Trump criticized the Israeli government and lauded Hezbollah militants as “very smart” as he seeks political gain from the attacks that killed 1,200 people by claiming that if the last election was not “rigged,” he’d be the American president and they’d never have happened.

GOP rivals now accuse Trump of behavior unsuitable for a potential commander in chief after an ally came under attack amid horrendous scenes of carnage in which some Americans were also killed. Many bemoaned his admiration for Hezbollah, a group that has brought about so much destruction in Israel.

Q 1: Is there anyone or anything this man won't attack if he thinks it will benefit him?

Q 2: I wonder how his daughter and son in law (both Jews) are taking this?

Yes, a bit difficult to believe. I wonder if you have a source.... a definite source.... so that we don't have to wade through any Sonhouse diatribes.
I may change my vote!

I have many sources, but since you're unable to deal with links, I guess you're out of luck.

Right, you would change your vote if you heard Trump diss Israel. Sure, and I may make a million bucks on Chess.com......
I heard him say those stupid words and the deal with him killing that Iranian general, the Israeli's did not want anything to do with it in spite of what Trump said, which of course like everything else he says, is a lie.
You should watch other news stations, real ones, not that hypocritical propaganda show on Fox or the other ultrarightwingers who will not show disparaging remarks of your god king Trump.
I doubt you would even look at the previous post which showed the asssinine words of your god king.

I think I could change my mind about Donald, I have to hear more. I am a realist, not an idealist. He did us all a good turn in his tenure, I often say y'all missed that train, most of the country caught that train.
If he has changed, if he is not the same leader that he was, I will be looking for another leader......One that gets up and going like Trump did. I need a man that gets things done, so that we all prosper. We presently don't have that man.
I will let you know soon. Will you let me know who you would llke to be a leader, whom this country would look up to.?

I did hear him mutter something about intelligent Hezbollah. But he seemed to be squealing about his microphone as well.

One can never be sure.

they don't provide a quote here or in other news articles. Kind of strange they don't provide it since that's the whole point of the article. That seems like an oversight?

Trump didn't really mean to turn on Israel. He is just so overpowered by his own narcicism that he can't get over the fact that Netanyahu didn't refuse to recognize the Biden government on the grounds that the election was stolen. Trump is quite supportive of Israel, but he doesn't have the self-discripline or the mental state to engage in diplomacy. This is hardly news, but his mental unfitness to lead is so stark that it's incredible that some people just refuse to see it.

A conundrum indeed, these personalities. Take George Patton, many could not stand him.A singlehanded lone leader.
Hey, guys, Jimmy Carter could do a better job, by golly?
Men, guys, men.

So how many indictments would it take for you to change your vote? We are almost up to 100 now, clearly that is not enough for you. Would 120 do it? 150? There will be more down the road and even if *Shudder* he gets elected again and squashes the fed ones, he can't as POTUS squash STATE charges so Fani will still have her say.
It looks like Trump's pet judge is doing her best to delay, delay and delay again so THAT case will take place well after the elections next November.
There still is the civil case in NYC, where he even lied about the size of his apartment, calling it 30,000 square feet when in fact it came out to 1/3 of that, specifically to get loans, and that is called fraud, but of course not enough for the likes of you, right?
