Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Yep, they know Trump will follow the money. And they definitely have money.
Trump doesn't care about the country's money, he cares about Trump. He will help them because any friend of Trump is someone worth helping, and Netanyahu is his friend.
Have you been under a rock? Trump literally only cares about money and power. He doesn't have any friends. He only has acquaintances and co-conspirators. Old clips of him with Epstein and Giuliani are the only time I've seen him display what I would call happiness or fun.
Friends are a form of power. They may not be what you or I would call "real friends", but does that matter?
Sounds like the word you're looking for is "allies"
Sure, that works.
He cares about development of Gaza beachfront property
What an insult it will be when that development goes bankrupt too...
Haha. Or gets bombed the next time politics align slightly out of his favor.
Quid pro quo. We've seen this before, it will happen again.
Do they? Most of their military supplies come straight from us in the form of donations. I don't believe they've ever really spent that much money that we didn't hand them to give back to the MIC, like a parent giving their kid a dollar to buy an ice cream cone.
This is the kid gives the parent a quarter in exchange for a dollar to buy a 75 cent ice cream.
The kid technically "pays" everytime they get an ice cream, but it's a perpetual system where the kid never runs out of ice cream and gets to eat all they want for zero cost
