Axios: The Republican Party Is Starting To Turn On Israel

As I explained on The Political Cesspool, I am extremely pessimistic about politics in the short term, but optimistic about politics in the long term. I’m confident that Trump and MAGA will suffer a bigger defeat in the midterms than in 2018. Trump will be impeached next year and will become a lame duck president. The final two years of Trump’s second term will be consumed with gridlock and investigations.

Axios:

“Benjamin Netanyahu lost the Democrats. Now a growing number of Republicans are souring on him and his country, too.

Why it matters: More Republicans, especially younger ones, turned on Israel as its military leveled Gaza — and then Netanyahu alienated President Trump and his team as they sought to end the Iran war. …

He said the war has accelerated young Republicans’ drift away from Israel. Only one in four Republicans had a more positive than negative view of the Iran war, a May UMD Critical Issues poll revealed, while one in three had a more negative than positive opinion. …”

In 2028, MAGA will lose again with Vance or Rubio because of Israel.

Basically, I think Trump has set us up for a repeat of the Obama years with his failed presidency. Democrats will retake the House in the midterms and possibly the Senate like in 2006. Democrats will win the presidency back in 2028 by running a change candidate like Obama. By this point, Trump and MAGA will be discredited and in the rearview mirror and the focus will be on how Democrats are screwing up and ruining the country. It won’t take long for Democrats to squander their backlash majority.

By 2032, Boomers and Gen X will have taken a large dip in their share of the rightwing electorate. They won’t be able to control the primaries anymore. FOX News will lose its grip on primaries. After suffering two big defeats because of Israel, I doubt the donors will be able to hold on past 2032. The Republican Party will be forced to evolve on Israel in a way that is inconceivable today to stay competitive.
