Trump told Benjamin Netanyahu in one call this month, “Do what you have to do,” according to six people familiar with the conversation who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive and confidential information. Trump has said publicly that the two have spoken at least twice in October, with one call as recently as Oct. 19.
“He didn’t tell him what to do militarily, but he expressed that he was impressed by the pagers,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina), who was on a call this month with Trump and Netanyahu, referring to the Israeli operation that killed Hezbollah leaders with explosive batteries inside pagers. “He expressed his awe for their military operations and what they have done.”
Graham added: “He told them, do what you have to do to defend yourself, but we’re openly talking about a new Mideast. Trump understands that very much there has to be change with the corrupt Palestinian state.”
Are you sure that the Jews there who support the continuation of the war aren’t already voting Trump? Cause if they are she might not lose it.
In all likelihood you’re probably right, but it all depends what the voting intentions are in and what proportion of the voters they comprise in each state.

They are already wavering because of antisemitism. Kiss them all goodbye if we turn on Israel and potentially trigger more strikes by Iran.
Okay so they get to pressure Kamala with their votes but the Pro-Palestenian people can’t? Pretty hypocritical.
They can and do. And the others can and do. But now she either loses Pennsylvania or Michigan by pissing one of them off. Michigan has 15 electoral votes, and Pennsylvania 19.
Do the math.
Who do you think there are more of? Which group do you think has a stronger lobbying presence? I mean, seriously, do any of you actually understand how politics works in my country?
So the smaller group has to capitulate to the larger group every time? You think that’s how political power works? That’s not how the smaller group gets political power. It’s through using the leverage hrye have to force compromise from the larger group if they want to win. The same thing smaller parties do in coalition systems.
