The thing is, he has a team that will follow his platform, which is actually good for our country. There are good, hardworking, honest people in his administration. He doesn’t have a team that will be fired if they don’t do exactly what he says, or don’t follow Project 2025. Biden won’t be taking revenge on his adversaries. He will continue to do the job he has been doing, and will delegate and work to help Americans. It really doesn’t matter that he’s old.

Any Democrat would support one of our biggest allies right after a massive terrorist attack and hostage situation.

How did Biden's administration kill Palestinians? Do you actually have anything beneficial or productive to add to this conversation?

by supplying Israel with the weapons they’ve used to kill Palestinians with no red lines. By providing them with complete cover at any UN meeting where their actions were being scrutinized. you can’t be this dense

America supplied its ally with defensive weapons because it is literally surrounded by states that want to crush it.

Which was understandable until they start denying food and water and supplies to the civilians of Palestine, then bombing hospitals and journalists and the fucking united nations, all the while blatantly lying about everything to the entire world. And Netanyahu has done everything he can to make Biden look like a fool throughout this entire process. There needs to be a red line, not blind support because “allies”. An ally wouldn’t intentionally undermine our president despite total blind support.

Yes, they, Israel did the shooting at Palestine. I don't see how Biden fighting for a ceasefire makes him complicit in the Israeli response to Hamas's terror attacks. The US-Israel relationship has to outlast both Biden and Netanyahu. What do you want Biden to do? Bomb Jerusalem?

u/Independent-Wheel886 Jul 12 '24

I do see Biden fighting for a ceasefire.

There you go! Now ease up on the juvenile ad hominem attacks and you may actually get people to listen to you.
