I wrote earlier about Joe Biden’s cluelessness when it comes to what’s going on with Gaza, Hamas, and making deals with terrorists.
Biden keeps leaning on Israel, and that keeps emboldening Hamas. Hamas is now demanding even more to make a deal and even threatening the hostages. That’s what bending over and being weak like Biden gets you.

But I guess the Harris-Walz team didn’t want Biden to have a corner on stupid. They doubled down on the bad takes with what Tim Walz said to WCMU on Thursday. WCMU Public Radio covers Central and Northern Michigan. No wonder there’s a reluctance to let him talk. It was awful.
He was asked, “How would a Harris-Walz administration handle the conflict and would it break with the Biden administration in any way?”
He said the following, and he should have stopped with what he said before the first “but.”
TW: Well, I think first and foremost what we saw on October 7th was a horrific act of violence against the people of Israel. They have certainly, and the vice president said it, I’ve said it, have the right to defend themselves and the United States will always stand by that, but we can’t allow what’s happened in Gaza to happen. The Palestinian people have every right to life and liberty themselves. We need to continue, I think to put the leverage on to make sure we move towards a two state solution. I think we’re at a critical point right now. We need the Netanyahu government to start moving in that direction. But I think those folks who are speaking out loudly in Michigan are speaking out for all the right reasons. It’s a humanitarian crisis. It can’t stand the way it is. And we need to find a way that people can live together in this and we’ve said it and continue to say it, getting a ceasefire with the return of the hostages and then moving towards a sustainable two state solution is the only way forward.

Now keep in mind, he knows he’s talking to a Michigan audience, so he may be tailoring his response. But whatever his reason, what he said was bad.
Let’s review. What happened? Hamas, the government that the people in Gaza voted for, attacked Israel and killed more than 1,100 people, including killing and kidnapping Americans. Instead of condemning Hamas or saying how they should be dealt with, Walz doesn’t even mention them but appears to blame Israel for the situation. Not one word about American hostages. But he’s all in for the people in Gaza.
“But we can’t allow what’s happened in Gaza to happen,” he said. What would that be? Attacking the terrorists behind the attack? It’s a war. It’s the only war in which people seem to demand the people who are attacked tie their own hands in their response.
But not only does Walz want to tie Israel’s hands, he doesn’t say anything about responding on behalf of the U.S. against Hamas for killing Americans. Instead, he insists that “leverage” be applied to Israel to “start moving in the direction of a two-state solution.” Israel has already offered the Palestinians a two-state solution — and had it rejected. Walz seems to have no idea of how many times Israel has bent over for a deal, only to have Hamas attack them or refuse deals for their trouble. If he doesn’t know that, he’s not qualified for the position he’s seeking. Where is the “leverage” against the Hamas terrorists?

Then on top of all that he said the people “speaking out in Michigan” are “speaking out for all the right reasons.” Sounds like he thinks people who chant against America, riot in the streets, and whose actions help Hamas are “very fine people.” Could he be any more clueless and/or radical?
How could anyone vote for these characters?
People were revolted by Walz’s words.
