Please President Trump, Don’t Make Netanyahu’s Mistake
I hope Trump does not make Netanyahu’s mistake.
The reason a leftist government came to power in Israel was due to Netanyahu’s ego. There would have been a conservative government if Netanyahu had been willing to cede leadership of the Likud party to someone else. But his ego prevented him from doing that. And this same scenario is likely to unfold in the upcoming elections in Israel.
Now in the US, we see the same potential disaster in the making. Don’t get me wrong, Israelis love Trump. He moved the US embassy to Jerusalem, tore up the Iran deal, and has grandkids who attend a Jewish day school. But if he would pass the mantle of leadership to DeSantis, there is a much better chance of conservatives retaking the White House in two years and, who knows, maybe both houses of Congress this November, which would be truly beneficial for Israel, to say nothing of the US.

I voted for Utah’s next Senator Evan McMullin in 2016.
So maybe that’s when you started being called a RINO, when you voted against the Republican nominee for someone who couldn’t win. In other words, it wasn’t Trump coming on the scene that caused you to be called a RINO but your change in voting choices and not voting for a Republican.
Gary voted for the scheme to use the rules to throw the election into the House so they could select a President that over 90% of the nation did not vote for.
That is what Gary voted for.
The idea that the will of 90% of the people should be ignored so that a handful of the elite get to pick the President is undemocratic, unrepublican, , and frankly, un-American.
Huh. Just like Trump.
Ah, the medium-sized lie.
It’s a useful term for Reagan Republicans who vote for Democrats, for example.
See above. You are a RINO because you elect Democrats.
No, that isn’t your policy. You voted for Biden.
