U.S. Elections
Israel and Jewish issues played a small but explosive role in the presidential debate between Biden and Trump late last month.
New polling shows the president trailing Trump in critical battleground states.
The current and former U.S. presidents clashed briefly but explosively on Israel in a debate that raises questions about Biden’s age and fitness for office.
Experts are divided on the degree to which it would pose a challenge if Trump and his vice presidential pick lived in the same state, and one had to declare a new residence.
“Trump has a huge opportunity to contrast himself with Biden on the issues of Israel and Iran,” the presidential historian Tevi Troy told JNS.
Investigative journalist Ryan Mauro told JNS that participants “are almost all pro-Hamas and Communist, or anarchist or anarcho-Communist.”
The Michigan secretary of state told JNS it is reviewing the signatures.
American Jewish voters concerned about Jew-hatred and the Democratic Party’s progressive wing “may be on the move,” said Steven Windmueller of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion.
At a recent private fundraiser with Jewish donors, the U.S. Republican presidential candidate affirmed Israel’s right to continue “its war on terror.”
The White House called the post “abhorrent, sickening and disgraceful.”
The main topic of discussion was reportedly be Israel’s domestic political situation.
At a New Jersey rally, the former president called Joe Biden as the “worst president ever, of any country.”
