Well, we knew Trump was sucking Netanyahu, but CNN is going all in and says he’s deep throating it now.

    Nice. Lately a trump endorsement is the kiss of death for any campaign. If Trump makes Netenyahu lose, even accidentally, that’ll still be more anti zionist politcing than has gone on in the US since… JFK.

    /S Just kidding. The Israeli population is massively in lockstep behind Netenyahu’s war crimes. Eiskenot (his opponenet) has had to veer farther right to even run at all. The resistence to the far right is a tiny tiny tiny minority there. Its basically no one. They will re-elect Netenyahu, and the whole world knows it.

    Honestly everybody with a shot at winning that election is terrible so I’m not even too mad about it. Short of coming out in support of Palestinian liberation or something, Netanyahu is on the better side just because he’s ā€œdumbā€ (he’s not; he just doesn’t actually care about the Zionist project and that makes him act in ways that would be dumb if he did).

    I honestly wish more US politicians would endorse Netanyahu if they support him. Just come right out and say it, publicly, because maybe it’d make people realize who not to vote for in November.

    Is this good for Netanyahu, or does it hurt him? I’m asking sincerely since Trump’s popularity has tanked in Israel over the Iran war just like in America, just for different reasons.
