Two days before the US midterm elections, Yaki Dayan analyzes President Donald Trump's political situation on 103fm. Dayan notes that these are the most expensive midterm elections in history, with a budget of $12 billion. The Republicans have a slim majority of 4 seats in the House of Representatives, but it is estimated that the House is lost for them. Dayan explains the difference between the Senate (100 representatives, two from each state) and the House of Representatives (435 representatives, according to state size). He warns that if the Democrats control both houses, Israel may feel stronger anti-Israel winds and anti-Israel legislation will pass in Congress. On the other hand, Dayan argues that Trump, who has entered the 'legacy phase' and is no longer up for election, will feel more comfortable waging war against Iran over the nuclear issue, despite being an unpopular president with about 30% approval.
