I wonder if Trump's NATO statements last week are going to paradoxically strengthen Biden's public commitment to Israel despite the backchannel stories about his growing frustrations with Netanyahu.
The left can't be wringing its hands about threats of abandoning our (bound by treaty) allies while simultaneously considering withdrawing support of our (bound by treaty) ally. Those are incompatible concerns. The more the US has to reassure the world that we will honor our commitments to our allies, the less likely it is that Biden will start using strong language to criticize Israel on the record.
Biden's death at this juncture would only catalyze a chain of events that accelerates instability across the globe. For those who have claimed here that this couldn't possibly have been handled any worse, I think your imaginations are failing you.
