Trump had nothing to do with the deal though? It's quatar and saudia arabia that negotiated it

Trump sent a real estate agent he met during golfing to Israel to force Netanyahu to accept the ceasefire deal.

That is no joke.

Just casually violating the Logan Act, nbd

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago

oh i thought trump himself was the real estate guy

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

trump is only a tv real estate guy; the guy he sent in, whitkoff, was the REAL real estate guy.

[–] ChadMcTruth@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

how deep does this go how can we know that the "real" real estate guy didnt send in a REALER real estate guy

The conspiracy theorists were right! There is a real deep real (e)state!

i suppose it depends on how real you want your real estate to be. lol

i chose to go into surreal estate and i've been happy there ever since.

Steve Witkoff: The real estate investor who sealed the Gaza ceasefire

On Saturday, Gaza ceasefire talks were down to the wire, and President-elect Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy wanted to hash out the deal once and for all with Benjamin Netanyahu, but the Israeli leader’s office said he could not be roused during Shabbat.

Steve Witkoff allegedly gave a “salty” reply, making it clear he didn’t care if it was the Sabbath, the Jewish day of rest.

In the words of one report from Haaretz, Witkoff said Trump expected Israel to agree to the ceasefire, and “things that Netanyahu had termed life-and-death issues…suddenly vanished”.

[–] ChadMcTruth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

thats exactly where i got the photo from so what are you trying to say

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The meme implies Trump slightly pushing back against Netanyahu ended the genocide. Which Biden refused to do for more than a year.

Contrary to this post, I got that meme somewhere else

[–] ChadMcTruth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

slightly pushing back

he is holding a gun

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

It is a meme exagerating what happened. Netanyahu did not say "glory to the Islamic resistance" either.

[–] ChadMcTruth@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

funny because i heard it had to do with a real estate guy and i saw a picture of trump with a gun in a desert so explain that

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

trump sent his people to twist isreal's arm into accepting the deal that the biden administration couldn't get them to accept back in the spring of last year.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 week ago

More that the Biden admin didn't even get to get them to accept

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 25 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Trump please, if you go hard left into communism, it would be the funniest thing ever.

Folks, the bourgeoisie. They're no good, more and more people are saying it a-little-trolling

[–] Battle_Masker@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

but trump doesn't take office til tomorrow, and the deal's today

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

trump sent in people to twist isreal's arm into signing biden's agreement like reagan sent in people to iran to get them to not release the hostages before he became president; republicans dgaf about the law.

[–] Battle_Masker@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

believe me I know, but they also live, breathe, and die by technicalities. And since the inauguration isn't until tomorrow, then their plan didn't work the way they want it to, cause there will be enough media recognizing it as technically a Biden win.

So get ready to see that weaponized in the strangest ways

[–] ChadMcTruth@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

i wonder if trump is aware of the environmental impact of this kind of behavior because if he keeps this up hes going to need new tires very soon
