Glad to see they're sticking to their guns. Make sure the libs understand that we'll do it again if they don't give in to the demands.
Go right ahead, not like there will be much to fight over after Trump turns Gaza into a Israeli resort town.
I'm rooting for you!
who ever thought trump would be better for palestinians is dumb asf. not saying harris would have done a good job since it seems no president will take their side.
Muslims were a key swing vote in key swing states like Michigan and Wisconsin.
More importantly, the dems might have actually won if they had taken this opportunity to show that they were capable of listening to and learning from their constituents.
Trump demonstrated that he could grow and adapt from his previous term while the dems insisted on dictating terms and asserting that everything was fine without room for criticism or growth.
Improve and grow.
Listen and adapt.
Do better.
This is proven by the data. Every poll on the subject reflected the sentiment that, had Harris split from Biden on Israel-Gaza, more would vote Harris. This was known before the election. This data was ignored. People were screaming for their rights up to the last second. Many (not all) still voted Harris. And now they are getting screamed down for still having the gall to express their anger at humans being treated as animals. It feels hopeless. The white moderate liberal has no shame or empathy.
No one is screaming down a nose holding Harris voter. She was a shit candidate with shit policy.
But given the only two options, she would have been better for people all around the world. Including Gaza.
There'd be a chance of stopping things. But now trump is drawing up condo plans
Everyone of these dumb fucks can just go shut the fuck up. They are one of the main reasons for the Trump victory. All of them knew Trump would be worse, but they were all too fucking stupid to just go with the least bad option. Kamala was not a good candidate, but she was better than Trump in every facet.
They were complaining that Biden was doing nothing for the situation.
What did they think Trump was going to do for them?
Well, he was the "Muslim ban" president, so it couldn't have been good.
But that ship has sailed. We have a malicious, greedy oligarch in control of the USA now.
People always start taking the status quo for granted eventually. On one hand, Trump might actually end the Palestinian genocide. Just, not in the way they want.
Yeah he'll get the genocide finished as quickly as possible.
Go fuck yourselves. Almost everyone tried to tell you this was going to end badly.
God. Damn these people are so pants shittingly stupid.
They are going to be yelling about how no palestinian can be removed from their land even as they are being tossed onto a plane to El Salvador.
Stupid fuckers. All it's going to take is one u s soldier getting his boot scuffed, and they'll round them all up.
They've been scuffing the boots of IDF soldiers for years and they're still going
But, hey, I'm sure the US is totally different, look at how easy and cheap it was for us to occupy Iraq /s
Why would trump's military care about easy or cheap?
Not to mention, Trump is a peacetime president. He's ending the Ukraine War and the Israel Palestine War ~~day 1~~ ~~week 1~~ ~~whenever convenient~~ committing US troops to Gaza to commandeer the land and redevlop it as a US territory, while also threatening to take over the Panama Canal, Greenland, and to annex Canada, and requesting Zelensky allow Putin to ravage Ukrainian land and likely install puppet govt while prosecuting any Ukrainian loyalists as the Russians see fit.
You know. Peaceful things.
