Country music star Travis Tritt gave a recent history lesson to California Democrat Rep. Ted Lieu.
Hours after it was reported that the intelligence President Donald Trump gave to Russia was given to the U.S. by Israel, Lieu wanted to remind the president that Israel is our ally.
Dear @POTUS: As a Member of the Foreign Relations Cmte, I want to remind you that Israel is our ally, Russia is not. https://t.co/Z0lHu5lUWZ

Tritt gave Lieu a timely reminder about how the former president treated our ally Israel.
Dear Ted: This is a reminder you should have given to the former POTUS when he shunned Israel on a regular basis. https://t.co/OY9H8tE2dD

That led to a testy exchange with an apparent fan of former President Obama.
@RG1202 It does when the relationship between our current POTUS and Israel’s president is much stronger than the previous one.

@RG1202 Any politician who supported the former administration stabbing Israel in the back and is suddenly all “pro Israel” is a hypocrite.

@RG1202 I’ll wait to see what Netanyahu has to say about this situation before I try to assume what kind of damage has been done to the relationship

Wait no longer.
Israel seems to be secure in our relationship.
