During an interview on Newsmax TV, Grennell told Spicer & Co. that only an outsider like Trump could change the “calculus” in the Middle East that could lead to the signing of historic deals between Israel and its Muslim neighbors, most of which at one time or another have vowed to “push Israel into the sea.”

“Today a historical agreement would not happen if not for the fact Donald Trump is an outsider. If you play by the Washington, D.C., rules, you don’t get to this point because you listen to the Europeans on, say, the JCPOA Iran deal [aka Obama’s Iran nuclear deal].

“The Iran deal was really a bad deal for America.”

Grennell told host Sean Spicer that Trump’s decision to decertify the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action was misrepresented by the American media. (Try to control your shock and amazement.)

“The Europeans complained, but many Arab governments cheered, and our media really missed that. They weren’t able to get that nuance. They just immediately went with the criticism of the Europeans.”

The Abraham Accords between Israel, Bahrain, and United Arab Emirates, Grennell said, showed that Mideast countries can step out of the “typical Washington, D.C., foreign policy establishment crowd.”

“These are the types of things that happen when an outsider brings a perspective like President Trump into the situation and changes the calculus for how we do foreign policy.

“I think we gotta cheer Donald Trump’s style. I think we’ve gotta say his style is making Americans safer and certainly making peace deals while he’s bringing our troops home.”

One member of the “typical Washington, D.C., establishment crowd” who is not “cheering Donald Trump’s style” is Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Two Nobel Peace Prize nominations for the president aside, petty Pelosi, ever-cynical about all things Donald Trump — no doubt due to the early onset of stage IV Trump Derangement Syndrome — told CNN last week that Trump’s peace deals were nothing more than “distractions” from the impact of COVID-19.

“Good for him for having a distraction on a day when the numbers of people who are affected and the numbers of people who are dying from this virus only increases.”

Can you imagine waking up every morning, going to bed every night, that depraved and bitter? Me, neither.
