Like Trump, the Pro Palestine movement in this country are a bunch of radicals, driven by dark personality traits to co-opt well-meaning people in support of their iconoclastic desire to destroy liberal institutions in pursuit of radical change. And after they supported the removal of one group, one nation from the Levant, I hope Pro Palestinians recognize Trump is doing the same thing.
