I don't think it's plausible at all. Unconditional support for Israel is a really important pillar of post-cold-war US foreign policy. Nothing short of a very large economic downturn is going to make the US stop supporting Israel.
Israel allows the US to play “good cop / bad cop” with the rest of the region. Israel is willing to do what the US can’t / won’t do (due to diplomatic and domestic reasons). If you try to go against US interests, Israel is there to make your life hell until you relent. Israel has zero compunction about bombing, slaughtering civilians, assassinating leaders, etc. But bend the knee to the US and then you can be Israel’s “friend” too.
I already elaborated elsewhere in the thread, but TLDR Israel is an extremely important strategic position.
One point I didn't bring up elsewhere is the MIC's blowback job security machine is predicated on endless war, and if the CIA's assets in ISIL or other terrorist groups aren't moving the amount of missiles that Northrop Grumman is looking to sell, Israel is always one phone call away from some psychotic military operation. But I honestly don't think this is anywhere near as important of a factor, especially now that we even saw the US abandon Ukraine to help Israel.
