BREAKING: Trump TORPEDOES Republicans at the last second by announcing that he'll "move to Israel" and run for prime minister if Americans "get tired" of him as we head to the polls. He just said the quiet part out loud... "Mr. President, I just want to clarify something you said earlier when it comes to Israel aid. We understand we've cut off aid to Israel, that we were giving them $4 billion, and you're no longer going to be giving them $4 billion," Fox's Brian Kilmeade said to Trump during an interview. "We were giving them $4 billion," said Trump. "We are, but it gets cut off at the end of the year." "Why?" asked Kilmeade. "Why? Because they don't need it, Brian. I mean, I asked them, because they don't need it," said Trump. "And because why should we suffer the slings from lunatics like an El-Sayed when they don't need it? It's a bad talking point, because you say, why don't we give everybody $4 billion? Israel's our number one. We give them more than anybody else. And they no longer need it. We've been doing it for years. I've been doing it. But Israel is a very thriving country." "They don't need it. If they did need it, I would say keep it going. But Bibi Netanyahu, we reached an agreement on that," added Trump. "And can I be honest with you? He brought it up. He brought it up. He said, I think it would be appropriate if we do not receive aid. Because he understands that this is one of their points of contention. Israel's been a great ally, much more reliable than most. I mean, look what happened with Europe, although they did give me Greenland for the United States." Now, hold on a second. Cut off aid to Israel? That sure doesn't sound like Trump, the most rabidly "Israel First" President in American history. This is the same guy who launched a disastrous war of aggression against Iran, with no American interests at stake, just because Netanyahu asked him to. So what's going on here? The answer, you won't be surprised to learn, is not what it seems. Netanyahu is indeed pushing for an end to formal American financial support for his country, but it's not because he no longer wants American bombs, bullets, and drones to fuel his bloody dreams of conquest. It's because he realizes that Israel's approval in the U.S. has cratered thanks to the slaughter in Gaza. In a few short years, most Americans will likely support ending ALL aid to Israel. Netanyahu is getting ahead of that problem by removing the easy to see (and thus curtail) financial aid in favor of a deeper, more opaque entwining of the U.S. and Israeli militaries. Rather than $4 billion in aid, Israeli officials are proposing a $16 billion joint American-Israeli fund for researching and developing new weapons. In other words, our support wouldn't evaporate, it would shapeshift. The proposed 2027 National Defense Authorization Act would greatly expand these joint-defense initiatives. On top of that, the new arrangement would give Congress less direct control to curtail Israeli aggression. “But this is a Netanyahu ruse to say, ‘Okay, we don’t want the aid, but let’s just have joint production on the weapons,'" explained Rep. Ro Khanna. In other words, Trump isn't suddenly deciding to revert to his promises of putting America's interests first, he's simply occluding the ways in which he prioritizes Israel. Which is why it makes sense that he'd fantasize about moving there. "So I'm the number one, I was so voted, I'm at 99% approval rating in Israel can you believe it?" Trump said during that Fox interview. "In fact, if people ever got tired of me in the U.S. I'll move to Israel and become Prime minister. But I'm at ninety— Think of it! I'm at ninety-nine— I have the highest approval rating of anybody in history, because I've been— You know I've been— They've been a great partner but what we did, we stopped Iran." While Trump appears to have pulled that 99% number straight out of his diaper-clad rear end, he does indeed enjoy high approval in Israel with a recent Gallup poll showing that 62% of Israelis approve of U.S. leadership. Of course, that's cold comfort for the American people, who are being forced to pay higher grocery and gas prices because of a war that was started solely to aid in Israel's territorial expansion in the Middle East. Israel may approve of Trump, but the U.S. does not. And today, we show him that at the polls! Please ❤️ and share if you wish that Trump WOULD move to Israel!
