Trump Says Hamas Attack On Israel Is A Direct Result Of 2020 Election Being ‘Stollen’ From Him

Trying once again to make a tragedy all about himself, failed one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump said Friday that the horrific attack on Israel by Hamas terrorists that has killed thousands of people was a result of the 2020 presidential election being “stollen” from him.

On his financially troubled Truth Social site, Trump posted this absurd all-caps claim:

“THE ATTACK ON ISRAEL WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED, ZERO CHANCE, IF THE ELECTION OF 2020 WAS NOT RIGGED AND STOLLEN. IT SHOWS THE WORLD HOW IMPORTANT ELECTIONS ARE. IRAN WAS BROKE AND TALKING, NOW THEY ARE RICH AND WATCHING, WAITING TO MAKE THEIR MOVE, AND IT WILL BE A BIG ONE! HOW COULD CROOKED JOE BIDEN, THE WORST AND MOST INCOMPETENT PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN? WE WENT FROM THE ABRAHAM ACCORDS AND PEACE, TO UNPRECEDENTED DEATH AND DESTRUCTION. NEVERTHELESS, THIS BIG AND VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM IS SOLVABLE. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”

Trump has also suggested that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is to blame for the attack, telling Fox host Brian Kilmeade, “(Netanyahu) has been hurt very badly because of what’s happened here. He was not prepared. He was not prepared, and Israel was not prepared.”

He doubled down on those comments while speaking to supporters in Florida and even praised the terror group Hezbollah:

“They’re vicious, and they’re smart. And, boy, are they vicious, because nobody’s ever seen the kind of sight that we’ve seen.”

Keep in mind that Trump has also lavished praise on Russian President/war criminal Vladimir Putin and North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, who he bragged he had fallen in love with after they met each other.

Donald Trump is a threat to U.S. national security and the safety and security of our allies. He doesn’t belong back in the White House. He belongs in prison.

Nikki Haley Gets Her A*s Handed To Her For Claiming ‘The Left’ Supports Hamas Beheadings

Former UN Ambassador and 2024 GOP presidential contender Nikki Haley has set off a wave of online anger after claiming on social media that “the Left” in the United States condones the beheadings of civilians by Hamas terrorists in Israel.

In posts she made on both Facebook and Twitter, Haley wrote:

“I don’t know how the Left justifies the beheadings. I don’t know how the Left justifies 1,200 people dead. I don’t know how the Left justifies the torture. That’s between them and God. I don’t understand it and I don’t want to understand it.”

During an interview on Fox, Haley substituted the words “progressives” and “the far left” for “the left.”

Who on the political left has justified beheadings? Can we please have specific examples, Nikki? Probably not, because she doesn’t have any.

Social media users fired back at Haley.

Trump Absurdly Claims Hamas Terrorists Are ‘Pouring’ Into The US And Blames Obama

According to disgraced and failed former president Donald Trump, Hamas terrorists are streaming into the United States across the U.S.-Mexico border, and former president Barack Obama is to blame.

Here’s a post Trump made today on his financially-troubled Truth Social site:

“The same people that raided Israel are pouring into our once beautiful USA, through our TOTALLY OPEN SOUTHERN BORDER, at Record Numbers. Are they planning an attack within our Country? Crooked Joe Biden and his BOSS, Barack Hussein Obama, did this to us!”

The people “pouring” across the border are from Mexico and Central America, and they’re seeking economic opportunity. They’re not trying to carry out terrorist attacks on the United States.

What Trump is really trying to do is distract from a very damning fact that directly implicates him and his administration in possibly funding Iran and Hamas by allowing the sale of $6 billion of Iranian oil.

The New York Times notes:

As part of the deal in question, the U.S. facilitated the transfer of $6 billion of Iranian profits from oil sales from banks in South Korea to Qatar so that Iran could use it for food and other humanitarian purposes.

But that $6 billion is not U.S. taxpayer money, as Mr. Trump and others, including Vivek Ramaswamy, another of the Republican presidential candidates, falsely stated. Nor is there evidence that the money, which officials have said is subject to Treasury Department oversight, was used to finance the attacks.

What Hamas has done to Israel is disgusting and an act of horrific barbarism. They deserve to be punished for killing innocent civilians. And if Iran played a role in the attacks, they too should have to pay a price that will be determined by Israel and her allies.

Fear is all Trump has left. He’s terrified that his numerous indictments will send him to prison for the rest of his life and his only hope is to win in 2024 and try to weasel his way out of his crimes.

Franklin Graham: Israel To Blame For Attacks Because Citizens Aren’t ‘Forced To Carry’ Assault Rifles

As battles between Hamas terrorists and Israeli forces continue to rage in the streets of the Gaza Strip, noted fake Christian Franklin Graham is suggesting that Israel itself is partially to blame because it doesn’t require that all Israeli citizens carry assault rifles 24/7.

Appearing on a Newsmax show hosted by Greta Van Susteren, Graham was asked for his thoughts on the terrorist attacks that have left over 1,000 Israelis dead and many others missing or presumed taken hostage by militants.

“First, the Bible instructs us in Psalms 122 to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. And I certainly am praying for the people, the Israelis,” Graham began. “I’m not praying for their enemies. I pray that God will give them victory over their enemies.”

Graham then compared gun laws in the United States with the laws in Israel.

“And so in this country, we have a right to protect ourselves [under the Second Amendment]. So you have a right to have a gun and protect yourself. In Israel, it’s difficult to get a gun permit.”

Then came his suggestion that it be mandatory for Israelis to lock and load at all times.

“But as far as having an assault rifle in your home or a shotgun or a hunting rifle, these things are very difficult. And you would think that Israel would require anyone living close to the border of Gaza to have weapons in their home and maybe even be forced to carry those weapons. And I just, for the life of me, I can’t understand what happened.”

After noting that he wanted to “put blame on the Biden administration and the Democratic Party” for withdrawing U.S. troops from Afghanistan, which is nearly 2,000 miles from Israel, Graham concluded his demented ranting by saying only God can solve the problem.

“Only God can fix this and straighten it out. Our politicians are off-the-charts crazy, and I don’t understand it. But what you’re seeing in Israel could happen here one day, I’m afraid.”

WATCH Nikki Haley Get Swatted Down When She Blames Biden For Attack On Israel

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley got a heavy dose of fact-checking Sunday when she began spouting lies during an appearance on “Meet the Press.”

Host Kristen Welker asked Haley if she thought it was irresponsible of Republicans to blame President Joe Biden for attacks on Israel by Hamas terrorists that have left at least 600 Israelis dead.

“Do you think it was irresponsible of your rivals to level that allegation without any evidence or proof?”

Instead, Haley decided she’d attack Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, suggesting that the $6 billion which is scheduled to be returned to Iran played a role in the attacks.

“They go and spread terrorism every time they get a dollar; it doesn’t go to the Iranian people; it does go to terrorist attacks, and Secretary Blinken is just wrong to imply that this money is not being moved around as we speak and yet, and that’s it.”

Welker pushed back:

“And yet, ambassador, there’s just no proof of that. Yet this is just the hours after that immediate attack. Is it irresponsible to level that charge when you really don’t have any evidence of that at this point in time?”

Rather than directly respond, Haley tried to change the parameters of the discussion.

“The evidence is look at what the Iranian people have done to freedom-loving people around the world look at what the Iranian people the Iranian regime has done to threaten Israel over the years.”

Once more, Welker corrected the former UN ambassador for the Trump administration.

“Ambassador Haley, just to be clear again, the secretary of state said categorically they have not seen a link.”

As is so often the case, a member of the GOP (especially one running for president) is only too happy to disseminate lies and conspiracy theories because they have no actual answers or policies of their own. And yet they wonder why the majority of Americans don’t believe a word they say.
