TL;DR Summary

Prominent Republicans, including Rep. Mike Lawler and Rep. Mike Turner, are distancing themselves from former President Donald Trump after he criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and praised Hezbollah militants. Lawler called it a fight of good versus evil and criticized Trump's comments as neither smart nor good. Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp also condemned Trump's remarks, stating that it is never acceptable to praise deranged murderers or undermine a close ally. Trump's criticism of Netanyahu came in light of Israel's ongoing conflict with Hamas. Many GOP rivals and the White House have condemned Trump's remarks, while Sen. John Thune stated that voters will be the ultimate judge of Trump's rhetoric.
