Tommy Vietor

What's happened like a year from now that is not just nicer tents across the Gaza Strip, that there's actually a process put in place to like begin to rebuild for people.

And it's also this is what's frustrating me a little bit is it keeps getting called a peace deal.

It's nothing close to a comprehensive peace deal that would lead to a Palestinian state.

That's not even being discussed.

It's it does nothing to stop settlement construction in Gaza.

Like, obviously, like those are big problems.

Those are big, more challenging tasks that wasn't, you know, that not everyone was seeking to solve through this ceasefire agreement.

But Trump is like, it's a new ton for the Middle East.

Yeah, that relationship is very odd.

I think there's a real question of Netanyahu's future and what happens with him.

I mean, well, on this Biden question, I think it's worth talking about.

I talked to a couple of people on Biden's team about this over the years.

The kind of outlines of this plan

I don't think it was special.

It wasn't some like perfect 20 point plan that was like the red jigsaw puzzle that picked the lock.

I think it was Trump using his leverage in a way that Joe Biden wouldn't.

That kind of changed things.

Now, the politics are different.

Like Trump let Steve Wyckoff and Jared Kushner talk directly to Hamas.

Imagine if a Democrat did that.
