Former President Donald Trump is receiving rare praise from Democrats after brokering a peace deal between Israel and Hamas, ending two years of deadly conflict. The agreement, backed by Qatar and regional partners, secured the release of all 20 remaining Israeli hostages and over 1,900 Palestinian prisoners.
Former President Bill Clinton said Trump and his team “deserve great credit,” calling the ceasefire a “fragile but vital step toward peace.” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer also hailed the hostages’ release as “a wonderful day.” While Barack Obama and Hakeem Jeffries praised the humanitarian progress without naming Trump, the bipartisan approval marked a rare moment of unity. Trump called the deal a “turning point” and vowed to keep supporting peace.
