Reader comment on item: Enjoy the Jerusalem Embassy – But Don't Get Giddy
in response to reader comment: Pipes is often wrong about Trump
Submitted by Steve Klein (United States), May 16, 2018 at 16:15
I am Jewish and I did vote for Trump November 2016 but not without some apprehension. Thus far he is showing himself to be the most pro-Israel US president in my lifetime - Ambassador Nikki Haley is wonderful; Ambassador David Friedman has been great - I am not giddy though I am hopeful. I do give President Trump tremendous credit and respect for what he has done for Israel to date. "Thus far" Trump stands head and shoulders over George W. Bush and Barack Obama when it comes to Israel. Bush was an especial disappointment as I am a lifelong Republican.
