Wouldn’t he have his election campaign coffers already full up at this stage?
Perhaps, but there might be more to it than that. I think he’s also afraid of alienating Jewish voters, who represent a large bloc within the Democratic Party in delegate-rich states such as Florida and New York.
I wonder if that’s not a miscalculation. To assume that people who are Jewish are automatically in favour of Netanyahu. Even in Israel itself his popularity has dropped a lot, I’ve seen big demonstrations in the news.
This is daft though considering that he needs Michigan and the Muslim voters in were one of the Democratic pillars in that state, and he has completely and possibly irrevocably alienated them.

And he might end up losing Florida anyway, because it has steadily transitioned from a swing state to a red state over the past few election cycles.
