Freed Hostage: Hamas Terrorists Wanted Kamala to Win - Are Terrified of Trump

A freed Israeli hostage revealed during an interview with CNN that his captors desperately wanted Kamala Harris to win the 2024 election, and were terrified of Trump to the point that they started treating hostages better after he won. 

Omer Shem Tov,  who was freed in February after spending 505 days in Hamas captivity, told CNN “They [Hamas] were very scared of him. They wanted Kamala to be elected.”

“But as soon as Donald Trump was elected, they understood that he wanted to bring us back home. So immediately, the way they treated me changed,” he continued. “When Trump became president, the way they treated us changed, for me personally.”

"Because they anticipated that a deal would come soon?" CNN's Bianna Golodryga inquired. 

“Yeah,” he responded.

“And that’s when they started giving you more food?” she continued.

“Exactly. More food, they started treating me better. Stopped cursing me. They stopped spitting on me.”
