The Real Reason Trump Picked Mike Huckabee as Ambassador to Israel
Briefly

Trump's choice of Huckabee as ambassador signals a clear alignment with evangelical interests, disregarding the views of most American Jews on Israeli-Palestinian peace solutions.
Despite Huckabee's long history of advocating for permanent Israeli control over the West Bank, the majority of American Jews favor a two-state solution.
Huckabee's appointment reveals the transactional nature of Trump's foreign policy, primarily aimed at rewarding his evangelical Christian supporters rather than pursuing peace in the Middle East.
The appointment emphasizes the growing influence of evangelical Christians in U.S. politics, particularly regarding foreign policy decisions related to Israel.
