Donald Trump's comeback likely signals an American turn inward and declining involvement and investment of resources in distant countries, including Israel. Trump sees himself as the ultimate deal-maker, suggesting he could achieve an end to the fighting in which Israel has been engaged for over a year, and perhaps a move toward additional regional peacemaking efforts. At the same time, the unpredictable new president could decide to 'cut US losses' and reduce his country's involvement in the region even without securing an arrangement to end the ongoing conflicts and instability. Whatever Trump's term may augur, President Joe Biden still has two months left to establish facts on the ground and help advance a future vision for the region.
