For his stance on Palestine alone:
“Get it over with and let’s get back to peace and stop killing people. And that’s a very simple statement,” Trump said. “They have to get it done. Get it over with and get it over with fast because we have to -- you have to get back to normalcy and peace.”
The former president also pledged to bar refugees from Gaza under an expansion of his first-term travel ban on Muslim-majority countries; expel immigrants who sympathize with Hamas; revoke the visas of foreign students deemed “anti-American” or “antisemitic”; and impose “strong ideological screening” to keep out foreign nationals who “want to abolish Israel”.
Surely you can't interpret that as him wanting to protect Palestinians, right?
I could give you other things, like what he said he'll do to and how he's treated transgender people, that is harmful, for example. There's many other similar topics where he as, in the most generous view, unhelpful at best, if not actively harmful. I'm assuming it probably won't change your position if you don't accept the earlier citations and you somehow think I'm wrong still though. If you do care, it's easy to learn more.
Media talking points is all yo have. Pathetic.
Wow, you're a dumb one aren't you. Are you a bot? Everything you post just accuses everyone else of repeating "media talking points" or whatever. You literally have no supporting arguments except saying what others post is invalid. What does that say about your opinion if informed opinions are invalid?
*puts fingers in ears*
The mantra of the Trump supporter when confronted with facts.
I wouldn't say that if that wasn't what you're doing. Be smarter. Think for yourself. Take in all viewpoints and then decide what you think. All I see is idiots spewing what cnn and msnbc tells them to say. Same way on the other side. There are plenty of morons spewing their shit too. People need to think independently. It's a lost are and is literally why the country is divided. By design.
I linked the AP and The Guardian, not MSNBC. I haven't watched mainstream news (by my own choice) in my life. I'm not repeating media talking points because I got it from the media. I'm repeating media talking points because the media talks about stuff that's relavent.
You need to learn to think at all and to accept that other information can come that doesn't agree with your worldview and that's OK. You should accept that information and adjust your beliefs accordingly, not just dismiss it because it makes you feel bad.
You just proved my point but you're too dumb to realize it.
Lol.
