    Trump is not relevant to this story because 1) he’s not currently in government, 2) is not being asked to stop the war by many voters in his base, and 3) clearly doesn’t give a tinker’s fig about the lives of Palestinians anyway.

      1. “Trump is not relevant because he’s not the president but in January he could be until at least 2029” is a wild argument.
      2. Why does what his base wants matter more than the majority will of the country?
      3. Yeah, that’s the point. He doesn’t care about Palestinians. Whereas Harris does and is trying to thread the diplomatic needle.

        There you go. Trump is not currently in a position to affect policy on Israel and wouldn’t lift a finger even if he were, so what does it matter what he thinks?

          Because. He’s. About. To. Be. President.

          I can’t spell it out any clearer than that. No matter what he believes, in about 3 months Biden won’t be in charge of anything…
