What happened

An opinion column argues that Donald Trump’s politics are driven by quick victories, respect, and the distinction between “winners” and “losers,” with Israel initially fitting that framework. The piece says the alliance with Israel has been strained by prolonged war and that Trump now sees Netanyahu and Israel as a burden rather than an asset. It concludes that Israel currently cannot offer Trump the kind of victory he wants.
