Trump has waffled on whether the Israel-Gaza war should end. But speaking to wealthy donors behind closed doors, he said that he supports Israel’s right to continue “its war on terror.”

Former president Donald Trump promised to crush pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses, telling a roomful of donors — a group that he joked included “98 percent of my Jewish friends” — that he would expel student demonstrators from the United States, according to participants in the roundtable event with him in New York.

    The fact that no matter who I vote for it’s gonna end up with kids being killed on my dime is the problem. At least Biden will pretend to feel bad about it, which is all I’ve come to expect from my government.

    I’ve long given up on the notion that I get to vote for someone I like in this system.

      I wish that “likability” wasn’t such a huge part of the equation. Doing the right thing and being effective at it should be a bigger factor.
