He hasn’t even been sworn in yet and President-elect Donald J. Trump has already brought peace to the Middle East with the long-awaited ceasefire in Gaza, a sign that the U.S. has reassumed its traditional leadership role on the world stage.
On Wednesday, a week after he warned that if the hostages weren’t freed by the Hamas terrorists, “All hell will break out in the Middle East,” the elusive deal to end the carnage was announced with the bad guys clearly as terrified of Trump as the Iranian ayatollahs were of Ronald Reagan when they released Americans who were taken captive at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran minutes before he was inaugurated in 1981.
It was the type of peace through strength that strong American leaders have always stood for, not the feckless weakness of Joe Biden and his foreign policy surrender monkeys whose incompetent recklessness has only succeeded in turning the nation into a global joke while at the same time playing a dangerous game of chicken with Russia, a country with a huge nuclear arsenal.

“This EPIC ceasefire agreement could have only happened as a result of our Historic Victory in November, as it signaled to the entire World that my Administration would seek Peace and negotiate deals to ensure the safety of all Americans, and our Allies. I am thrilled American and Israeli hostages will be returning home to be reunited with their families and loved ones,” Trump said in a post to Truth Social after he confirmed the news of the deal.
While Trump’s influence was rightfully being praised, the spiteful old man tried to take credit for the breakthrough reached five days before he assumes his rightful place in the garbage dump of history.

Biden also cracked wise when asked by a reporter if Trump deserved credit for what he failed at, potentially costing himself a second term by alienating Muslim Democrats in Michigan, a contributing factor to Nancy Pelosi’s pulling the plug on the old geezer.
Joe Biden wants complete credit for successes unconnected to him and zero blame for the failures he caused:

Biden’s social media team was already working overtime to churn out posts polishing the turd of his catastrophic presidency and immediately began pumping out lies to revise the first draft of history before the ink was even dry on the pages.
The road to this deal has not been easy.
I have worked in foreign policy for decades – this has been one of the toughest negotiations I have ever experienced.
And we have reached this point because of the pressure that Israel built on Hamas backed by the United States. pic.twitter.com/oAiw4WNgth

The elements of the ceasefire and hostage deal is what I laid out in detail this past May – which was embraced by countries around the world.

But the reality is that Biden had 15 months to deliver the ceasefire that much of his own base was demanding and he failed to achieve it. The difference was obviously the change in management at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW.

Even the senile old fool’s own State Department is acknowledging it was the Trump effect.

Biden also nearly threw out a rotator cuff patting himself on the back during his official farewell address, but it was just more malarkey from a man who has built his five-decade political career on a pyramid of lies.
“I laid out the precise contours of this plan on May 31, 2024, after which it was endorsed unanimously by the UN Security Council. It is the result not only of the extreme pressure that Hamas has been under and the changed regional equation after a ceasefire in Lebanon and weakening of Iran — but also of dogged and painstaking American diplomacy. My diplomacy never ceased in their efforts to get this done,” Biden said in a statement.
Nice try Joe, but it’s Trump’s ceasefire.
