i know we here on hexbear are smarter than to actually believe him, right? like he sees that it’s one of biden’s biggest failures so he’s like “obviously i wouldn’t be fucking this up so bad” and as soon as he gets in office he’s gonna sit down with netanyahu and they’re going to flesh out a 10 point plan to get hamas to come to the negotiating table by executing a palestinian child every hour on israeli national television.
If I genuinely believed that Trump would stop the war in Palestine I would advocate for Trump as the lesser evil.
I don’t believe that. And Biden won’t either. So I advocate for neither. But you would see me openly state that people should vote for him if I believed it.
He probably wont 180 harder than Milei, maybe like 120-150, Im not going to vote but if theres an endorsement from Palestinians for a US candidate I probably will. I doubt it, but it wouldnt take much for me to vote for literally anyone, anyone who literally just goes on a stage and says free Palestine gets my vote, and no one is going to do that, its insane. The politicians arent even willing to lie about it. There is not a single person on the ballot who is pro Palestine. I fucking hate this country and its people.
I really hope this is real because if Donald Trump thinks Israel is seriously damaging its reputation across the world, it means all pro-Palestinian movements and protests are having an effect. They’ve managed to spook the upper class
Trump and Trump supporters seem to be holding up the Abraham Accords as Trump’s big accomplishment in the region, which would’ve supposedly led to a resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
Of course the problem is here is that peace does not equal a just solution to the conflict. The Abraham Accords were always pro-Israeli, with the explicitly stated goal of isolating the Palestinians in the region and forcing them to come to the table with Israel, which they would’ve done from a weak position at that point. And of course the Abraham Accords relied on quid pro quos that led to further destabilization in the region - selling weapons to the UAE and Bahrain during the Yemen conflict, destabilizing the Sudanese peace process, and recognizing Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara. So although Trump is going to tout peace and we’re going to be subjected to a new round of “trump was an antiwar president,” his idea of peace is a pro-Israeli one and far from what our idea of what peace in the region looks like.
Trump is an opportunistic grifter while Biden is an ideologically-committed Zionist and imperialist who thinks the only issue here is that the PR is bad.
This makes me think Trump could help by sheer, dumb luck, but then I remembered that an opportunistic grifter isn’t going to challenge the military-industrial complex in any meaningful way.
