.Ben Samuels Donald Trump and Tucker Carlson are both vocally opposed to how Israel is waging war in Gaza. If Tucker's isolationism and Trump's antisemitic tropes are the GOP's future, then Israel, and particularly Netanyahu, are in big trouble

It has been well-established that today's GOP takes its cues from two men: Donald Trump and Tucker Carlson. Six months after October 7, both are vocally opposed to how Israel is conducting its war in Gaza. Could the Republican Party soon follow them? haaretz.com/israel-news/ha…

Biden slams Netanyahu's handling of Gaza war: 'What he's doing is a mistake. I don't agree with his approach'

He adds there's 'no excuse' for Israel to not provide aid, but still won't heed growing Democratic calls to halt & condition military assistance haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

Trump's recent criticism of Israel and how it's executing Gaza war may cause an unintended significant consequence: GOP megadonor Miriam Adelson — Trump's largest donor in 2020 — is said to be unhappy with his rhetoric
