Add getting the Trump bucks during the initial COVID waves and I don't know what else to say than he's materially the best president weve had in my life.

I mean it really shows how useless and evil the Democrats are more than anything. It's fucking wild

(Obviously it's not over yet, not getting ahead of myself, but this is the most progress we've seen by a long shot)

edit: folks it should be obvious i dont think he is doing this as a good thing or that it's not going to be a double edged sword. i'm just saying look at biden and compare.

Color me skeptical that Trump is playing hardball with Netanyahu. For that to make sense you’d have to buy the line that Trump is a genuine anti-war dove.

I think it can make sense without him being a dove. Trump isn't anti-war, but he probably finds Netanyahu to be very annoying (it seems most people do) and doesn't like him. Netanyahu pissed him off at the end of his last term by congratulating Biden. If the new reports are to be believed then Trump seems to still have a personal dislike or at least disregard for Netanyahu. Trump doesn't want this war to be happening while he's in charge because it can be used to criticize him from both the Zionist side as well as the humanitarian side. It's a lose-lose from his perspective, and also the guy in charge of the war is a tedious annoying "traitor".
