Some senior Trump advisers believe an Israeli government without Netanyahu could be easier to work with, despite Trump's support ahead of Tuesday's election.

J. De Vance became disillusioned with Netanyahu over the Iran war, while others raised concerns about Israel's policies in Syria, Lebanon and the West Bank.

Three major Israeli polls estimate only 50 seats for Netanyahu's bloc, raising the possibility of a deadlock that could leave him in power as interim prime minister.
