Which is probably why Bibi won't attack Rafah for a few months more, yet. He's very good at US politics, and would want to keep Gaza on the American political agenda right up to the election. Joe Biden probably knows or guesses this.

2016 redux: Per Tom Ferguson, in an INET analysis of the 2016 election, what propelled Trump to victory was an influx of dark money from Sheldon Adelson and other wealthy US donors (in August, when T’s campaign was flagging, IIRC). Trump’s subsequent actions in the ME were Adelson’s ROI.
