"On Tuesday, at a stunning joint press conference alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump announced the US will be taking over and running Gaza, potentially for the foreseeable future.

“Everybody I've spoken to loves the idea of the United States owning that piece of land, developing and creating thousands of jobs with something that will be magnificent,” Trump told reporters after a three-hour meeting with Netanyahu. "

She said she would do nothing different. The genocide was obvious for months prior. Why would you continue defending this at this point? It’s been gross for over a year. Dems lost for many reasons, and on this issue it is fucking inexcusable.

You've got four years to learn why you're wrong. Hopefully it'll only be four years.

Harris's plan: Gazans continue to suffer with constant bombardments and crumbling infrastructure. The US offers minor humanitarian aid and pays lip service to their plight.

Trump's plan: Extermination of all Gazans in a massive US-backed and Israeli-executed ethnic cleansing campaign in order to turn Gaza into a vacation spot for rich Israelis. Possible location for the next Trump hotel and casino.

Trump's plan sounds a lot like what reality has been. Was he in the Biden administration?

I don't remember child-skull paved roads leading to the POTUS-branded casino and resort spa that Biden built, gotta link?

Guess those 20 thousand children killed themselves.

She said she would do nothing different from Biden.

This is different from Biden. Very different.

Believe it or not, things can get worse even if they were bad before and pretending this was Harris' plan as well is just silly.
