Reading comprehension. I never said Biden DID cancel arms shipment cancellations. I said he floated doing so. It was a shot fired across Israel’s bow to see how they’d respond. That’s how you start dealing with an ally that’s doing things you don’t agree with.
Question.
Do you remember Trump publicly expressing disapproval of Israel’s actions?
Do you remember Trump publicly floating arms shipment cancellations?
Do you remember Trump publicly attempting to broker a peace deal?
Cuz I viscerally remember Biden doing all those things.
Trump disapproved of the optics of Israel taking so long with the Gaza erasure. So… Half credit?
Not to my recollection, but that was never the ambition with his “peace through power” schtick.
He made LOTS of hay about sending Witkoff over to try this, to the point that several posters here were grousing about the Logan Act.
Ehh, Biden talked a lot of shit- some of the most egregious were his red lines on Rafah. Yes he was a step up from our current admin (almost fucking everyone is), but he left a lot to be desired- especially concerning everyone’s favorite Mideast Democracy.
