Trump advisers: If we lose, let's turn to Israel! The New York Times reported that the fear of Republican losses in the US mid-term elections reached such a level that Trump's top advisers joked about fleeing to Israel! Six days before the elections, in a private conversation, James Blair, Trump's advisor, said sarcastically: "At least Bibi (Netanyahu) won, and he will protect us." Tony Fabrizio, a Trump pollster, responded with a laugh: "Maybe we can get asylum in Israel! ".
