'This is ethnic cleansing': Trump faces backlash over Gaza proposal

I don’t see any appropriate backlash to any of his shit so far.

I guess all the “Genocide Joe” commenters aren’t getting paid to skew the election anymore, so they won’t be here to comment.

What a shock that no one could've ever seen coming.

Oh wait:

I can't believe there are actually people who are surprised about his 'proposal' at all. Like.. everyone saw this coming, right? Plenty of people have been warning other people for years that Trump would do this sort of shit.

But hey, what do I know. I'm just an alarmist fearmonger. Or whatever they used to call me.

B-b-but muh genocide joe & both sides are the same

"Clean out that whole thing."

He doesn't even pretend it's something other than ethnic cleansing. Just literally "clean out" the Palestinians.

And we're powerless to stop him.

Well at least it's not genocide!

Here is my bOtHsIdEs Pikachu face. :|

I'm sure Kamala was going to be exactly the same. /s

Sorry screen reader users.

It'S BeTtEr ThAn GeNoCiDe

Stay on message, Democrats! Remember, it wasn't the Democrats fault for losing, it was those loony leftists for going against the approved narrative of the Democratic Party. The Dems aren't out of touch or negligent, and Bill Mahr is funny and relevant.

God the comments suck on this post

Of course it is ethnic cleansing. But in his opinion, it is the good kind of ethnic cleansing. Just like deporting immigrants, or sometimes even Native Americans...

Backlash only matters if he or anyone he surrounds himself with actually gives a shit.

Centrists are suddenly unhappy now that trump is implementing their only policy for them.

Love that all the pearl clutchers are in this thread to say that NOW the genocide is bad, as if they'll catch leftists in a whataboutism.

The truth is that Trump is giving the same carte blanche that Biden did to Bibi. It remains on the people of Israel to stop this conflict, as it always has. You can't pretend the genocide is only bad when your enemy is doing it, this was the same plan under Biden. Trump just likes bragging about the cruelty, whereas Biden was smart enough to pretend to care.

when utilitarianism seems less burdensome than whatever twisted knot the "genocide joe" folks have to tell themselves justify their actions, you gotta wonder about the choices they made.

Where's my Jill stien supports when ya need them! /s

US President Donald Trump is facing widespread criticism and accusations of proposing ethnic cleansing after stating that he would like to “just clean out” Gaza and relocate its Palestinian population to neighbouring countries.

Speaking aboard Air Force One during a flight from Las Vegas to Miami on Saturday, Trump described Gaza as a “demolition site” and suggested moving its residents to Jordan and Egypt.

“I’d like Egypt to take people. I’d like Jordan to take people,” Trump said. “You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing.”

He added that the move could be either temporary or long-term, saying, “something has to happen”

To everybody who voted against Kamala Harris because she didn't change her stance on Gaza, how does it feel to be played harder than a tenor saxophone?

Biden was a poor president, maybe given Harris was his vice-president we could guess she might be a poor president also. Trump on the other hand is evil. Anyone that voted for him should be ashamed of themselves. If he was running against a bag of frozen brussel sprouts the bag of sprouts would make a better president than him.

Two days after he was inaugurated the UN was reporting 92% of residential buildings were damaged and destroyed. The genocide was almost done before Trump got in office and people are still out here pretending Biden was any better.

EDIT: elected -> inaugurated

You'll often see Zionists condemn Egypt and Syria for not taking the Palestinians "oh the Palestinians are so bad that even the other Muslim countries won't take them". No, they just don't want to be complicit in ethnic cleansing.

Ethnic "clearing"

The day Trump actually tempers a decision based on the feedback the world gives him, I'll eat my hat. He doesn't give a shit about this kind of criticism. He's right. Everyone else is wrong. One of the few genuine stable geniuses in this world.

definitively yes

different president, same soulless husk

The guy who defines everything by "great countries " and "shithole countries" wants to clean the shithole out and all the shitty people. Hmmm
