‘They’re not wrong,’ Trump says, as supporters chant ‘Genocide Joe’ at rally

Supporters at former US president Donald Trump’s re-election rally last night were filmed shouting, “Genocide Joe” — a chant that has largely been used by far-left critics of US President Joe Biden over his support for Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.
It was unclear why the Trump supporters were using the phrase, though, animosity toward Israel has increasingly crept into circles on the far-right as well.
Regardless, Trump responded to the chants by saying, “They’re not wrong.”
It wasn’t clear what was meant by this, either. Trump has been critical of certain elements of Israel’s prosecution of the Gaza war but has also urged Jerusalem to “finish the job.”
