So we saw this in New York, and we're probably going to see this in several other major cities.
But I think that foreign policy really only figures into the midterms to the extent that it impacts the day-to-day lives of ordinary Americans.
So, you know, keeping the Strait open and the ceasefire intact is politically important for Trump at this point because what it would mean for voters who are concerned about their gas prices and prices of their household goods.
I think that's going to drive the kind of rhetoric more than the specifics of, say, whatever deal emerges or doesn't emerge with Iran in the coming weeks.
Well, so Israel has its own elections in the fall, which will probably proceed by a few weeks, our midterm elections in the U.S.

So in the past, Netanyahu, he was hoping to use Trump for his reelection campaign, but
But these days, Trump is not very popular in Israel.
And so the original idea of using him for his election or reelection has now been scrapped by his campaign.
As far as the erosion of support for Israel in the U.S., there is a sentiment in Israel that the world doesn't
I don't quite get the trauma of October 7th and the idea that Israelis continue to feel vulnerable in the wake of ongoing threats from Hamas in the south and Hezbollah in the north.
So there is clearly a disconnect, I would say, between Israelis and how they're viewing the situation and then everybody else, including Americans.
Yes, and it's really too early to tell whether this is a long-term shift or not.
In the case of the national elections in Israel, I would think that a different government wouldn't necessarily reverse this deeper shift because it is generational and it's tied to the war itself, but it could certainly stop the erosion.
And so we will, I think, know much more once the next Israeli government forms and once we have our own midterms here.
what the direction is going to look like here in terms of the future of US-Israel relations.
