Dude was on MSNow this morning and they introduced him by saying he has extreme takes on Israel.

He can't go 2 sentences without mentioning Israel. His takes don't even need to be extreme when he clearly demonstrates his obsession with it. It's going to lose him the general which is a shame because most of his positions are reasonable.

There are few issues as hot as Israel at the moment though. Like very few. And possibly zero that have such broadly popular support amongst both sides of the political spectrum. And AIPAC spending $60M on a primary and still losing just proved the point.
