The Trump administration is doing “way better” in negotiating with Hamas for peace than previously expected, admitted far-left media figures Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian on Wednesday.
Uygur and Kasparian, hosts of the popular progressive online show “The Young Turks,” began their discussion by expressing how unthinkable it was just months ago to believe that Trump could achieve more for Middle East peace in 100 days than former President Joe Biden could in four years. “I’ll give, uh, a lot of credit here to Donald Trump,” said Uygur. “And if you’re on the left and you’re like ‘oh, he brought home a hostage and cut out Israel but he’s Trump, boo, I don’t want to give him credit’ — what did you, what did you need? Like, so did you not want to bring home a hostage?”
“I’m a fair person and an honest person; Trump deserves a lot of credit for this deal,” Uygur added. Kasparian expressed her astonishment at Hamas reaching an agreement with Trump instead of Biden. “I can’t believe I’m saying this: Someone who Donald Trump tapped to serve as his special envoy to the Middle East — Donald Trump tapped him — is way better on this issue than who Biden had involved in, you know, peace negotiations and a cease-fire deal… It’s just incredible to see it.”
