    Congress establishes foreign aid, not the president. And there won’t be much protesting about Gaza anymore because the purpose of the protests has already proved successful, to disenfranchise Democrats for a Trump win.

      And who constitute the Congress? Oh yeah it’s Republicans and Democrats which both voted for the 10 years deal with Israel. Even if the president can’t do anything in action, he can still condemn and criticize the Congress decision.
