Just a reminder, under Trump spending on the genocide against the Palestinian people went from 4.7 b at the end of Obama/begining of Trump's time in office, down to 4.3b byt he end (just military support for israel not humanitarian aide).
Under Biden Harris it went the opposite direction, from a spending of 4.3b at the start to a whopping 12.5b in support of the genocide in 2024.
I cant say I'm happy with Trump winning, but at least I can say the palestinians might be better off. All I know is this is why Harris, more than anything else, was never going to see my vote.
well to be fair i never said he would pull out military aide completly. So under him the palestinians arent out of the woods. They just have a bit more of a fighting chance if he follows his pattern from last time.
@freemo @ABScientist Reminder that his pattern from last time includes moving the US embassy to Jerusalem by request of one of his donors. This time, the same donor wants the West Bank annexed. I am pretty sure this will be way worse under Trump.
