WASHINGTON – One day after his trip to the Middle East to celebrate a ceasefire agreement, President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House on Tuesday that Hamas would disarm in “a reasonable period of time” or the U.S. will disarm them “perhaps violently.”
“If they don’t disarm, we will disarm them and it will happen quickly and perhaps violently,” Trump said. “But they will disarm.”
Trump was asked how he would disarm Hamas, if it came to that. “I don’t have to explain that to you,” Trump replied. “They know I’m not playing games.”
Good thing he brokered that peace deal so he could promptly threaten Palestinians with more violence. They might not have heard the threat over the sound of all the bombs and crying children.
Oh no, more threats of violence in Gaza, from the man who was shunned for the peace prize!
sigh
Taking up smoking looks to be a good way to deal with this reality.
Sometimes, all Trump would have to do to score a big win would be to shut the fuck up. Covid-19 is a prime example. No one could possibly have blamed him for a global pandemic. He didn’t even need to lead, he just needed to shut the fuck up and let people hand the problem.
But he thought he could politicize a natural disaster. Weaponize it. And we all saw what happened.
Same thing happens here. He just needed to shut up and take credit for 5, 10, maybe 20 years of relative peace while Israel goes back to genociding Palestinians the slow way again. Instead, he can’t resist charging in with threats to show how tough he is. Now, who could blame Gazans for keeping some weapons just in case Trump decides to score some political points by murdering a bunch of them?
So much peace from the orange Fuhrer. I can’t believe they didn’t give him the Nobel. Travesty.
The orange cancer really wants to start a war so he can be a “wartime president” and cancel voting…
Also, nice distraction from the Epstein files. RELEASE THE FILES! PROOVE YOU AREN’T A PEDO, PEDOnald!
Sounds like something a rapist would say.
Sure, genocide is bad, but why not start a second front so we can get it done sooner.
Because the other one was a woman of color.
