What Are U.S. Allies Now?
Over the weekend, a tough new ad from the Democratic Majority for Israel played in the D.C. area condemning Donald Trump for trying to accept a Boeing 747 from Qatar, a country the Democratic group’s 15-second spot said “gave Hamas billions for terrorism.”
“They’re paying off Trump,” the spot says. “What are they getting in return?”
Not a huge ad buy, as these things go, but it may be the first paid attempt by Democrats to turn Trump’s Middle East trip into a political liability among the pro-Israel Americans the president has championed.
