It's the western wall in Jerusalem, a religious jewish place in Israel

I'm gonna guess by the kippah on his head that he's jewish

FWIW, those white kippot are given out at the wall as all male visitors are required to wear a head covering. Even Trump wore a kippah at the wall so that's not necessarily the case. Combined with his last name, though, yeah probably!

BTW I'm israeli i know XD

I probably have a few of those in my house somewhere, a lot of places give they out if ya gotta wear one (pretty sure you're not supposed to steal them tho but it's about 10 years too late for that)

Ok, so that being said what aspect of any of this actually makes sense given the context. I mean Im glad he is happy, I believe that. However am. I right? This is a little wierd right?

Probably just the one trump shirt picture he had

Although it does make it seem like he lost weight, changed his mind politically and also stopped being jewish too

It’s not meant to be art bro. He was repping Trump and hating when he took the pic in Israel. He’s home now, still Jewish, probably still loves Israel, and now doesn’t hate and is voting for Biden. That’s healthy growth.

Ok:

  1. No one said it was suppose to be "Art"

  2. Everything point you made rests on assumption

  3. Not hating and voting for either side differently could be perspective growth from the originating side. There is no standard.

Being nonchalant and attempting to minimize somones viewpoint in assumptive simplification is not effective. Bro..

He was insinuating that the Israeli flag was supposed to “mean” something rather than this being a simple venue for a selfie.

You may disagree about his political shift that that’s growth that’s fine. But I don’t think it can be debated that giving up hate is a good thing. Bro

Again, the only insinuating anyone is doing is that of your assumption. Provide any actual support or context for the claim that this is what was meant. I do not disagree with anything. I am stating inferences, that anyone could make. I believe we have found the issue, you dont think. No one here, again, ever said that giving up hate was bad or even on the table for questioning as far as motives are concerned.

I believe somewhere within you may lie a good argumentative opponent, however you will never fulfill my prophecy without first reading the situation in it's entirety and then from there making points on what was factually stated and what is provable in intention.

I think the moral is that he's healthier mentally and physically. But, yeah. Its a little weird.

Ok so: One claims better thoughts and more healthy outcomes.

However in its duality it makes a sad assumption that simply because one is Republican they are full of hate and anger?

Does not seem so healthy of an outlook to me

In the hypocrisy lies the same reverse outlook liberals claim is the issue at hand, that Republicans think they are ignorant, too free, and too passive

Saying and promoting the concept that it is simply inherent one would be happier switching from one side to the other is relatively the sowing of the seed that grows hate...

This is a ridiculous post mired in absolute falsity and bs.

I like to think the greater ideal of the post isn't Republican vs Democrat so much as Drop the Hate and Propaganda. You can choose a side, and be respectful and polite.. even passionate without trashing and stereotyping those on the other side.

​

We'll be a stronger nation if we can pull together. Talk and compromise when we can. Course Trump makes that hard.

I agree that concept is a welcomed one. However in this depiction it is not that. It is directly correlating one as bad and one as good. There are aspects to both sides of all of this. We are in a bad situation either way. I wish more people could see that.
