️🇺🇸🇮🇱 Politico: The deadlock in the Israeli elections destroyed the hopes in Washington for a quick reset of the relationship between the US and Israel, as factions in the Trump administration and both parties in Congress hoped that the opposition would win, with neither Netanyahu's Likud nor Netanyahu's Likud winning a majority in Gush Yazenkot and Gadi in Gush Yankot. Knesset 120 seats in the partial count.
The result sets up a coalition process lasting weeks or months or perhaps more elections, with Netanyahu remaining in charge in the meantime, while Trump stood by his support and said it helped him avoid a total loss.
