Speaking at the MUNI EXPO 2025 Local Government Center conference regarding Netanyahu's trial, Huckabee observed "This matter is highly sensitive. The President addressed what we perceived as fundamentally a witch hunt in America, and it's extremely challenging to perform the duties voters elected you for while constrained by legal proceedings that divert attention from your responsibilities."

I stopped by the trial of @IsraeliPM in Tel Aviv today. My conclusion? @realDonaldTrump is right…again. https://t.co/Y5wBHnmKkS pic.twitter.com/zgcmzvlf9u

Huckabee elaborated, "The President comprehends the difficulty when during such an intense tenure you devote extensive time in courtrooms before biased judges. I believe the President isn't attempting to choose sides regarding Israeli affairs, yet he acknowledges from his personal experience how extraordinarily difficult it becomes to fulfill the role citizens elected you to perform. I plan to attend Netanyahu's trial proceedings today to observe, which promises to be quite fascinating."
