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.

    The protest vote did send a pretty strong message to dems, but they evidently didn’t give a fuck so now we just have to suck it up and vote for biden. It’s not that they’ll forget the lesson, it’s that they never learned it at all. 2016 should have been a lesson as well but we see how that turned out.

      This part really kills me. We already watched it happen once and are now dealing with irreparable damages as a result. How many people protested HRC by either abstaining or voting for a third-party? Fucking nobody wants Hillary in office anymore, but we don’t get a say in the ticket so you suck it up and vote for the person who isn’t saying they will literally commit all the crimes because being president absolves them of any blame.
