California Governor Gavin Newsom has come out swinging against Israel.
In comments likely intended to boost his progressive credentials, Newsom likened the country to an “apartheid state.”
During a book tour appearance on Wednesday, Pod Save America host Jon Favreau asked about America’s relationship with the Jewish state under a Democratic administration.
“Do you think, looking down the road, that the United States should consider maybe, you know, rethinking our military support for Israel?” asked Favreau.
“It breaks my heart, because the current leadership in Israel is walking us down that path where I don’t think you have a choice about that consideration,” Newsom responded.
