This is my prediction based on trump's history. As things continue to devolve in the Middle East and gas prices are sky high, trump will be looking for someone else to blame. He can't blame anyone in the US because the generals warned him and he basically went into this unilaterally without any type of national discussion or pre-approval from Congress.

That leaves BB. When trump turns on BB, there's no telling what he will rile up in this country. trump could unleash antisemitism on a level we haven't seen since hitler, although it's possible he would be removed before things got to that point. Either way, the long-standing relationship between the US and Israel would likely be permanently severed.
