    It would be a smart move by Democratics. People prefer centrist views over extreme left or right. In Germany, the centrist candidate won.

                  Biden let in a flood of illegal migrants. In contrast, Trump closed the border and is deporting all illegal migrants.

                  Source? As everything I saw showed him cracking down hard on immigrants just as hard as Trump.

                  A centrist view would be to make it tougher to seek asylum

                  That’s a violation of international law… That’s very far from centrist.

                  allow illegal migrants who meet specific criteria to stay in the US and apply to stay.

                  And Dems would have to move left to reach that.

        This should be the centrist position. Egypt will be given the West Bank enlarged by land equivalent to the Gaza Strip. In return, Israel will be given the Gaza Strip and land at least 3 times larger than the West Bank in the Sinai Peninsula. Some of the land will be adjacent to water so Israel can build desalination plants. The Sinai is inhospitable, and Egypt doesn’t have the technology to develop it but Israel does. With its new land, Egypt can give it to the Palestinians, make it a state within Egypt, or whatever it wants.
