Surely not! Would a guy who literally made a Muslim Ban his policy while in office do such a thing?

https://www.newsweek.com/trump-would-level-gaza-without-thought-ex-aide-warns-1886625

Former aide to President Donald Trump and current co-host of ABC's The View is warning Democrats that protest votes could potentially lead to more catastrophic events in the Middle East.
Joe Biden is on pace to face presumptive Republican nominee Trump in a rematch of the 2020 election, but the president's handling of the ongoing conflict in Gaza between Israel and Hamas, which quickly escalated following the October 7 terrorist attacks, has drawn scrutiny from many within the Democratic Party.

"Based on Michigan and Wisconsin results, we know that the protest votesthe sort of ceasefire kind of votes in Michiganwere more than the margin of victory that Joe Biden won victory in Michigan in 2020. This is very real," Alyssa Farah Griffin said.

"I believe a protest vote is part of democracy, I think that it's a good way to make your voice heard. But I would say to these folksthese are Democrats and I'm a Republican so take it or leave itbut as an Arab-American, do you really think that Donald Trump would handle Gaza better than Joe Biden? If he thought it was politically advantageous, [Trump] would level Gaza without a second thought."

On Tuesday, 48,091 Wisconsin voters cast ballots for "uninstructed" to protest the Biden administration policies, accounting for 8.3 percent of the total Democratic votemore than doubling the 20,000 or so votes Biden defeated Trump by in 2020. Last month, more than 100,000 Michigan Democratic voters cast "uncommitted" ballots, while voters in other states have done the same in smaller numbers.

Muslim ban?


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_13769

Executive Order 13769, titled Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States, labeled the "Muslim ban" by Donald Trump and his supporters[1][2] and critics,[3][4] and commonly known as such,[5] or commonly referred to as the Trump travel ban, or Trump Muslim travel ban, was an executive order by President Trump. Except for the extent to which it was blocked by various courts, it was in effect from January 27, 2017, until March 6, 2017, when it was superseded by Executive Order 13780, a second order sharing the title "Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States".
Part of a series of executive actions, Executive Order 13769 lowered the number of refugees to be admitted into the United States in 2017 to 50,000, suspended the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program (USRAP) for 120 days, suspended the entry of Syrian refugees indefinitely, directed some cabinet secretaries to suspend entry of those whose countries do not meet adjudication standards under U.S. immigration law for 90 days, and included exceptions on a case-by-case basis. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) listed these countries as Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Yemen. Iraq was also included until it was dropped following sharp criticism from the Iraqi government and promises of improved vetting of Iraqi citizens in collaboration with the Iraqi government.[6][7] More than 700 travelers were detained, and up to 60,000 visas were "provisionally revoked".[8]
The signing of the Executive Order provoked widespread condemnation and protests and resulted in legal intervention against the enforcement of the order. Critics referred to it as a "Muslim ban," because President Trump had previously called for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the United States,[9] and because all of the affected countries had a Muslim majority, although the affected Muslims were only 12% of the global Muslim population.[10][11] Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates were also notably excluded, despite being located in the same region as the countries subject to the ban and home to large Muslim populations. Despite this fact, critics proposed a theory that this was due to Trump having business ties with these countries.[12][13] A nationwide temporary restraining order (TRO) was issued on February 3, 2017 in the case Washington v. Trump, which was upheld by the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on February 9, 2017. Consequently, the Department of Homeland Security stopped enforcing portions of the order and the State Department re-validated visas that had been previously revoked. Later, other orders (Executive Order 13780 and Presidential Proclamation 9645) were signed by President Trump and superseded Executive Order 13769. On June 26, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the third Executive Order (Presidential Proclamation 9645) and its accompanying travel ban in a 54 decision, with the majority opinion being written by Chief Justice John Roberts.[14]

Now consider the current discourse about Biden and Israel and forgetting the countless stuff Trump has done and his own stance on Israel.

That was then, his plan if he gets in again is to remove citizenship for children of immigrants born in the USA.

All the while, you have immigrants going "Well Biden hasn't done anything for me personally, so I don't think I'll vote.".

Trump wouldn't nuke Gaza - if it gets nuked nobody could use it.

Trump would arrange for the US military to bomb the ever-loving **** out of Gaza and wherever else any Palestinians are left (with like, regular bombs), and in exchange Israel would build a couple Trump Towers on the strip. Definitely no conflicts there no sir Trump is a very legitimate businessperson.

No, they were all quite accurate. You just stopped being able to respond with more bullshit because people kept quoting you saying stupid things.

I am explicitly unhappy. I wish people that shared your rhetoric would get off the internet entirely, all you do is lip service for the right. Me and several others have called you out on this, with images.

I don't know how to explain the concept of "actions speak louder than words." But I've had to explain everything else to you today so I can't say I'm surprised.

Okay, and what actions are those?

Because it seems like your actions are relentless defence of a candidate who is supporting Israel's actions in Gaza, while the most favorable (to your side) interpretation of mine is that I'm doing nothing either way.

It's your inaction and insistence that no one should vote Biden. If you're wondering, check the other four topics you got called out for this, you'll find the story never changes.

Round and around we go.

No one buys your schtick. You stuck your head into American politics, got roasted for it, and then doubled down with hypocrisy.

You don't know better, and don't want to know better.

Point out one time I've insisted this after it was explained just how badly things are rigged against third party candidates.

Not somewhere I've said I can sympathize with people who don't vote him. Somewhere after that that I've attacked people for voting him (as opposed to for outright defending or denying on his Israel stance) on a "lesser of two evils" basis.

When I'm on my next break I'm very much looking forward to seeing what post you claim secretly meant the exact opposite of what it says.
