WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said Tuesday he wants the U.S. to take ownership of the Gaza Strip and redevelop it after Palestinians are resettled elsewhere.
“We will own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the site,” Trump said a start of a joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

    It’s not the genocide that was unpopular because of the protestors, it was voting that was unpopular because of the protest. The protests brought far more attention to the situation, and people stayed home on voting day because of it.

    If you think that the only difference between Democrats and Republicans was their support for the Israeli situation then you’re completely delusional.

      4 years from now, when democrats are running on building the wall, mass deportations, getting tough on crime, banning trans people from public spaces, and continuing whatever war Trump starts, you will be telling anyone telling the democrats that this is unpopular “shut up, this really is super popular and the democrats really can win by adopting the republican platform from 4 years ago”.
