They're not exactly blessed with an abundance of choice.

Naw man, I'm tired of this excuse.

We literally have Republicans pushing laws that make it illegal to criticize Israel. Or the fact it was Bush II that got America into the Afghan and Iraq invasions that went absolutely nowhere.

The only winning move is to not play. Both parties want to tear apart the U.S. Don't vote for either of them.

Better than voting for Donald "Jerusalem is the Jewish capital" Trump.

The winning move is revolution and secession.

Is he? Don't think so. With a few exceptions like Omar and Tahlib the Democrats especially the upper echelons are as fanatically pro-Zionist as the Republicans. Pelosi has said things so ridiculously pro-Israel that they'd make Lindsey Graham blush. The only difference between the two is the methods favoured. Democrats prefer a more Labour form of Zionism while Republicans are full on Likudniks.

probably just for show but Obama used to get Israel pissed off because he did dealings with Iran. Trump reversed all of that and made Netanyahu happy.

They don't - but the hard-line Zionists do, b/c he did everything to help Israel

Jews are generally left-wing (and 71% voted for Clinton in 2016). So despite the fact that he is disliked by most Jews because he touts psuedo-white-nationalist rhetoric he still did everything to help Israel. Which makes sense, given his relationship with Bibi, Kushner, and his largest donor Sheldon Adelson, among other Jewish connections (Wexner, Epstein, etc.)
