Biden is clearly uninterested in stopping Israel, but he knows this is killing his popularity. I expect a continual string of feigned “getting angrier” statements from Biden until Israel has done everything they want to, at which point Biden will try to claim credit for stopping it.

We’ll see if he is so two-faced as to incorporate this feigned opposition into his campaign rhetoric, a la “I’m totally definitely opposed to and trying to stop Netanyahu, and if you vote for me I totally definitely will keep trying to stop it!”

Have they tried not giving Israel weapons to murder children?

Sounds complicated. Let’s continue shipping weapons and see if the issue corrects itself

What makes him a top senator? Who’s out they’re ranking senators? Or is it a division between top and bottom senators?
