If you're worried about who gets the credit, you're worried about the wrong things and to a gobsmackingly awful degree.

@w7voa This deal contains nothing that couldn’t have been achieved a year ago. It’s truly unfortunate it took this long.

@w7voa he Trump would take credit anyway

@w7voa It kind of doesn't matter. Trump will take the credit regardless, whether it is due to his negotiators or not. Plus this may be a political theater at this stage at the expense of the Palestinian people Two sides were not even in the same room... So, you can only imagine how forced this deal really is...

@w7voa It's always the same spiel with trump and his ilk. Remember trump 0.1?

All the ills under his maladministration were claimed to be caused by the previous Obama admin and Democrats in general.

Any utter non-failures? Thanks to one overbaked stable genius...
