Trump went on to add that Israel was the most powerful lobby in the USA 15 years ago and pledged that he will back it if he wins the upcoming presidential elections. He also threw jabs at the Majority Leader of the United States Senate Chuck Schumer and stated that he has become "like a Palestinian" despite being pro-Israel and a jew back in the day.

"He says “Palestinian” as if it’s someone subhuman. I despise all US politicians."
"God please help Gaza, All Eyes on Rafah."
"Trump is them. Everything bad in the world is them."
"Israeli politicians are more critical of the Gaza war than American politicians...shake my head."
"He's all over the place! At least Genocide Joe is consistent in his total unequivocal support for genocide!"
"That’s so wild. Sometimes I think, how could this corrupt system get any worse? Then Trump opens his mouth and shows me how."
