Donald Trump’s decisive role in pushing forward the potential ceasefire is evidence that Joe Biden refused to use his full powers as president.

    Garbage ass article. He isn’t even in office he is a fucken civilian. What powers is he flexing that Joe isn’t? Fucking none. He is coming it late AF and claiming the spoils when he hasn’t done shit.

      Biden had more than a year to do anything. A few days before Trump comes in office Israel suddenly gets pressured into accepting a ceasefire because Trump sent a negotiator.

        Trump didnt do shit. What’s happening is Netty boi is losing his grip on his own country trying to keep these wars going. So to not piss off his own people even more and get the hostages killed, he is going to end the war there since they have another one anyway. He needs a war to stay in power, but he also needs the support of his people, as soon as the scales tip in either direction he is more eligible to face the Hague.

            You telling me the dictator was swayed by the wannabe dictator directly after the election with nearly no effort? Almost like when Iran released hostages right after a certain election with little to no effort? Very strange, sir. But I am sure it was all legitimate theater.

            Listen, you can bend over and pucker up all you want for Trump. I’m not having it. Biden was a removed about it, but the Israelis themselves had ministers sabotaging each ceasefire talk, even this one the God Emperor claims to have had a hand in. So you won’t see me spreading my cheeks to say Trump good. He’s not.

      He isn’t even in office he is a fucken civilian.

      He has been talking to world leaders the whole time he wasn’t president and especially in the last few months, do you not read the news or know how things work, dozens of world leaders have gone to Mar a Lago to meet with him while he is “a fucken civillian” these past few months.

      What powers is he flexing that Joe isn’t? Fucking none. He is coming it late AF and claiming the spoils when he hasn’t done shit.

      This is not even close, if you want to be charitable to Biden you can say Netanyahu was only willing to make a deal with Trump in office, if you reasonably don’t want to be charitable to Biden you can argue like the article does that Biden used almost no leverage to do anything.

    Any USA president can simply use the full powers to stop the genocide. Israel is basically a client state, and although it has protections against many actions to cut off aid; there is more than one way, has been many ways, to strong arm them.

    Reagan used it in the 1980s during one famous phone call that took 10 minutes, most of it waiting for other people to get to the phone, to stop the Israeli army.

    The fact Biden refused to do the same, but went on to pretend to always have a peace deal on the brink, may be copied by Trump. It’s a great way to stay in the news cycle. Or he may do a Reagan, or nuke Israel, and/or Gaza, or forget they exist. Or confuse them with Mexicans.

    It’s really hard to know what will happen

      They could try to use their leverage and threaten to cut off aid. Biden did not do that but he probably should have. There is no way that Traitorapist Trump would do such a thing since he is as bad as the terrible Israeli PM.

        Adding to all that, I’m not sure when or how his dementia makes him controllable by other people just as bad
