US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee deleted a tweet claiming Gazans “love Trump” after his visit to one of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’s distribution sites earlier today, the Telegraph reports.
Huckabee claims Palestinians fondly refer to “one of the few” remaining six-story buildings in Rafah as “Trump tower.”
“They love @realDonaldTrump & believe he is helping,” the Telegraph quotes Huckabee as having written.
