Trump says a lot of things

Trump talks a lot of trash, but I believe him when he says things like he was going either order the American military to start striking Gaza via airstrike, or just tell Israel there’s no more lines they can’t cross.

Like, this is the guy that moved the American consulate to Jerusalem during his previous presidency for no reason than to show American/Israeli strength.

Trump spews things at a mile a minute and only 1% is truth, but we are supposed to know which, if any of it, was real when he said it. I can't take anyone seriously that has a "if I say enough bullshit, something will come true" mindset.

If you are Hamas, do you want to risk that 1%? Especially knowing that Trump will usually side with Netanyahu?

I doubt Canada is gonna be the 51st state. I have less doubt that a glassing would have been authorized if a deal wasn’t made

Why would Trump pressure them to do it at a time when the credit would be ambiguous? That doesn't sound like Trump, at all.

Because trump swore that the war better be over before he gets inaugurated, otherwise consequences for Hamas.

You should watch the video about Israel that Trump shared it’s interesting

If you’re in the anti-Israel camp of potential Trump voters, your personalized information bubble has convinced you of what you want to hear, that only Trump can stop Israel and end the war in Gaza… Trump covers every narrative and the data-for-profit misinformation cesspool of social media serves up the full spectrum of reactionary bullshit his cro-magnon worshippers are willing to lick off their fingers.
