We have been hearing that for decades now

1) Weve been told that about Iran for decades McCain even sang a song about bombing Iran back in the day . 2) We were also told Saddam had weapons of mass destruction and a mushroom cloud was imminent! After decades of war and trillions of dollars spenthowd that work out? 3) Which regime is currently actively carrying out a genocide?

I agree about Tommys response, hes way too desperate to think certain Republicans (like Tucker and Trump) will hold to, or even genuinely, hold these principles. It still irritates me that the media portrayed Donald the dove when his first administration did more to stoke whats currently happening in the Middle East than anyone.

The one point I disagree with you on is the Abraham Accords. Rather than being diplomatic efforts they were an arms sale. Between the Abraham Accords completely ignoring the Palestinians, the Trump Administration acknowledging Jerusalem as Israels capital effectively ending the two state solution, shredding the JCPOA (which was a diplomatic agreement that worked) the first Trump Administration did pretty much everything possible to fuel the fire currently in the Middle East.

Bingo.

Im not defending anyone lol. Im pointing out how Trump and Republicans so easily dodge any accountability for their actions and flip flops on policy.

Heres the thing. Biden was thrown out and Harris with him. Why? Because Trump sold himself as the no new wars candidate, and the public bought that. Hes not beholden to those neocon war hawks! Yet instead of being held accountable for his lies and awful policieseh both parties bad.
