More endorsement for Harris
Former aide says Netanyahu’s ‘experience with Republicans is very good’
Aviv Bushinsky, a political commentator and Netanyahu’s former chief of staff, told the AFP news agency that Netanyahu’s “experience with Republicans is very good… unlike with the Democrats who are much tougher on him”.
Bushinsky’s comments come after Trump spoke about his close personal relationship with the Israeli prime minister at a rally in Georgia on Wednesday. “We have a very good relationship,” said Trump, who met with Netanyahu at his Florida residence in July. “We’re going to work with them very closely.”
Those positives will outweigh any concerns, said Bushinsky. “I think Netanyahu would be willing to take the risk of Trump’s unpredictability,” he said.
Nadav Tamir, a former Israeli diplomat to the US, agreed, noting that Trump is also much more popular among Israelis than his rival Kamala Harris. “In Israel, more than any other liberal democracy outside the United States, Trump is more popular than Harris,” Tamir told AFP.
(Calling Israel a liberal democracy is quite a stretch...)
Harris sucks, yet if it were up to Trump the US would have been dragged into a full scale war with Iran by now. Biden/Harris so far prevented that by limiting Israel's retaliation strikes on Iran.
