Former Congressman Peter Deutsch Endorses Trump

Former Democratic Congressman Peter Deutsch has publicly endorsed Donald Trump for president, criticizing the Biden administration's foreign policy, particularly regarding Israel and Iran. During a Trump campaign call commemorating the anniversary of the Hamas attacks on Israel, Deutsch emphasized his concerns about global security, stating that the Biden-Harris administration makes the world 'dramatically less safe.' He expressed that the foremost responsibility of a president is to maintain world peace, which he believes Trump would better achieve. Deutsch's endorsement reflects a growing dissatisfaction among some Democrats with Biden's leadership and handling of international conflicts. He joins former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard as the second Democrat to back Trump, highlighting a trend of party cross-overs in the current political landscape. The Trump campaign has seized upon these endorsements to bolster its narrative of a strong pro-Israel stance against perceived Democratic weaknesses.
