As we always say, Vox’s Aaron Rupar calls himself a journalist but as best we can tell he’s more like the Krassenstein Bros. — whenever President Trump says or tweets anything, Rupar has to be there pointing out what an idiot the president is. As we reported Monday, he called Trump’s summation of forest management “totally beyond parody,” and despite all of the pleas not to turn Tuesday’s historic peace agreement into a partisan issue, Rupar thought Trump’s tweet needed a “reality check.”
After decades of division and conflict, we mark the dawn of a new Middle East. Congratulations to the people of Israel, the people of the United Arab Emirates, and the people of the Kingdom of Bahrain. God Bless You All! pic.twitter.com/gpeqFDtr0S

Reality check: Israel has never gone to war with UAE or Bahrain https://t.co/6LttdMsoFB

Um, he said decades of division and conflict, not war. Is this Rupar’s best effort at dunking on a truly historic moment?
“Actually the Middle East has always been fine” is a helluva take. https://t.co/HI22SxkuvE

Apparently, Aaron doesn't understand the geopolitical significance between Muslim nations normalizing relations with the only Jewish state on the globe. https://t.co/ihGG7cctCB

Wow, I guess that whole Cold War thing between the USSR and USA was pointless to stress over. https://t.co/yNSbnnWK1f
