Where’s the “sort by most downvotes”? This is absolutely. Is Trump/Musk paying infiltrators? Seriously, dude can’t read the room. What’s going on here?

I don’t know if I would count “making an announcement on social media” as stopping the genocide, but I understand that for Trump voters the bar on anything must be very low.

In that article I don't see that Dump (or Biden) did much more than posturing around this. Also anything that refers to this conflict as a 15 month war is suspect.

I love that you're out here praising Trump for something that happened before he even enters office. Fucking talk about "mental olympics" lmao

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml -5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You do realize Trump sent an envoy to Israel which forced the genocide to stop right?

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

And he didn't do this a year ago why? Oh right, exchanging lives for the reelection campaign.

Joe Biden kept sending bombs to Israel.

Nothing Trump says means anything, let's check back in a month.

[–] mriguy@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Trump’s plan for ending the genocide is to let Netanyahu complete it.

Can’t commit further genocide if there’s nobody left to genocide! 🤡

Check back in in a month

Seems more likely he'll just let things devolve further...

Trump would not elaborate on what he meant by his threat — first announced on social media in early December — that "all hell will break out" if a deal is not made.

"It will not be good for Hamas, and it will not be good, frankly, for anyone," Trump said. -Source

Not sure he understands the implications of his own statement...

Stopping a genocide is the opposite of devolving. Trumps statement is a direct threat to Israel. There is no leverage or "worse" for Hamas. Democrats trying to spin Trump stopping the genocide into something bad is comical.

Trumps statement is a direct threat to Israel.

You realize he's literally threatening Hamas here, no?

"It will not be good for Hamas, and it will not be good, frankly, for anyone," Trump said.

He seems more likely to stop the genocide by allowing Isreal to just kill everyone so there's no one left to genocide....

They are more likely to give Israel a lot of leeway, including releasing Biden’s hold on the transfer of certain weapons to finish the job as soon as possible. Source

Well, let's see what happens.

I also highly doubt he's gonna do anything. Add on top of that, that very few outside countries seem to care about Trump, much less respect him enough to actually listen to anything he has to say.

[–] puppetx@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Shouldn’t the text read something like, “republicans looking at the receipts for the wall Mexico was supposed to pay for”

[–] Xoriff@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

100% on your side. But careful not to set yourself up for the same legit criticism that we throw at R's. Whataboutism.

edit: but also that would be a pretty great meme, tbf

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml -2 points 2 days ago

Genocide is a bit worse than the wall of whataboutism. But if you want to go there Democrats are building it too so it would be a spidey meme.

Right after he releases his tax returns, oh wait by his own words he stands by nothing.
