As we told you yesterday, President Trump hosted an event at the White House during which a historic Middle East peace deal was signed. CNN used the event as an opportunity for some social distance shaming.
Writing in The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg, whose anonymously sourced “scoop” caused a Democrat feeding frenzy until the story fell apart and was then eclipsed by Bob Woodward’s recorded interview with Trump, had an approach to the peace deal that was not unexpected. But just in case, this deserves to be prefaced with a beverage warning:

Jeff Goldberg turned one of the more interesting political magazines into Salon. You don’t have to keep pretending it’s good to sound interesting to your friends and colleagues.

According to the lefty media and former members of the Obama administration the only path to Middle East peace might have involved shipping another pallet of cash to Tehran.
Hold on.
Did he just… imply… that Iran isn't authoritarian? https://t.co/ioftKhhwlm

Funny to watch the meltdown as the DC types find out that appeasing terrorists/nuclear powers was not the key to peace the entire time

Um, aren't the Iranians authoritarians? And the Palestinians aren't exactly peaceful democratic actors either, pal. https://t.co/KuQtPKJFGl

Totally no brutal crackdowns in Iran and Palestine isn’t being run by a terrorist organization at all. ?♂️?
