Speaking as a ✡️, we should not call the Israelis stealing Gaza land and homes, settlers. They are colonizers, and in many ways, terrorists. It would be nice if the media called them what they are, which we would do with any other group.

Cenk Uygur believes Trump is "the one guy that's hard to control, even if you give him hundreds of millions of dollars" because Trump never pays creditors and cons people (which is true but doesn't prove Cenk's point), and he thinks this proves Israel has blackmail on Trump.
