Is he courting the Zionist vote? And Zionist money?

Trump may or may not personally be anti-Semitic, but it certainly doesn't show in his policy choices.

Unless you want to claim he's doing this only to please the Evangelicals, and not at all for the Jews.

He has repeatedly claimed the Jews should be voting for him.

[When and why did use of the definite article, pretty much the norm in my youth, in sentences like the last two, become disfavored?]

And he has done much to prove it, assuming actual Zionism remains popular among them.

And of course he just likes Netanyahu.

Mike Pence Says U.S. Embassy Will Open in Jerusalem Next Year

Jan. 22, 2018

BEIRUT, Lebanon — Vice President Mike Pence said on Monday that a new United States Embassy to Israel would open in Jerusalem before the end of 2019.

Mr. Pence’s statement, made to the Israeli Parliament during a trip to the Holy Land, follows President Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital last month, a move that overturned decades of American policy and international consensus on the status of the holy city.

Trump recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel

Dec. 6, 2017

WASHINGTON — Ten days before Donald J. Trump took office, Sheldon G. Adelson went to Trump Tower for a private meeting. 

Afterward, Mr. Adelson, the casino billionaire and Republican donor, called an old friend, Morton A. Klein, to report that Mr. Trump told him that moving the American Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem would be a major priority.

“He was very excited, as was I,” said Mr. Klein, the president of the Zionist Organization of America, a hard-line pro-Israel group. 

“This is something that’s in his heart and soul.”

The two men had to wait nearly a year, but on Wednesday, Mr. Trump stood beneath a portrait of George Washington to announce that he was formally recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and setting in motion a plan to move the embassy to the fiercely contested Holy City.

“While previous presidents have made this a major campaign promise,” he said, “they failed to deliver. Today, I am delivering.”

In Golan Heights, Trump Bolsters Israel’s Netanyahu but Risks Roiling Middle East

March 21, 2019

President Trump declared on Thursday that the United States should recognize Israel’s authority over the long disputed Golan Heights, delivering a valuable election-eve gift to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu but jettisoning decades of American policy in the Middle East.

Mr. Trump’s announcement, in a midday Twitter post, came after persistent pressure from Mr. Netanyahu, a close political ally who is fighting for his survival in the election scheduled for April 9, and has invoked his friendship with the American president as a prime argument for staying in office.
