A contract is a business venture, something bought, something sold, with particulars towards items sent, items received.

There is no political ground.

President Biden, in his direct intervention into a direct contract sale, has shown not “his party’s”, but his personal prejudice against the customer.

This isn’t about allies. It’s shameless pandering to a voting demographic that is anti-American, anti-Jewish, anti-Western, anti-profit, procommunist and all-around horrible people. The thing is, Biden can’t possibly do enough to make them happy. Because as long as anything Western exists, they’re pathologically against it. Funny thing is, if everything they wanted suddenly happened, they’d be left with a feeling of free-floating unhappiness that would eventually land on something they were previously in favor of. Because you can’t destroy the type of unhappy hate these people have.

Hopefully, the D party will find a way to cleanse the party of its communist/nazi operatives. it is not just embarrassing to allow such moral trash in governmental posts, it is dangerous
