I don't think Biden will squander it......I think he will intentionally throw it under the bus......
Biden will bend over like all Democrats do. Especially if there is a buck for his family to make out of it.
Not only has Trump brought more peace to the Middle East, more comprehensively and faster than all of his predecessors combined, but he made it look easy. Israel's ties with its Abraham Accords partners are expanding massively by the day. Tourists from the UAE are streaming into the country. And with one in seven Israeli Jews descended from the Moroccan diaspora, the potential for business and cultural ties between Israel and Morocco is almost limitless.
Trump's sundry Middle East peace deals are humiliating for his predecessors. Not only did they fail where Trump has succeeded, but they insisted that his achievements were impossible.

Will Biden build on Trump’s legacy in the Middle East or squander it? Wish I could say I was hopeful—I see no reason to be.
And there’s an argument to made that Trump is the best foreign policy president since Reagan—especially, given what was handed to him by his *failed predecessors*.
But because it’s Trump, it will largely go unheralded except by the ‘non-approved’ pundit class but maybe historians will treat him more fairly. No Peace Prize even though his four years were historic in bringing peace to one of the most troubled places on the planet.
Not too shabby for a supposed no-nothing outsider. Maybe we need more of them.
Russia has given up on the West and has joined the Empire, which will not change for the forseeable future.
They know their place.
Very likely true.
Will you be defining them??
"Anytime you’re dealing with an inefficient behemoth like our federal government you can expect a large moment of inertia before things get rolling. It’s the nature of the beast. I won’t say it’s unfair to criticize Trump for it since he’s chief executive but it’s naive to think it would be any different with anyone else on top".
The government had plenty of time to organize, the private sector doing the distribution have it right, they just have no direction from the top.
Pfizer stated they have plenty of the vaccine in stock, ready to ship, they just need to know where and when to ship it.
They can't get an answer from the government, then, the Trump regime makes a statement it's Pfizers fault?
Has nothing to with regulations, it does have everything to do with bureaucracy, Trump's bureaucracy.
Really?Ridiculous, Trump inherited the bureaucracy just like any other president. If you want a large government then you have to accept that it’s going to be largely inefficient no matter who sits at the top.
It’s the nature of the beast. Just getting the FDA to move was like pulling teeth. No other country took as long to approve the vaccine.

Didn't Dotard "drain the swam"?
Dotard is the one who hired HHS Alex Azar two years ago.
Azar was a an HHS deputy secretary for Bush, supervising operations.
Azar was also a president of Eli Lilly for 5 years.
This is the guy who blamed Pfizer for the delay and shortage.
"Millions of doses of the COVID-19 vaccine are languishing in warehouses awaiting shipment instructions from the Trump administration"
"Officials in several states said they were told Wednesday that their second shipments of Pfizer-BioNTech’s vaccine next week has been mysteriously reduced".
Germany is “optimistic” that the European Medicines Agency will be able to make a decision by Dec. 23, Health Minister Jens Spahn said in Berlin on Tuesday. The EMA had previously said an advisory board would convene by Dec. 29 to make a recommendation on the application; approval would come within days after that.
The Swamp out lasted Trump and you’re delusional if you think it could be drained in one term.
It’s all ok now though. The Biden regime will soon be installed and our government bureaucracies will be running like a well oiled machine.
The Palestinians were the people displaced, so THAT was the 'Middle East Problem', not trade with the Gulf States.
No one is against Israel being 'recognized' by other States.
Afghanistan may or may not become a 'failed State', a 'Terrorist Haven', if we leave haphazardly. There doesn't seem to be a consensus on this.
Syrian Kurds. After the Kurds did all the heavy lifting of getting rid of ISIS in Syria, Trump stabs them in the back. NOT something to be proud of.
"The Kurds Have Paid Dearly for Trump’s Recklessness"
https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/a...ly-for-trump-s-reckless-withdrawal-from-syria
"On Trump’s orders, the small group of U.S. Special Forces that had served as a buffer between the U.S.-aligned Kurdish militia and the Turkish army left their posts last year, clearing the way for a Turkish invasion. That impetuous decision forced Kurdish troops, which had done most of the fighting to destroy Islamic State’s caliphate, to align with Damascus in Syria’s civil war, and by extension Russia and Iran."
Really?

Biden hasnt got any troubles- except China- unless he goes looking for them by listening to Blinken
first off that was a post about foreign policy/warSo you think the economy is just peachy because the Dow is over 30K? You think Biden's election just magically erased social injustice? You don't think that the prior administration spent four years degrading the EPA and along with it the environment? Climate change is so last decade? Illegals are no longer cruising over the border?
No one can come close to Dotard's ankle grabbing for a buck.

Trump stands to gain from an Indonesian project that got a $500 million loan right before he flip-flopped on ZTE.
They were under sanctions for selling supplies to Iran and N. Korea.
On April 15, the Commerce Department hit ZTE again, saying that despite the earlier fine and settlement, ZTE had continued to violate US sanctions law and lie to the US government. The new order simply barred American companies from selling anything to ZTE.
On May 11, a state-owned Chinese construction company called the Metallurgical Corporation of China announced it would float a $500 million loan to Indonesian developers to facilitate the construction of a vast “integrated lifestyle resort” called MNC Lido City that includes Trump-branded hotels, residences, and a golf course.
On May 13, Trump tweeted: “President Xi of China, and I, are working together to give massive Chinese phone company, ZTE, a way to get back into business, fast. Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done!”
On May 14, Trump tweeted about ZTE again: “ZTE, the large Chinese phone company, buys a big percentage of individual parts from U.S. companies. This is also reflective of the larger trade deal we are negotiating with China and my personal relationship with President Xi.”
