JD Vance refuses to back Israel's Netanyahu for re-election a day after Trump gave him a 'Complete and Total Endorsement'

'I'm not anti-endorsing him. I'm not pro-endorsing him,' Vice President JD Vance told Mark Halperin on '2WAY Tonight' aboard Air Force Two on Monday. He insisted he endorses only American candidates and is focused on the midterms. Yet Vance campaigned for Viktor Orban in Hungary last spring, before Orban's party lost. Benjamin Netanyahu now faces a fiercely contested election.

Trump warned that without 'Bibi', 'America will have to do this work ourselves'.

Netanyahu thanked Trump on X: 'Israel has never had a greater friend in the White House.'

Vance called Trump's backing 'the most effective endorsement in American or international political history'.
