This is the right take. There are a fuckton of wealthy, influential people in the pro-Israel camp and to turn against Israel in an election would be political suicide. Netanyahu created a perfect wedge issue for a Trump victory by continuing down the warpath.
The pro Israel money was already going to trump. Fucking Miriam adelson alone gave him $100 million
Even though the Israel lobby is huge it's not dominant on a national stage. Sure Aipac can take out some first term reps with a couple million dollars but they are dwarfed by the amount of money going into the presidential election. If anyone can take on the Israel lobby it's the presidential candidate with a war chest the size of a small countries gdp.
