This is the highest death toll in a day in nearly two weeks, one analysis found.

    If there’s one thing I know about Trump, it’s that occasionally he does good for the wrong reasons. I’m hoping this is one of those times.

      He LOVES Saudi money so likely as not he’ll push for giving the Saudis a contract to rebuild. Can’t rebuild in a warzone, and if there’s no buildings it’s hard to justify the grift. So yeah, what you say makes sense. I hope for peace for Gaza.

        Absolutely. Every single government deal made for the next two years is going to profit Trump personally to some extent. That’s why he ran a second time, because there’s no better way to monetize everything you do than being the president of the United States.

        Hell, Obama makes a cool half a mil just for standing at a podium for 30 minutes and talking.

        I say two because, historically, it’s a near certainty that a president who enters office with Congress will lose control at the mid-terms. It happened to Clinton, Dubya, Obama, and Trump. Trump will have four years as POTUS, but only two of them with total power.
