The United States President Donald Trump intended to make inroads in the politically crucial Jewish-American vote with a Florida speech in which he declared himself the best friend Israel has ever had.
"Jewish-Americans had been wrong to vote for Democrats under Barack Obama, the former president," said the Republican real estate magnate at a conference in Hollywood, Florida.
"So many of you voted for people in the last administration," he said.
"Someday you'll have to explain that to me because I don't think they liked Israel too much," added he.
"The Jewish state has never had a better friend in the White House than your president, Donald J Trump," said Donald Trump.
Trump was speaking at a meeting of the Israeli-American Council.
Historically, American-Jews have voted heavily Democratic. Jews makeup only a small portion of the electorate but in Florida.
Trump, has worked especially hard to woo Jewish-Americans and is hoping to repeat his 2016 strategy next year by winning re-election through the strategic accumulation of electoral college votes in key states,
