In short:

Donald Trump has claimed victory in the US presidential election, saying his political movement is the greatest the world has ever seen.

The Republican candidate swamped his Democratic rival Kamala Harris in critical swing states.

What's next?

The Republicans were on track to win both chambers of congress, too, paving the way for Trump's agenda to be enacted in full.

zero_gravitas posted a very educational video showing younger biden saying "if there were not an Israel, we’d have to invent one" and "the best 3 billion dollar investment we make". So I don't think he has a history of even pretending to stop them. It will be the same thing again, as it has been with almost every US president.

I remember having the luck of being in front of a tv when, before trump won for the first time, I saw him complaining about why american money goes to israel and if he wins he would stop that. At that time I knew his position would change completely once he was elected. But if anything, the crazy orange candidate has a much better history of being "against" israel than the other senile, though in the end it made no difference. Both supported them as much they could, and the girl would do the same.

But the fact that she showed them support just makes it worse. At least people who voted trump for the first time could be fooled into thinking he would do something about israel (if they ignore all his other insane promises).

So, you don't have to worry. Israel wise I don't think anything changed and the genocide would not be worse (as it can't anyway) if trump lost.

Edit: I can't find his post, but here's the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HZs-v0PR44 Lovely leaders they have there. Not that Australia fares much better with military issues, but at least we are not so powerful, therefore not so dangerous.
