Trump has waffled on whether the Israel-Gaza war should end. But speaking to wealthy donors behind closed doors, he said that he supports Israel’s right to continue “its war on terror.”

Former president Donald Trump promised to crush pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses, telling a roomful of donors — a group that he joked included “98 percent of my Jewish friends” — that he would expel student demonstrators from the United States, according to participants in the roundtable event with him in New York.

    I agree. All individuals and institutions you listed could be culpable, but no suits, internationally, nor domestically have been filed. Except for the CCR case against Biden, Blinken, and Austin.

    I looked into the origin of the “genocide Joe” meme. The earliest entry is from October 18, 2023. As far as I can tell it was started by pro-Palestine leftists like Aaron Mate, Hasan, and Alan Macleod. It did not originate from conservative media.

      Youre a trumper. Let’s not pretend lawsuits mean anything at all to you. Nevermind lawsuits that haven’t started.

      The origin is irrelevant to who is perpetuating it, or why. “Sleepy Joe”, “Genocide Joe”, “Orange man bad” are all designed to remove any critical thinking or nuance. It was the same for “Crooked Hillary”.

      Now if you’re so good at fetching historical data, let’s find which political party has it as a primary strategy to make up silly names and gaslight their opponent with them… i’ll wait.

        This prolix exposition does nothing to keep Trump from being reelected. More likely, it serves to depress voter motivation. You need to give people a reason to vote for Biden, not against Trump. Best of luck.

            Yes, pressure on Biden will force him to stop supporting a genocide, which will hopefully help more people support him. He’s already taken baby steps. Thanks to this pressure. I was told to vote for him in 2020 because he can be pushed left and I did. Yet, if he can’t be pushed to not support a genocide, the biggest crime of all humanity, then it’s not really true.
