Donald Trump has suggested large numbers of Palestinians should leave Gaza to “just clean out” the whole strip, after ordering the US military to restart shipments of 2,000lb bombs to Israel.

The US president said he wanted Gaza residents to move to neighbouring nations, and that they could be displaced “temporarily or could be long-term”, after a phone call with Jordan’s King Abdullah on Saturday.

“I said to him: I’d love you to take on more because I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now and it’s a mess, it’s a real mess. I’d like him to take people,” Trump said, when asked about the call.

He also suggested Egypt as a destination for Gaza residents, and said he would raise the issue with President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi on Sunday.

All these comments thinking this is a gotcha moment for people who didn't vote for the Democrats.

Biden supported the last 15 months of genocide, supplied, the weapons, political cover and support.

The only reason Gaza hasn't been totally emptied is because Egypt refused to accept millions of refugees.

Trump is only saying what the Democrats believe but were too disingenuous to admit.

Oh sure, just take the Palestenians, and shove them somewhere else. Good, endless angry people consolidating on another territory.

This makes me think of the many people within the chain between Trump and Netanyahu. The spineless motherfuckers personally handling these weapons need to grow the fuck up and start replacing warheads with packet ramen.

Congrats American leftists, this is what you wanted. You got played and it was so damn obvious. “But Biden…” well enjoy Trump.

The American right united and the American left splintered into little self made groups with special labels and began fighting, hating and rejecting each other.

“I didn’t vote trump, i just refused to vote Biden!” Well you got your choice then, so shut the fuck up and eat it. You think you hurt the democrats by losing them the election? You think they care or will lose money?

You guys essentially chopped off your own foot and are happy cause you sprayed blood on someone you didn’t like.

Ps: American leftists have no fucking clue what a leftist is. Hating and calling fascist on everyone who is slightly right or even left of you is not being a leftist.

Trump yet again pushing for genocide

That should have been the header

This is a horribly immoral and unjust thing to even suggest. That said, if the only other alternative is that they stay in Gaza and get exterminated by these psychos in Israel, then I have to think that relocation, and living, are the superior option. THAT said, none of the countries he's talking about are going to take them.
