Trump is involved in the least conflicts out of our presidents in the last 2 decades. I'm not voting for the guy either, but Trump isn't exactly beholden to Israel like establishment Dems (Biden) are. I'm not saying Trump will save Gaza, but his record during his last term points to less enabling than even a democratic president would.

Food for thought, I guess.

trump couldn't find gaza on a map. don't tell me he's enlightened, his foreign policy was manifest racism.

ignorance isn't aid.

I'm just saying there isn't a lot of credence to the "Trump will be even worse for Gaza", pretending like there is is just scare tactics. Biden literally is aiding a genocide right now, that means a lot more than "Trump might".

Again, I'm not a Trump voter, I just think we should be fair here.

Yes? Is being a Biden critic equal to being a Trump voter? Those things are not the same, but okay. Trump is a bigoted turd, we all know this.

Here's some facts, Biden is supporting a religious ethnostate carrying out at the least a mass displacement and slaughter of a people, and at the most, aiding and abetting a genocide.

Trump is the first US president since Carter to not lead us into a new war or escalate a current conflict. That's a fact.

Mouthing off? Literally my only point was that Trump isn't as much of a war hawk as other presidents, Democrats included, so the argument about him being worse for Palestinians isn't very sound, that's it.

Relax, my dude, we're probably more aligned politically than you're allowing yourself to believe right now and I understand that. This issue hits close to home for me, and I find support for the Palestinian occupation to be pretty bipartisan, unfortunately. Just trying to draw attention to that, it's not so much that Trump is this paragon of peace, it's that Biden isn't, and that sucks.
