Are Pro-Trump Jews Moving On?

As 2022 ushers in a new political cycle, the relationship between former president Donald Trump and his supporters in the Jewish community -- a minority, but a passionate and often influential one -- seems set to enter a new and more complicated phase. The latest twist came in December, when interviews emerged in which the former president rained abuse on his erstwhile ally, former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Raging on the record to Israeli journalist Barak Ravid that Netanyahu had betrayed him by phoning to congratulate President-elect Joe Biden, Trump went on to tell Ravid that it was Netanyahu, not Palestinian Authority head Mahmoud Abbas, who had been the true obstacle to Israel-Palestine peace efforts.
