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.

    Who is using it as excuse for the current genocide?

    You did, when you said “Genocide is a US problem not specific to any president.”

    When comparing 2 candidates, genocide doesn’t matter because they will both do it

    This “lesser of two evils” logic only holds up when deciding who to vote for. The Biden administration does not get to aid a genocide criticism-free just because Trump would be worse.

    Once a president is in office then you can protest decision

    A president is in office now, aiding a genocide now, so I’m protesting now. If the US is still supporting genocide after the election I will protest then, too.

    i’m not a trumper but biden is commiting genocide" is just pedantic and missing the point

    I saw a shocking amount of upvoted genocide denial in the comments, so I felt the need to respond, even if its unpopular.
