So how did Trump succeed in getting a deal where Biden failed?

If you look at the peace deal, it is not so different from the one that Joe Biden put on the table a year ago. So how did he get it over the line? Yes, using his personality. But there was another cru...

Biden had a peace deal in place but Netanyahu and Trump met at Mar a Lago and decided that keeping the war going would benefit them both (they both need to stay in office to stay out of prison).

A year later they're signing the same deal Biden brokered.

The unspoken truth remains that both of these men need to stay in power in order to stay out of prison. Both face charges once they become citizens.

Why would anyone believe a word either one of them said?

Trump Thinks Netanyahu Should Get Away With Corruption—just Like Him

Speaking before Israel’s Knesset, Trump said that the Israeli prime minister should be pardoned for corruption charges.

Your answer was factual and appropriate.

I have an account there used only to read newsworthy postings (I do not engage) and blocking the porn spam trying to 'follow' me is a daily chore.

Ashli Babbitt is dead because he refused to do his duty and call in the National Guard BEFORE shit got out of control.

I mean, there was plenty of warning (and I wonder how many now work for ICE).

Here in the states, Senator Mitch McConnell was tagged #MoscowMitch during the 2016 presidential elections due to his efforts in blocking the US government from looking into evidence of Russian interference. He later helped craft legislation designed to erect roadblocks and restrict future efforts.

"In a statement sent to the Herald, ICE said Philadelphia officers took Vedam into custody immediately after his release because his criminal past."

What really sickens me is the fact that Trump has already pardoned hard core drug dealers (because they threw him money).

"ICE cited a “legacy deportation order” dating back to the 1980s; before his arrest for murder, Subramanyam had pleaded guilty at age 19 to intent to distribute LSD."

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam now faces deportation.

Don't forget who egged them on for 8 years; Kentucky's Mitch McConnell.

With a lot of help from the press back home in KY who not once bothered to report on his blatant racism or the repercussions. They helped build this machine as much as he did.
