Summary

Palestinians in the West Bank are largely pessimistic about Donald Trump’s re-election, viewing it as unlikely to significantly worsen their already dire situation, though some fear it could embolden Israeli actions.

Trump’s support for Israel’s far-right policies, including the potential dismantling of the UN agency Unrwa and backing of Israeli settlements, could deepen economic hardship and escalate violence against Palestinians.

While some Palestinians worry about increased oppression, others see a Trump presidency as a chance to expose brutal realities, possibly sparking stronger resistance.

    Man we’re gonna have to open like dozens of new zoos for all the leopards absolutely feasting on people’s faces. When Trump warp speeds the deletion of Gaza, you get what you fucking deserve.

      Wait… you’re not suggesting that voting for the lesser of two evils would’ve somehow helped the Palestinians somehow (or at least lessened the negative impacts)? Everyone knows that you either get everything you want or you just let the worst possible result happen, there is no middle ground.
