Israel doesn't need any support past the US preventing the UN from actually doing anything concrete, which is exactly what the Biden administration is giving them.

With the exception of airdropped supplies into Gaza, which other countries are also doing, and that hasn't been enough to prevent famine, what would Trump even do to make things worse?

Committing US assets to a war in the middle east is one of the three things Trump's voter base won't actually support.

First of all, I didn’t name names. But how would a Republican be different? They’re all hawks. They wouldn’t pressure Israel to wind things down at all, they might even put boots on the ground

Why are you getting into weird hypotheticals? If it's a republican, it will be Trump. If it's not, because he straight up dies, they'll still be the same voter base: a voter base which isn't going to accept boots on the ground.

"Pressuring" Israel has done precisely fuck all, which is my point. Because by "pressuring" you mean "asking nicely".

And you're right: a republican wouldn't be different. That's what I'm saying.
