    As the commander in chief he already has the power to stop arms transfers. Full stop.

    lol- you really don’t know how any of this works.

        lol again- because that’s not the part I was loling about before. You don’t understand how US support for Israel works if you think stopping arms transfers would have a meaningful effect on the Gaza conflict.

            I guess you missed where I said ‘material support’.

            Can you think of any ‘material’ other than arms that might matter to Israel?

              I don’t care.

              Biden wants my vote, those are the terms. If he thinks he can win without it or a loss to Trump isn’t a big deal then he can just keep doing what he’s doing.
