The only thing Trumps understands or cares about Putin is that he controls A LOT of money and can unilaterally turn the spigot on and point the hose wherever to make it rain.
The ENTIRE Trump presidency is about a cash bukkake from dictators and oligarchs and billionaires.

Drafting a "peace plan" with Putin and then telling the Ukrainians to accept it is not mediation. It's acting as an agent for the Kremlin. Trump's and Witkoff's efforts to appease Putin are deeply disappointing. I was fooled into thinking Trump had finally figured Putin out. Looks like I was wrong

"Let's just ignore the entire, like, middle 40% of the Bill of Rights and hope the judge doesn't notice" is a level of incompetence blended with malice that should be mind boggling. But it isn't. Because these people are morons.
HUGE development IN hearing for Comey selective prosecution motion, It turns out that the grand jury NEVER saw the operative indictment. Whole separate basis for dismissal. Standby for more.

Eh, Netanyahu's most pressing issue is the Knesset and without a crisis/conflict he's way too vulnerable.
And Trump and the Gulf sheikhs and emirs intentions are purely cynical and don't actually much involve the Palestinians and Hamas ain't going nowhere.
It's all frangible and Trump is weak.

For various reasons I think this one will be longer standing but this is also 100% true.
There were at least two ceasefires under Biden! In which more than five times as many living Israeli hostages were released in exchange for 240 Palestinians! Has everyone forgotten this?

This is the thing. I don't really care much about credentials or experience so much right now. All I really care about is whether somebody displays a moral compass and a sense of decency.
There is a gulf in America. I submit it is the gulf between good and evil, or at least not-evil and evil.
The gulf is not just between people who oppose this and people who are indifferent to it or reluctantly accept it in support of immigration policy or see it as collateral damage.
