Yeah. That's what you get when your leader prioritized loyalty over competence.
Americans first lmao
That's not what he said. He said
America first
you know, like a list.
America first, then South America, Europe, Asia.....
They really should learn their ABCs then, cuz Afghanistan would be first alphabetically.
First in the firing line.
"Incompetence Everywhere"... wasn't that the Orange Pedophile's campaign slogan?
And courruption. Don't forget corruption.
oh that was just implied!
Fair.
But imagine if they were competent.
As though any of this is accidental.
It’s not incompetence, it’s deliberate.
Are the Israelis still turning away folks from the shelters that don't look like them? They did that last year.

Sorry it's on X but I can't find any other source. So it may be sensationalist, recycled from 2025, or made up.
Regardless — sorry, zhongguoren, but you aren't the chosen people.
not incompetence. they just simply didn't care.
So which is worse: being stuck in Israel, or stuck in the US?
Israel has socialized medicine, at least.
Not for everyone.
Which the US pays for...
Stuck in Gaza or the west bank
A cynic would say they're hoping for American deaths in Israel to use as further justification for war...
But it's gonna ring pretty hollow after how many Americans Israel has killed.
