    Correct. He is pro "whatever lie serves his purpose this week", or pro whoever pays him most to support their agenda or business. Want a hotel in Russia? Don't support Ukraine. Tell them you believe us over all the other intelligence agencies next time we poison someone else. Want more properties and resorts in Saudi Arabian? Tell them you believe us when we assassinate another American.

    Here's one of just far too many examples of a foreign country that sways Trump with money.

    Trump posted today...

    "It was great seeing my friends His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Amir of Qatar and His Excellency Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, Prime Minister of Qatar at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida."

    Here's a few of Trump personal ties to Qatar...

    Right-wing news outlet Newsmax received an investment of roughly $50 million from a Qatari royal between 2019 and 2020. Qatar paid $1,103,244 to Trump properties while he was president. Qatar’s also bought an apartment valued at $6.5 million in New York’s Trump World Tower. Before the sale, the Qatari government owned three other units in Trump World Tower, bringing the total of its purchases in the building to $16.5 million.

    Qatar, like every other Muslim-majority country where Trump has actual or potential business interests, was exempted when Trump signed an executive order suspending entry to the United States for citizens from seven Muslim-majority countries—Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.

    In Qatar, as in so many other countries, Trump’s business interests take the front seat ahead of America’s national interest. Moreover, foreign powers see just how easy it is to get on Trump’s good side through flattery and property purchases. The only losers in this equation end up being American workers and taxpayers.

    Back in 2018 it was reported that Qatar tried to lobby 250 Trump ‘influencers' spening $24 million in past 18 months alone. Qatar tried to lobby 250 individuals it felt were “influential” in the Trump administration by offering them trips to Doha.

    In 2019 it was reported that Donald Trump’s trip to the UK and Ireland cost US taxpayers more than £2.7m to date, with more than £1m going towards rooms at five-star London hotels tied to the ruling family of the oil and gas-rich Gulf state of Qatar.

    Stop forgetting about before October 7? You forget an entire 70 year period of time in relations between Israeli’s and Palestinians because it doesn’t fit your black and white narrative.

    Israel has a lot of blame for the current lack of security in the region. There is plenty of blame to go around.

    It is 2024 - and Israel and Palestinians cannot change the past 70 years, and I understand the politics involved with the USA.

    Having said that - Israel and Iran and Hamas and Hez and Netanyahu can all kill each other- I feel for the innocent children and women … but I will spend my resources and time doing what I can to keep the USA out of it. I am already doing what I can to get Iraqi family members into the USA - and it is very expensive.

    I think he gets more - but that is primarily my gut and speaking to people that are Jewish I know or are in politics… so in other words it’s just my opinion and worth nothing

    Trump is so full of sh*t. That's putting it mildly. That delusional con is desperate to alter reality.
    He's nothing but a blow hard psycho, liar, and fraud. He knows he lost the last election. He knows he lost the debate. He knows his MAGA agenda is losing his popularity. He is scared to death of losing to a mixed race woman of color. LOL

    "When a prizefighter loses a fight, the first words out of his mouth are, “I WANT A REMATCH.” Polls clearly show that I won the Debate against Comrade Kamala Harris, the Democrats’ Radical Left Candidate, on Tuesday night, and she immediately called for a Second Debate. She and Crooked Joe have destroyed our Country, with millions of criminals and mentally deranged people pouring into the USA, totally unchecked and unvetted, and with Inflation bankrupting our Middle Class. Everyone knows this, and all of the other problems caused by Kamala and Joe - It was discussed in great detail during the First Debate with Joe, and the Second Debate with Comrade Harris. She was a no-show at the Fox Debate, and refused to do NBC & CBS. KAMALA SHOULD FOCUS ON WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE DURING THE LAST ALMOST FOUR YEAR PERIOD. THERE WILL BE NO THIRD DEBATE!"

    I also will not be judged for being a proud American. Let's vote for the candidate that didn't try to invalidate the votes of millions of Americans in violent attempt to overturn the election to hold on to power!

    C'mon, ATW finding a clip of one blonde blue eyed Aryan hottie on Fox News quoting a random Jewish person ("Steven was the founder of a sports and entertainment company called Myriad Associates, working with...Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, Disney’s World on Ice, Nickelodeon Live, and the World Wrestling Federation") about the Middle East situation is enough to swing my vote to the right. You're some sort of woke leftist commie if you think otherwise and we don't want you and your kind in the great State of Floribama.

    I’ve heard from many Jewish people who absolutely will not support Trump. Besides anecdotal evidence I’ve seen little other evidence polling or registration that indicates a
    Large scale shift towards Trump among Jews.

    While the Democratic Party is split on opinions of Israel Harris has made it clear that she will continue support of Israel and most Jewish people oppose Trump on several other issues.

    The Sxi Day war started by a preemptive strike on Egypt and Syrian forces by Israeli Air Force. That was one reason why Israel was so successful.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six-Day_War

    Israel also launched a raid into Egyptian territory during the Suez Crisis
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suez_Crisis

    And has launched preemptive and unprovoked strikes on its enemies many times.

    The lines from the Beatles song Nowhere Man epitomizes Trump.

    He's a real nowhere man
    Sitting in his nowhere land
    Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
    Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
    Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

    Doesn't have a point of view
    Knows not where he's going to

    He's as blind as he can be
    Just sees what he wants to see

    Well, he can't, legally, if he does win.

    Right now.

    With current laws.

    Without Project 2025.
