Gotcha. I didn't make that comment.

Who said "solely"? You asked for a reason other than geopolitical concerns. You got one. Both can be true.

Feel free to appease so long as the appeasement goes along with our values and right side of the issues 
a free world but wondering how frum Jews would not factor Israel in to their voting? not a jab, I really am mystified and would appreciate insight into this
And welcome Quarantine! You remind me so much of another poster...it'll come to me with time Enjoy and welcome to Imamother! Makes me want to change my screen name to "notinquarantine anymore B"H!"

There's a difference between not factoring it in and not making decisions based solely on Israel. And some people have different views on what's best for Israel.

I missed your last part above, so thank you!
I don't think full monetary reliance is a good thing. I don't think the current annexation plan is being implemented properly (though I do agree that the land is Israel's). I'm not saying the Democrats are going to be great, I'm just saying that the Republican position either isn't tenable, or there are other reasons not to vote Republican. And I'm fully aware that other people think America should be giving more aid to Israel and that they should go into the West Bank guns blazing.

Nice attempt to walk it back. But quite transparent.

How did I walk it back? You're the one who used the word solely, not me.

A huge majority of Israelis enthusiastically approve of Trump, and are grateful for all he’s done for Israel. But I guess you know better than all of them. Perhaps you’d like to advise the Israeli govt. about your views. I’m sure they’d respect your opinion above all.

It's a good thing Israelis don't vote for the US president, then. The Israeli government is free to liaise with Trump as much as they want, but there's more to US politics than Israel.

Israel should be a strong factor in every American jew’s vote.

Correct. He's pandering to the evangelicals.

Again: there is more than one interpretation of what's best for Israel, and Israel is not the only reason to vote for someone. "Strong" doesn't mean "only" or even "primary."

I don't know better, I have a different opinion on what's best for the future of Israel!

Better than pandering to Ilhan Omar and her supporters. Her/their views on Israel? not so good
When voting I take my best choice, not my ideal.
