Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that President Joe Biden is “right in the middle of the country” regarding the Israel-Hamas war.
Anchor Dana Bash said, “Do you think what the president said this week to Erin Burnett, what ended up happening is what he tried to do? I think what he tried to do in terms of policy.” I don’t want to bring this up, but when it comes to politics, the bottom line is that it didn’t please anyone. Is that an underlying problem, or do I think his words and actions are helpful to his critics on the left? mosquito?”
“Frankly, I think when you’re a good leader, you often upset people on the right and the left,” Murphy said. He advertised himself as a Taoist, someone who didn’t pay attention to the extremes of the debate and just did what he thought was right for the country and what the country wanted. ”
He added, “I think that’s actually the wide middle of this country. I think the broad middle class of this country wants to support Israel’s ability to destroy Hamas, but there are so many children… He is very concerned about the fact that people are dying, and no humanitarian aid has been coming to Israel for a week. I think that there.”
