Jewish Coalition Event Focuses on Israel-Hamas War Amidst 2024 GOP Presidential Race

Top contenders for the 2024 GOP Presidential race, including former president Donald Trump, use Republican Jewish Coalition event to express steadfast support for Israel and court donors amid ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.

The annual Republican Jewish Coalition meeting is attended by top 2024 GOP Presidential contenders, with Israel-Hamas conflict taking center stage. The candidates expressed unflinching support for Israel and tried to court donors amidst the ongoing Middle Eastern crisis.
Leading the charge are GOP Presidential hopefuls including Donald Trump, Nikki Haley, and Ron DeSantis, who have used this platform to showcase their foreign policy credentials while expressing their strong support for Israel during its escalating conflict with Hamas.
The conference has gained significant attention due to the current Israeli crisis and the rise of antisemitism in the U.S. The Coalition expects Republican leaders to firmly support Israel and show solidarity in these critical times.
Several speakers, including Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo and South Carolina Senator Rick Scott, took aim at progressive Democrats who called for a cease-fire. Republican officials also highlighted the tensions on U.S. college campuses, where students have clashed over the Israeli conflict.
About 1,500 donors, activists, and officials were present at the event. The Coalition, generously funded by late right-wing businessman Sheldon Adelson, has historically been a fundamental stop for GOP candidates to court Jewish voters and portray themselves as staunch allies of Israel.
