    It’s every Americans favorite game!

    Is the president really this stupid? Or does he just think Americans are dumb enough to believe it?

    Also, here’s the full quote:

    You mentioned the hunger in Gaza. Some have alleged that Israel is intentionally using starvation of civilians as a method of warfare. Do you think that’s the case?

    Biden: No, I don’t think that. I think they’ve engaged in activity that is inappropriate. That is…When I went over immediately after the—Hamas’ brutal attack, I said then, and it became public, I said, don’t make the same mistake we did going after bin Laden. Don’t try—The idea of occupying Afghanistan, the idea that you had nuclear arsenals in Iran that were being, I mean, in Iraq, that were being generated, simply not true. And it led to endless wars. They were not true. Don’t make the mistakes we made. And they’re making that mistake, I think. Excuse my voice, I apologize.

      They’re not making a mistake. They have no intention of occupying Gaza.

      When they’re done, there will be no Gaza.
