[quote=jsteele]That poster appears to be a legitimate liberal though somewhat cynical. The poster is pointing out a conflict that I have also seen addressed elsewhere that pits principle against politics. As a principle, all of us should hope that Trump has success in bringing peace to Gaza and the wider Middle East. That would be great for all involved. Politically, however, it would be terrible for Trump to have a hugely significant success. Politically, it helps liberals for Trump to fail. So the question becomes, is it worth achieving peace in the Middle East if it means Republican victories in 2026 and 2028? I would only point out that Jimmy Carter achieved peace between Israel and Egypt and it did not end up helping him much. So, my preference is for Trump to succeed in achieving peace, but to remain politically radioactive due to the failures that he has already suffered. [/quote]
