But when he was saying that Israel bombing, let me be very clear.
Trump aided and abetted this in the first place.
And I think when you listen to Trump's words, he then kind of says, and they weren't able to finish the job quickly.
So to me, what Trump seemed more concerned about were the optics versus the genocide and that he would have been okay if Israel took care of it quickly
meaning done the genocide quicker as they have in Gaza, in Lebanon.
But I do, when Trump's out there not showing the MOU to Israel, I am like, good, why would you show them?
Why would you go into this catastrophic war with them in the first place?
And when he at least called out Beirut, I said,
You should have been saying that a very long time ago.
I guess why I'm sharing this is that the coverage is complex.
Because then Trump will do that.
And then he seems over there.
And this is where he's so discombobulated.
And by the way, that was a term that Trump used when posting these weird AI images, discombobulated.
Because I think his head is discombobulated.
It's just an interesting word to say.
But then he attacked Obama for standing up to Israel.
Or at least the criticism was that Obama sold Israel out.
And then Trump seems to, though, be doing an Obama template but attacking β so none of what he's saying kind of makes any sense at all.
And going back to where we started with this episode, at a very bare minimum, we need someone in the leadership position who just β who could kind of comprehend what's happening.
