Donald Trump has a message for voters who disapprove of President Joe Bidens Israel/Gaza policy from the left: The Republican intends to be vastly worse.

In theory, Donald Trump might recognize the electoral opportunity and try to appeal to those who disapprove on the incumbent presidents Israel/Gaza policy from the left. In practice, the former president has an unsubtle message for Bidens critics: If given the chance, the Republican intends to be vastly worse.
The Biden White House, for example, acknowledged this week that it is, as the Associated Press reported, weighing measures to help Palestinians living in the United States who want to bring family from the war-torn region.
Soon after, as Reuters reported, the presumptive GOP nominee shared his thoughts on the subject at a campaign rally.
Note, at one of his campaign events yesterday, Trump appeared to goad his followers in Wisconsin into booing Palestinian refugees.
At the same event, the former president also vowed to restore and expand the Muslim ban he imposed during his first term......
The former president also endorsed ongoing Israeli military operations, saying, We have to let Israel complete their war on terror. Its a horrible thing, but they have to do it. Trump added that Israel must clean out the cancer.
Lets also not forget a New York Times report from March that said top members of Trumps team want to expel Palestinians from Gaza.
Its as if the Republican is going out of his way to alienate voters who, given their frustrations with Bidens policy, might be inclined to give Trump a second look.

Your towns and villages will now be accepting people from Gaza and various other places, Trump said, eliciting boos from the crowd. Under no circumstances shall we bring thousands of refugees. Last week, Trump described the pro-Palestinian protests as driven by tremendous hate while asserting that the violence at a 2017 white nationalist rally with some Trump supporters in Charlottesville, Virginia, when he was president was small by comparison.

TFG will bring back the Muslim ban, give Bibi free reign to bomb and destroy Gaza and expel Palestinians from Gaza so that Jared can build his resorts.

Not going to blame them entirely, leveling Gaza was not the answer either, yet few in power voiced their opinions ...

He hates humanity, he only loves real estate. "Clean it out" that's very fascist language.
