His quote doesn’t match the title of the thread.

So, he isn’t going to stand with Israel. His neo Nazis fringe supporters will like this.

He has no moral compass so this is not unexpected, just as his support of Planned Parenthood is a symptom of that disease

How are you going to “stand with Israel”, which in your definition is: “Condemn the Palestinians as devils” if you’re being asked to establish a peace treaty between two different sides? That’s not how you make a successful deal.

Deceptive headline. I listened to him speak.

He was referring to brokering a deal between Israel and Palestine.

He said it was maybe impossible because the Palestinians are taught from birth to hate Jews, but would be willing to give it a try.

An improvement. Obama is pro-Palestinian. In truth he actually can;t say much at this juncture. He has supported Israel in other places. He has to be careful not to fully tip his hand.

Trump has voiced support for Israel in the past.

“Let me be neutral” If he needs to be neutral to bring peace, let him. “Blessed are the peacemakers..”

At least he will try, and he is more qualified to try than any other candidate.

Try reading the article instead of just the headline.

The day we go neutral on ISRAEL and PALESTINE, America will lose big time. IF TRUMP puts them both in the same pot then it’s over this election.Sorry that is ONE issue that hits a nerve with Evangelical believers!!

That is not too likely as Ivanka and his grandchildren are Jewish. I have not heard him say he will keep Israeli out of US, but he would muzzie. Didn’t see Town Hall but context is important so until I can read full text, I doubt what you say.

That's not what the article says.

He spoke about not being sure a peace deal could be worked out among the two as the Palestinians are raised to hate Israel. Interesting to hear a deal maker tell the truth rather than platitudes about how he's soooo awesome he can force a deal.

"You know, I don’t want to get into it," he told hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski....

Oh, for pity's sake, Donny! Grow a set! It requires courage to take a principled stand. You don't have that kind of courage, nor do you appear to have deep convictions.

I wouldn't worry about it too much, Donny. Your followers don't care where you stand on 98% of the issues. Just keep repeating "wall" and "door" and they'll continue to follow their pied piper.

Well, that’s another huge black mark against Trump in my book.

I wonder if he’ll call his business partners in the middle east for advice?
