Why are you unable to acknowledge the UNRWA/Hamas funding?

It seems very simple. A sane person would simply say "yes, funding UNRWA/Hamas was a horrible policy. Biden fucked up. It's unforgivable." Biden himself immediately cut funding after 10/7/23, so there was acknowledgment on that level. If I got a policy so obviously backward, I would be able to admit it. Is it because the mistake had such horrible consequences? I get it. But you still need to be able to admit it.

Gaslighighting is not going to help you. That's what led to the landslide victory. Every policy--not just the UNRWA funding but the border policy, the spending policy that led to inflation. The foreign policy that rolled out the red carpet for Putin. All of it was Biden's fault. Yet instead of a sober, "yes these were the policy blunders and this is how we will fix it" we just got 24/7 nonstop goddamn gaslighting.

f you wanted to run someone superior to Trump, you had ample opportunity and failed. I don't know why it's so hard for you to simply say, "Trump had it right to cut UNRWA funding. That policy was working. We shouldn't have reversed it." Why didn't you do that? It's not a rhetorical question. Step one is to stop gaslighting.

I am for total stop to all the financial help to the so-called "palestinian refugees". But you are intentionally ignoring the elephant in the room.

The soviets have killed thousands of Israelis. They actively participated in all wars starting with 1967. They not just flooded the arab countries with their weapons, their crews manned the SAM missiles that killed some Israeli pilots and the soviet pilots actually flew their planes there.

Between the direct and indirect involvement they are responsible for thousands of Israeli deaths, and yet you are not seeing anything wrong with that bloody regime.

  You say you wanted UNRWA funding to stop, so you support Trump's policy and stand against Biden's policy. Glad to know you are a Trump supporter after all.

    ...that does not equate me to every geriatric moron on Earth.
    
    Problem with Trump is not that he is always wrong (like the proverbial broken clock) but the huge harm he is likely going to do to our system of law, checks and balances, peaceful power transfer, freedom of speech, human rights and the Constitution.
    
    Speaking as a very conservative Never Trumper... you guys created many of us, and our ranks are growing. We don't yet have real political power, but the current dark era of mild fascism is not going to last.
