"Every Senate Democrat who's eyeing a 2028 presidential run voted against arms sales to Israel in votes earlier this week. This reflects a growing divide within the party regarding support for Israel."
"Netanyahu is 'destroying the bipartisan nature in terms of support for Israel,' according to Sen. Ruben Gallego, indicating a shift in how Israel is perceived across party lines."
"Multiple Democrats who voted for Iron Dome in 2021 told Axios they're done providing financial aid, showcasing a significant change in the party's stance on military support for Israel."
"For every other group, Israel's favorability has collapsed since 2022, with notable declines among older Democrats and younger voters, signaling a broader shift in public opinion."
Support for Israel is waning among Democrats, with 40 Senate Democrats voting against arms sales, a significant increase from previous votes. Some House Democrats are also opposing funding for Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system, a shift from past support. Polling indicates that favorability towards Israel has dropped significantly among various demographic groups, with older Republicans and white Evangelicals being the last to maintain majority support. Younger Democrats and Republicans show notable declines in favorability since 2022.
