‘They get along unbelievably well’: Trump abruptly claims Israel and Palestinians ‘work together beautifully’

Prresident Donald Trump asserted on Wednesday that the Israel government and the Palestinian Authority “get along unbelievably well.”

During a press conference with State of Palestine President Mahmoud Abbas, Trump praised Palestinian National Authority for its efforts to combat ISIS.

“I also applaud the Palestinian Authority’s continued cooperation with Israel,” Trump said. “They get along unbelievably well… They work together beautifully.” The U.S. president noted that there could be “no lasting peace” unless all Palestinian leaders spoke out against hate.

“There’s such hatred,” he added. “But hopefully there won’t be such hatred for very long.”

I don't think that the Palestinians who have been Ghettoized would agree.

Then again given FF45 dictatorial aspirations he probably thinks that is a perfect example of betters working well with their lessers.

Seriously, he runs with and forms opinions based on the last person he talked to. That's how to manipulate him. Simply be the last person on the schedule to discuss an issue and you win. You can make him think anything, as long as you are the last before he commits a decision.

This outrageous statement is a misdirect from the Comey hearing. It appears to have worked.
