00:17:02.277
  • I've met with him, i've gotten to know him.
  • 00:17:02.277 --> 00:17:04.680
  • I'm watching him closely and i'll talk to you more about him.
  • 00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:07.449
  • The key, though, is this he has been going in his party
  • 00:17:07.449 --> 00:17:11.753
  • From about 11 or 12 seats.
  • 00:17:11.753 --> 00:17:14.690
  • They've been clicking up about
  • 00:17:14.690 --> 00:17:16.125
  • One seat a week
  • 00:17:16.125 --> 00:17:17.392
  • Throughout the spring and summer,
  • 00:17:17.392 --> 00:17:19.128
  • And now they're depending on the poll,
  • 00:17:19.128 --> 00:17:20.896
  • Depending on the week 18, 19, 20, 21 seats
  • 00:17:20.896 --> 00:17:25.033
  • In some polls now have bennett and his coalition party
  • 00:17:25.033 --> 00:17:28.604
  • Together,
  • 00:17:28.604 --> 00:17:29.838
  • Together, you know, neck and neck with gadi eisenkot
  • 00:17:29.838 --> 00:17:33.142
  • Could gadi eisenkot
  • 00:17:33.142 --> 00:17:34.343
  • Become the next prime minister of israel.
  • 00:17:34.343 --> 00:17:37.079
  • If the opposition gets enough seats, will he say
  • 00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:41.416
  • To his colleagues, look,
  • 00:17:41.416 --> 00:17:43.385
  • You know,
  • 00:17:43.385 --> 00:17:45.087
  • I know you're a good man and i want to work with you,
  • 00:17:43.952 --> 00:17:46.155
  • But i'm the one that's been on the rise.
  • 00:17:46.155 --> 00:17:47.856
  • The public wants me.
  • 00:17:47.856 --> 00:17:49.158
  • And in fact, in head to head matches between netanyahu and
  • 00:17:49.158 --> 00:17:52.661
  • Eisenkot, is emerging
  • 00:17:53.162 --> 00:17:54.363
  • As the guy that people want to be the prime minister.
  • 00:17:54.363 --> 00:17:57.432
  • Head to head naftali bennett versus bibi netanyahu.
  • 00:17:57.432 --> 00:18:02.171
  • Netanyahu has actually been doing better in recent weeks.
  • 00:18:02.171 --> 00:18:05.040
  • One more name that you need to know about.
  • 00:18:05.040 --> 00:18:06.942
  • We're not going to get into
  • 00:18:06.942 --> 00:18:08.010
  • All the details right now, but avigdor lieberman
  • 00:18:08.010 --> 00:18:10.812
  • Liberman was known as a russian immigrant.
  • 00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:15.117
  • He's a right winger.
  • 00:18:15.117 --> 00:18:16.451
  • He opposes giving away judea and samaria.
  • 00:18:16.451 --> 00:18:19.321
  • He opposes this iran deal.
  • 00:18:19.321 --> 00:18:21.156
  • And he is saying that he wants to be the next prime
  • 00:18:21.156 --> 00:18:25.260
  • Minister and his party,
  • 00:18:25.260 --> 00:18:31.333
  • Is at about 8 or 9 seats.
  • 00:18:31.333 --> 00:18:35.170
  • And so there is some discussion now, even if naftali bennett
  • 00:18:35.170 --> 00:18:40.008
  • And his team and gadi and his team,
  • 00:18:40.008 --> 00:18:43.078
  • Even if they combine forces, they're still going to need
  • 00:18:43.078 --> 00:18:46.281
  • Avigdor liberman
  • 00:18:46.281 --> 00:18:47.516
  • And liberman might say, i'm happy
  • 00:18:47.516 --> 00:18:49.284
  • To give you my eight, nine, ten seats,
  • 00:18:49.284 --> 00:18:51.653
  • But only if you make me the prime minister,
  • 00:18:51.653 --> 00:18:53.889
  • Going in a lot to discuss, a lot to consider.
  • 00:18:53.889 --> 00:18:58.093
  • And we're in the early dog days of summer, as it were.
  • 00:18:58.093 --> 00:19:01.263
  • But i just wanted you
  • 00:19:01.263 --> 00:19:01.997
  • To be aware of some of
  • 00:19:01.997 --> 00:19:03.332
  • The big things that are brewing because netanyahu,
  • 00:19:03.332 --> 00:19:06.768
  • Netanyahu and his right wing coalition faces
  • 00:19:06.768 --> 00:19:10.005
  • Very a very big storm is coming at them.
  • 00:19:10.005 --> 00:19:13.575
  • And it may be turning into a tsunami.
  • 00:19:13.575 --> 00:19:15.777
  • Too early to say, but they but the netanyahu team could get
  • 00:19:15.777 --> 00:19:19.781
  • Washed out to sea politically. i'm not advocating it.
  • 00:19:19.781 --> 00:19:22.417
  • I'm not saying it's right or wrong.
  • 00:19:22.417 --> 00:19:23.452
  • I'm just saying you need to be aware of that.
  • 00:19:23.452 --> 00:19:25.754
  • Likewise, republicans in the house
  • 00:19:25.754 --> 00:19:28.123
  • And senate, the back
  • 00:19:28.123 --> 00:19:29.324
  • Trump as people evaluate this deal and gas prices
  • 00:19:29.324 --> 00:19:32.327
  • And everything else,
  • 00:19:32.327 --> 00:19:33.695
  • A storm is building
  • 00:19:33.695 --> 00:19:34.963
  • According to the polls, and that could turn into
  • 00:19:34.963 --> 00:19:37.232
  • A tsunami as well.
  • 00:19:37.232 --> 00:19:38.734
  • Again, not advocating it, not saying
  • 00:19:38.734 --> 00:19:40.736
  • That's definitely going to how it's going to play out,
  • 00:19:40.736 --> 00:19:42.537
  • But these are two things you need to be watching closely.
  • 00:19:42.537 --> 00:19:46.642
  • Coming up next on the rosenberg report, as quiet and calm
  • 00:19:46.642 --> 00:19:50.712
  • Returns to israel and the broader middle east,
  • 00:19:50.712 --> 00:19:53.615
  • Is it time for christians to start planning
  • 00:19:53.615 --> 00:19:56.184
  • To come visit the holy land?
  • 00:19:56.184 --> 00:19:58.053

  • 00:19:58.053 --> 00:20:01.957
  • Of israel and our epicenter summit that i'll be leading

  • Right after this break.
  • 00:20:16.008 --> 00:20:20.109
  • A lot to watch
  • 00:20:20.443 --> 00:20:22.912
  • There.
  • 00:20:22.912 --> 00:20:23.813
  • It's too early to use any of these polls,
  • 00:20:23.813 --> 00:20:25.214
  • Either in the congressional midterms
  • 00:20:25.214 --> 00:20:27.617
  • Or in the national elections in israel.
  • 00:20:27.617 --> 00:20:30.253
  • It's too early to
  • 00:20:30.253 --> 00:20:31.454
  • Draw conclusions,
  • 00:20:31.454 --> 00:20:32.655
  • But i wanted to give you a midsummer update on where we are

  • The political fortunes of president trump
  • 00:20:41.798 --> 00:20:43.833
  • And the republicans and prime minister benjamin netanyahu.
  • 00:20:43.833 --> 00:20:47.203

  • For prime minister netanyahu, for their teams, as we.

  • I'm not talking about politically.
  • 00:20:55.745 --> 00:20:56.879
  • I'm talking about militarily,
  • 00:20:56.879 --> 00:20:58.314
