Love me some of that Ruthie Blum! In discussion with Jonathan Tobin.
My kinda woman. Clear eyed, tough, visionary. Anti-appeasion, anti-capitulation.
As for Israel support of Trump. It's always been strong, up to 83% by polling. Which makes sense, given how strongly pro Israel he was in his first term. Republicans are now lock-step pro Israel party. Democrats deeply split in Israel, from lukewarm support (feckless, inconsistent) through to outright anti-Semitic (the Squad, esp Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib ).
I also liked her in this earlier talk with colleague, Mark Regev. Regev I find a bit too much of a two-bob-each-way guy, compared with the robust clarity and toughness or Ruthie.
