If MAGA's performance on foreign policy veazavee Iraq/Syria/Iraq/Gaza/Venez/Iran interventions is less than stellar, could the rising fresh face star of Christian Zionism become a major threat for MAGA ahead of 2020?
While there is no indication at this point that MAGA's current top funder, respected neoconservative and social liberal Sheldon Adelson who used to fund democrats but switched sides when Dems turned anti-Israel, is ready to jump ship but can MAGA compete with all that clean-cut liberal-Democrat , who is pro-Israel, vibrant, openly gay and strong on liberal social agenda, brings to the table?
Although pretty strong on Iran sanctions and military pressure, MAGA seem to be wavering on Syria military intervention commitment that could jeoperdize security of our closest ally in mideast. If he really exited Syria/Iraq/Afghainstan wars in a non-fakenews way, there is a good chance that neocons Big Funding could switch to the right Dem willing to go the extra mile.
No need to panic quite yet but need tp keep eyes open as race for 2020 funding heats up.
Democrats are increasingly critical of Israel. Not Pete Buttigieg.
Buttigieg’s staunch support of Israel bucks the Democratic party’s trend.

Pete Buttigieg may be a rising star in the 2020 Democratic field, but his strong pro-Israel views may put him at odds with the increasingly pro-Palestinian left flank in his own party.
The 37-year-old openly gay mayor of South Bend, Indiana, has in the past described Israel as a model for the US in how to deal with security threats. He’s blamed most of the suffering in Gaza on Hamas, the Palestinian Islamist political organization and militant group that has run the territory since 2007. And he’s strongly rejected condemnations of Israel — and US support for it — made by progressive lawmakers.
