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.

      The irony of you losers high handing people. You lot lost this last election.

      Who do you think you are? You’re right down here in the mud with the rest of us. The party brand is in absolute tatters and trust in it has never been lower. Heck of a job. And then you try to lecture people? Its absurd.

      If you voted for genocide…that was a mistake.

      I didn’t vote for genocide. What did you do?

        I didn’t vote for genocide.

        Do you feel ok about that in the context of what’s about to happen in Palestine?

          Do I feel okay about voting for an anti-genocide candidate? Of course. Why wouldn’t I?

          The question is: why are so many people okay voting for a pro-genocide candidate?

          We shouldn’t even be having this conversation. No Democratic candidate should be supporting genocide. Ever. And nobody should be defending her!

            Why wouldn’t I?

            Because you’ve enabled Trump to grind palestinians into the dust.

            Who do you think Palestinians wanted to win the election?

              There’s a ceasefire right now because of Trump. How many Palestinians do you think died while the Biden admin was vetoing the UN security council to stop the genocide?

                Oh yes. I think he magically created this ceasfire right before floating his plan for ethnic cleansing right?

                  “However, there indeed seems to be widespread agreement among diplomats and officials involved that Trump-related factors were quite important in finally spurring the deal to come together.”

                  You also realize that Trump’s comments don’t equate to ethnic cleansing right?

                  Governor Gavin Newsom: “We need people in other states to house those impacted by the fires during cleanup & rebuilding efforts.”

                  Democrats: “Oh, look at that. He’s helping people.”

                  Trump: “We need people in neighboring countries to house those impacted by the total destruction under Biden during cleanup & rebuilding efforts.”

                  Democrats: “He’s ethnic cleansing! He’s a Nazi!”

                  Independent: “Why can’t Israeli Jews help house Palestinians?”

                  Jews in Israel: “Because Palestinians are less human than us!”

                  Independent: “That sounds messed up. I think Israeli Jews might have messed up ideology.”

                  Jews in Israel & AIPAC: “Antisemite!!! Nazi!”

                  Democrats: “Antisemite Nazi!!!”

        One of two people was going to win this election and unless you voted for the other one, you helped elect Trump.

                Jill Stein is a Russian stooge. Endorsing her is a good way to tank any credibility you may have ever had.

                  There they go. How’d that work out for you? Will you ever stop feeding off the establishment teat? You think if they lose two more elections that you’ll be ready?

            Those 29% are fucking idiots. Trump is making things worse exactly like everyone with an IQ above room temperature said he would.

              Undecided voter to Democrats… “Why do you support genocide?” Democrats, “Listen here you fucking idiot. I hope you get cancer for questioning us. Do as we say you fascist! You ain’t black if you don’t vote for us.”
