Trump will probably kill less Muslims than Bush and Obama did, both who I think were way too influenced by the Israel lobby and their demands for unnecessary wars against Muslims in Iraq, Libya, Syria, Lebanon, and other parts of the Middle East. Trump repeatedly emphasized that his administration will not be controlled by these kind of hawkish foreign lobbies that's been influencing and ruining Washington and countries in the Middle East for so long. That being said, I think that Hillary is already a puppet of the Israel lobby, and so is Ted Cruz. Their support for Israel is so strong that they're pretty much ready to see Palestine disappear and let Israel have it all. Trump, on the other hand, seems much more willing to foster a deal between the countries.
If you want to read a scholarly material on this subject, then I advise you to read "The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy," a working paper written by John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt in 2006.
Two years later, the paper was expanded into an entire book, which I have just started reading, and so far I think it is a remarkable book on the subject. With piercing analysis, the authors explain how the crafty Israel lobby has succeeded in moving America's foreign policy in a pro-Israel direction. The situation is even more pronounced in the Bush Administration, whose ranks include fervently pro‐Israel individuals like Elliot Abrams, John Bolton, Douglas Feith, I. Lewis (“Scooter”) Libby, Richard Perle, Paul Wolfowitz, and David Wurmser. As you will learn, these officials consistently pushed for policies favored by Israel and backed by organizations in the Lobby.
Here is something else. In a secretly recorded home video, Israel's President Netanyahu himself bragged about how easy it is to manipulate America. He said "I know what America is. America is a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right direction. They won't get in our way." Apparently, he was unaware of the fact that his words were being recorded. He also bragged about how he would cleverly undercut the Oslo Accords when he was Prime Minister during the Clinton administration.
I think Trump, more than other candidate, has the willpower and ability to change all of this. He'll be an actual leader and not a puppet.
