Pray for Trump

I have heard this prayer that has recently been passed around, a prayer for the success of Donald Trump in the current USA presidential elections, is being said in many shuls during or at the end of the regular services.



Noticeably, the prayer says, "for having taken upon himself to guard and protect Israel".

I do wonder if the shuls saying this prayer also say the prayer for the State of Israel, a prayer that asks God to safeguard the State and bless its leaders with wisdom, and/or the prayer for the IDF, an institution that defends and protects the State of Israel, as well.

    While I have seen this floating around on social media no shul that I know of is saying it.
    I live in monsey and spend extensive time in Lakewood as well.

    it says he has taken upon himself to protect "Yisroel", it could be reference to Klal Yisroel, rather than Israel.
