Americans criticize US state department, with one person saying she felt ‘betrayed’ and treated like ‘an afterthought’

US citizens living in the Middle East say they’re “angry” at the US state department, criticising the Trump administration for having no “backup plan” to help them leave the region in the hours and days after the start of the US-Israel war on Iran.

One person, whose family voted for Trump for his anti-war stance, said she felt “betrayed” and what she perceived as the treatment of US citizens as “an afterthought”.

    It’s like every person that supports Trump sees him actively not give a shit about anybody and they think “He’ll care about me when the time comes though.”
