This is wild.

Now I want to see him reject AIPAC money. That’d be an absolute bombshell move.

They’re probably not giving him anything after this, but calling them out would be a a huge blow to their massive influence campaign in the party.

They’re the largest donor to Democratic super pacs ( this was a claim they made a few weeks ago, I can’t confirm it).

I doubt he’ll face repercussions. I think this is an “only Nixon could go to China” situation.
