The Republican National Committee on Monday announced a historic partnership with a Jewish Republican organization for the third Republican primary debate next month.
The organization's partnership with the RNC is historic, as a Jewish group has never sponsored a national presidential debate, which RJC pointed out in a post to X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.This is an historic opportunity. No other Jewish organization has ever co-sponsored a national presidential debate.— RJC October 16, 2023 The 2024 Republican presidential candidates have been vocal in their condemnation of the militant group Hamas following its attacks on Israel last week.
However, the increasingly popular Vivek Ramaswamy has criticized the reactions from some of his opponents and tried to steer the national conversation back to the U.S. According to him, his opponents's responses were an example of “selective moral outrage,” as they ignored other issues at home and abroad.
Former President Donald Trump, who boasts a strong record of standing with Israel during his term, rubbed some the wrong way after the attacks. He used the opportunity to hit Netanyahu, with whom his relationship has reportedly soured. Netanyahu, Trump said last week,"has been hurt very badly because of what’s happened here. He was not prepared. He was not prepared, and Israel was not prepared.
