It has been noted that at a rally in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, President Donald Trump apparently endorsed some of his supporters who were chanting “genocide Joe,” about President Joe Biden’s handling of the Middle East conflict.
“They’re not wrong,” Trump said, “He’s done everything wrong.”
Well, the “genocide Joe” moniker was coined by Pro-Palestinian supporters protesting against Israel’s attack on Gaza and the perceived unwavering support Joe Biden has shown toward the Israel Defense Forces siege of the enclave that has left over 33,000 dead, according to the Hamas-run health ministry.
However, at the rally, Trump also expressed his support for the Jewish state. “God bless the people of Israel. They are under attack right now,” he said.
“Crowd: Genocide Joe.
Trump: They’re not wrong.”

It has been noted that the GOP frontrunner went on to say that the overnight drone and missile attacks on Israel by Iran were the result of the Biden administration’s “weakness” on the world stage.
The attack would not have happened if he were still in office as he said. On Saturday night, in retaliation for a deadly attack on an Iranian consulate in Damascus earlier this month, Tehran launched a barrage of over 300 missile and drone strikes against Israel.
The US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin has said the US military had intercepted dozens of missiles and drones. The UK, France, and Jordan have also said they came to Israel’s aid.
