“We recognize that, in the next four years, our decision may cause us to have an even more difficult time. But we believe that this will give us a chance to recalibrate, and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not.”
That’s gotta be one of the strangest reasonings I’ve heard in a while.
In Michigan, 25 percent of the population identity as evangelical Christians and 30 percent of those typically vote for Democrats. They probably wouldn’t have been been very happy with an anti-Israel stance. Neither would the Jewish community.
No matter what any president would have done in this situation, they would have won some and lost some.
