In an alarming turn of events, former Vice President Mike Pence has decided to play the blame game after the horrific Hamas attacks on Israel. Pence, in his infinite wisdom, has pointed fingers at the very policies he believes former President Donald Trump implemented during his time in office. According to Politico, Pence believes that appeasement and isolationism, two key pillars of Trump’s leadership, are to blame for these brutal attacks. Now, I don’t know about you, but I find it absolutely astonishing that someone could twist the truth so much just to score political points.
During an appearance in Iowa, Pence decided to air out his grievances, singling out Trump, along with other GOP primary rivals such as Vivek Ramaswamy and Ron DeSantis. He accused them of embracing isolationism and appeasement, principles that apparently go against the Republican Party’s supposed tradition of being the leader of the free world. Well, if Pence wants to talk about retreat on the world stage, he better take a good, hard look in the mirror and remember who was standing right next to Trump during those years.
Despite Pence’s attempt to throw shade at his former boss, Trump was having none of it. His campaign released a statement defending their stance on Israel and pointing fingers at the Biden administration for allegedly funding these attacks with American taxpayer dollars. Now, I’m not one to spread conspiracy theories, but if reports are saying that Biden had a hand in funding these attacks, then we better take a serious look at what’s going on in our government.

But Trump wasn’t the only one coming to Israel’s defense. The entire Republican field rallied behind the nation, voicing concerns over the Biden administration’s decision to unfreeze $6 billion in Iranian assets. Critics argue that this move only helps facilitate terrorism, and the weekend attacks by Hamas seem to prove their point. Governor Ron DeSantis even went as far as saying that Biden’s policies have gone easy on Iran and ultimately put Israel in harm’s way. It’s about time someone is willing to call out these disastrous decisions made by the current administration.
Now, let’s address Pence’s attempt to differentiate himself from the current Republican frontrunner. It’s no secret that Pence is lagging behind in the polls, but trying to capitalize on the bloodshed in Israel to gain some political traction is just desperate. It’s clear that he is grasping at straws and will say anything to paint himself as the better option. Well, sorry, but we need a leader who doesn’t play politics with people’s lives.
In conclusion, Pence’s attempt to blame Trump’s policies for the Hamas attacks is simply ludicrous. It’s time for conservatives to stand united in support of Israel and call out the disastrous decisions made by the Biden administration. We need strong leaders who prioritize the safety and security of our allies, not those who play political games for personal gain.
