    Yeah, I just don’t see any situation where Trump does shit to help the Palestinians. The one angle maybe is that Saudi Arabia has some pull with whatever they have on his son, but I see Trump being more caught up in getting revenge, saving his own ass, and thrusting America into a dictatorship to really give a shit. Israel takes advantage of the chaos and doubles down on the genocide. I don’t see either situation (Trump or Biden) working out well for Palestinians, though Dems are at least making some movement on trying to reign Israel in (not very effectively, but there’s been some attempts).

    Plus you’ve got a guaranteed war in Europe with Trump turning his back on NATO allies and leaving them to the Russians. The world becomes exponentially worse for everyone with a Trump win. Anyone willing to push us towards that based solely on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict is delusional.

      It’s quite an irony that even the soulists are paying more attention to what’s realistic than the marxist-leninists. The MLs seem to have completely retreated from reality and decided if they don’t vote they get to live in a fantasy land where they’re not to blame for their country’s support of genocide. And even the soulists, the antirealists, are making decisions based on what outcomes in this election are realistic.
