‘He Deserves All The Credit’: Ex-Dem Strategist Praises Trump For ‘Historic’ Israel-Hamas Peace Deal

Former Democratic strategist Dan Turrentine praised President Donald Trump on the Monday edition “The Morning Meeting” for brokering a peace deal between Israel and Hamas.

Trump traveled to the Middle East on Monday to celebrate and oversee the first phase of the deal, which included the release of all the hostages taken by Hamas on Oct. 7, 2023. Turrentine said on the 2WAY show that he was amazed by Trump’s evolution since entering politics roughly a decade ago, asserting the deal merited recognition and celebration.

“I was struck just thinking about the arc of Donald Trump’s 10 years — and just all the ups and downs and where he was just a few years ago, the unconventional nature of kind of how he operates, the personnel around him,” Turrentine said. “We hold him to account rightfully when they err — but this is an instance where it spectacularly worked. And it’s historic and he deserves all the credit and basking in everything today. You tip your hat to him.”

Hamas released all 20 surviving Israeli hostages and they returned to their families on Monday.

Other Democrats have also praised the Trump administration for achieving the peace agreement, including former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during a CBS News special presentation on Friday.
