372 Reps and 93 Senators Praise Milldle East Deal
2020-10-23
[Washington Free Beacon] A majority of House and Senate Democrats supported a resolution praising a key diplomatic achievement of the Trump administration.
Bipartisan!
Over the past month, 93 Senators and 372 House members‐amounting to over 90 percent of the Senate and 85 percent of the House‐cosponsored legislation supporting the signing of the Abraham Accords, a series of peace agreements between the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Israel brokered by the Trump administration. Both the Senate and House resolutions affirm the desire for a peaceful solution to issues between Israel and Palestinians, and encourage other Gulf countries to consider fully normalizing relations with Jerusalem.
Article has links to the list of those approving the resolution. I checked: Pelosi and Schumer are absent. Either didn't vote, or voted "nay".
And yet both Senators Pelosi and Schumer parade themselves as big Israel supporters.

#2  ^ Massive cognitive dissonance. Must be driving these poor people to the brink now.

They can't wrap their heads around the fact that their guys are/were the warmongers and Trump the peacemaker. Or that BLM are the violent racists fomenting a race war. Or that Trump's opponent is the corrupt shill for a hostile foreign power.

How do their heads keep from explaining? Pity the poor bastards

#1  as of a few hours ago, Sudan is also coming on board the Abraham Accords

amusingly, a few weeks my brother got email from a retired professor in Israel, a leftist, who thinks this is all a ruse or a plot or a hoax and it is Trump who is going to ruin the world, etc. Then a week ago I spoke to a retired Rabbi in the US who basically came up with the same drivel.
