Tier 2/3, between “Mainstream pro-Israel” and “Pro-Israel, critical”
A car-dealership owner (Key Auto Group), he won the September 2026 GOP primary for the open NH-1 seat with Trump's endorsement; his 21-point plan covers costs, a balanced-budget amendment, border security and energy, and includes one generic foreign-policy line: “Support peace efforts, especially in the Middle East and Ukraine.” Asked at an August 2026 Seacoast Republican Coalition primary debate (aired by C-SPAN) what limits or conditions he would place on military aid, including to Israel, he answered: “I support peace through strength. I do support Israel. I do not believe that the United States should be the world’s policeman,” adding that “any military funding should come with a string that the country receiving those funds acts in a humanitarian way as much as possible in a conflict.” At an October 5, 2026 UNH forum, asked whether Netanyahu should be reelected, he did not answer directly but said, per the Portsmouth Herald, “There’s a lot of … needless suffering and death in Gaza, and I think it’s a crisis that the world has to get involved (in) and figure it out.” At an October 25, 2026 candidates’ forum at Temple Adath Yeshurun in Manchester (aired by C-SPAN), asked whether he distinguishes support for Israel from support for its government, he said “I support our relationship with Israel. I support Israel’s right to defend itself,” adding: “Just because we have a relationship with another country does not mean we are always going to agree, so that’s not a rubber stamp for any of our allies.”
A 2/3, on a thin record: one primary-debate answer in August 2026 and two forum answers in October; his campaign site takes no side. Asked at a Seacoast Republican Coalition debate what limits or conditions he would place on military aid, including to Israel, he said “I do support Israel” and that the United States should not be “the world’s policeman,” and that “any military funding should come with a string that the country receiving those funds acts in a humanitarian way as much as possible in a conflict.” At an October 5 UNH forum, asked whether Netanyahu should be reelected, he spoke instead of “needless suffering and death in Gaza.” That October 5 answer is concern for Gaza’s civilians with no self-defense framing beside it, plus a humanitarian condition on military funding, in answer to a question about Israel. Counter-case: a 2. The condition covers all military funding, is hedged (“as much as possible”) and follows “I do support Israel”; on October 25 he led with “Israel’s right to defend itself,” with only a general “not a rubber stamp” caveat; he names nothing he would withhold, and told the forum that foreign policy is “not top of mind” in New Hampshire.
