Gallup estimates that 76 % of Americans are unhappy with the way things are in the country. Whatever party holds the White House in, which often spells problem for them, but the Democrats have an advantage: No one really knows who is in charge again!

Joe Biden is the leader ( at least in name ), but Tim Walz keeps handing him tampons because he has been completely masculated by his own party. Although Biden won the Democratic nomination for reelection, Grandpa Joe was imprisoned in the room after revealing his intellectual incompetence to a national market. ( Yet somehow, he kept his finger on The Button. )
Is Kamala Harris then in demand? Is it Nancy Pelosi and/or her henchmen? One of the government members? People? No a? The whole damned thing is unusual: they’ve whited out the White House.
When one’s in charge, nobody’s responsible.
That’s seriously problematic for the entire national government, but it’s particularly frustrating when it comes to foreign relations. Unexplained actions may guide, quite literally, to battle. The stakes do n’t get higher than that.
Now in POLITICO, there was an interesting study of the Middle East. The subtitle in an article by Nahal Toosi and Robbie Gramer (” Biden raises pressure on Israel as war undermines Harris” ) really says it all:
U. S. officials stress that the latest techniques are n’t linked to November’s election, but the vice president may profit.
Also, gosh! That’s a heckuva accident.
The article begins by noting that the Biden administration ( interestingly, they declined to call it the Biden-Harris administration ) is taking “fresh steps” to defuse tensions in the Middle East. Obviously, none of these “fresh ways” include pressuring the Arab terrorists, clamping down on Iran, or annihilating Islamist militants. But what did you expect? This is the Biden ( and possibly Harris ) administration.

This is how they roll.
President Joe Biden’s team issued a warning to Israel that it must continue humanitarian assistance to Gaza or experience a stoppage in weapons shipments, reaffirmed its commitment to Israel not to attack Iranian nuclear and fuel facilities, commemorated the anniversary of the boy’s death in the United States, and made the steps it is taking to combat Islamophobia in the country known. ]emphasis added]
POLITICO is No a traditional publishing. They accurately and consistently address the Democratic Party’s concerns and viewpoints. The blatantly opaque political opportunism was actually observed by POLITICO:
” But the measures may be advantageous to Vice President Harris in the race for president against Donald Trump if it turns out Biden is being harsher with Israel.” That is especially true in swing states like Michigan, where a significant number of Americans are Muslim and Arab.
Just going by the math, POLITICO is n’t wrong: About 1 % of Michigan’s population is Jewish, but three times as many ( 3 % ) have Middle Eastern or North African ancestry. And in a razor-close vote, those thin margins will make or break a president’s hope.
But if they gotta attack Israel in the rear, they’ll accomplish it. Hey, compromises gotta be made, correct?

Strictly from a Cunning perspective, the Democrats have no choice but to intensify their anti-Israel language. Not picking the ( Jewish ) governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, as V. P. will likely cost Democrats the state. And if they ca n’t win Pennsylvania, they absolutely, positively must win Michigan. They’ll take all the starts.
The Israeli citizens lately observed Yom Kippur, a holiday customary with a 24-hour fast. In the past, the High Priest may offer a sheep as a sacrifice on Yom Kipper to make amends for the people’s transgressions.
Unfortunately, it appears that the Democrat Party will choose a unique sacrifice for November.
