Maureen Callahan criticizes mainstream media and political opponents for refusing to acknowledge former President Trump's role in brokering a major Middle East peace deal that resulted in the release of 20 hostages. She argues that left-leaning outlets and figures, including Time magazine and prominent politicians, have downplayed or ignored Trump's achievement, instead crediting others or focusing on negative aspects. Callahan highlights what she sees as hypocrisy and institutional bias, noting the lack of public celebration for the hostages' release and the muted response from Hollywood and political leaders. She concludes that this refusal to give Trump credit reflects deeper issues within the media and the political left, suggesting it could have significant consequences for future elections.
