Former President Donald Trump expressed his commitment to the State of Israel during his speech at the Republican Jewish Coalition Leadership Summit. Speaking to an enthusiastic crowd at the Venetian Las Vegas, Trump emphasized that he would prioritize America’s interests while ensuring Israel’s long-term survival.
Trump questioned why Jewish voters would support his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, and suggested that if he had served a second term, he would have expanded support for the Abraham Accords. He believed that virtually every country would have signed onto this agreement.
Dr. Miriam Adelson, widow of casino magnate Sheldon Adelson who supported Trump financially during his presidential campaigns, spoke before him at the summit. Trump praised her and acknowledged their significant contributions.
During the event, other notable speakers included Texas Governor Greg Abbott, talk show host Mark Levin, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), and Auburn College men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl. Pearl commended Evangelical Christians for their unwavering support of Israel.
However, Harvard graduate Shabbos Kestenbaum presented a different perspective. While expressing support for left-wing policy positions such as the Green New Deal alongside pro-Israel Democrat Rep. Richie Torres (D-N.Y.), Kestenbaum criticized Vice President Harris for lacking a strong commitment to Israel’s security.
