If Trump does a better job with Gaza than Biden a lot of liberals will owe a lot of people a lot of apologies.
What planet are you on? He’s already greenlit ‘the gazification of the west bank’ and exacerbated the genocide, lifted sanctions, and has suggested a little light ethnic clensing so he can get to developing Gaza. Just like everyone with a clue said he would pre election to appease his massive West Bank donors.
Yeah, because of course this is the only single issue liberals might be angry about...
Better how? At least Biden wasn't arresting students for having an anti-Israel opinion.
Yes, actually, he was.

Americans must have the memory and/or the attention span of a goldfish.
American liberals like to think of themselves as more intelligent than their Republican counterparts but the truth is that they’re just more well spoken. When it comes to actual knowledge of the world and history and economics they’re basically the same level of indoctrinated.
Biden was not deporting students. Biden was arresting students for protesting against genocide
Source?

Can you send me a source on Trump deporting student protesters first? Since we are asking sources on obvious facts.

I really hope you read these articles and round out your knowledge of what is actually happening.
My comment was sarcastic.
Is it possible to send a source without resorting to sarcasm?
Another person did so above and you ignored them so I don't think so.
Those are sources about what you sarcastically asked, not sources on Biden arresting students for protesting against genocide.
Oh it's lemmygrad you can't see it

That explains a lot, thanks. I compared the six links and it seems under Biden local law enforcement was involved while the federal response was hands-off, meanwhile Trump issued an executive order targeting international students who protested and ICE is handling arrests.
Do you not see the difference between the federal approach? Or is anything happening under Biden his fault, and the same for Trump?
Biden was very much painting students as agressors and there were top down orders for crackdown on protesters.
Trump only took what Biden did further. Similarly ICE was already heavily abusing migrants under Biden.
Democrats just don't care when their guy does it in the same way Republicans don't care when Trump does it.
"... but the trains ran on time!"
Neither of those absolute morons have any interest in making any “trains run on time.”
You've never taken a hint in your life.
I just don’t think you’re smart enough to make the point you’re trying to make is the issue here chief.
No, they'll be too busy dealing with the monkeys flying out of his butt.
