Former US president Donald Trump again uses the term “Palestinian” as a slur after branding his successor Joe Biden a “weak Palestinian” at last night’s debate.
At a campaign rally in Virginia, Trump says Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has also become a Palestinian.
“He’s Jewish but he’s become a Palestinian,” he says, apparently suggesting that the Democratic senator has become too critical of Israel
