    The President is a diplomat and our head of state, and he should be negotiating with other countries to maintain or create peace. He basically just said, “Israel, you’re being naughty,” and that’s about it. He could and should be doing a lot more to convince Israel to agree to a ceasefire and a path toward an end to hostilities. Meet with regional leaders to discuss options.

    But no, he wags his finger and that’s it.

    I voted for Biden last election for two reasons:

    • he wasn’t Trump
    • he promised to get out of Afghanistan

    He delivered. Now I expect a bit more, and his actions have been… disappointing. Trump is still worse, but I’m not in a swing state, so I’ll be voting third party this year.
