“No administration has helped Israel more than I have,” Biden said. “None. None, none. And I think Bibi should remember that. And whether he’s trying to influence the election, I don’t know but I’m not counting on that.”

    Joe is getting the Jimmy Carter treatment from Trump with Iran, just like Regan gave it to Jimmy with the Iran hostage crisis.

      Don’t forget when the Nixon campaign sabotaged the Vietnam peace talks.

    “No administration has helped Israel more to turn itself into a pariah state” I think is what he meant to say.

    He’d better hope Donald Trump doesn’t win the next election or else Joe Biden will go down in history as the president who loved genociding brown people so much he sacrificed US democracy for it.

      That cake is baked. The question to me right now is can we get Harris into office before a flaming hot war becomes a reality. Biden is obviously not in command right now, so who is?

          I’m not suggesting some conspiracy or shadowy cabal, but rather that our foreign policy is coming largely from Biden’s aides and Blinken, and not Biden himself. I didnt mean for the statement to come of as conspiratorial.

            I mean… that’s kind of how it works? The president isn’t some kind of demi-god that holds all knowledge and power in their hands while in office… they have lots of staffers and consultants that provide info and policy suggestions.

              Sure. For things like which bridge to build or school lunches.

              Things like the US policy on Israel/ Gaza, or US policy on Ukraine/ Russia: issues like this are always elevated to the top.

              And so to me its a “Buck stops where?” question. Like, at a certain point, the buck stops with some one and I’m suggesting it isn’t Biden right now. The guy is clearly not in faculatative command and doesnt (I think) seem aware of the basics of the situation, as the article demonstrates.

    God this is sad. I’m trying to come up with a parallel to this. With a good metaphor. Like the closest I can think of is if you have a friend whose significant other is cheating on them blatantly and disrespectfully and obviously. To the point that the whole world knows. To the point that they rub it in your friend’s face constantly. To the point that you stop feeling sorry for your friend and actually start to resent them for being so willfully ignorant. That’s the closest thing I could think of to what I’m seeing from Joe Biden today.

    What little Legacy he has is just been completely tarnished.
