Mohammed Dawoud, displaced eight times during the Gaza conflict, said a Trump victory meant that the end of the war would come soon.
Another displaced resident, Mamdouh, said he didn’t care who won – he just wanted someone to help.
“There’s no medicine, no hospitals, no food. There’s nothing left in Gaza,” he said. “We want someone strong who can separate us and the Jews.”
In the occupied West Bank, home of the Palestinian Authority (PA), there is widespread scepticism about American influence, with many viewing US administrations from both sides of the political aisle as siding with Israel.
“Mediocre solutions which come at the expense of the Palestinians, or endless military support for Israel, is going to be nothing but a catalyst for future confrontations,” said Sabri Saidam, a senior member of the PA’s main faction, Fatah.
“We would like to see a new version of Trump, more like a Trump 2.0 who’s serious about immediately ending the war, and addressing the root cause of conflict in the Middle East.”
Recent polls suggested that more than two-thirds of Israelis wanted to see Trump back in the White House. But here too, there are those who caution about his unpredictability and his approach.
