I’m sorry, what? Biden sent them arms, and made it clear he would keep sending them arms. Wagging your finger and saying “try to do better” while handing someone a shit ton of missiles isn’t what I’d call a “lack of support.”

He’s also the person who led the campaign against Claudine Gay and lobbed Mayor Adam’s to shut down anti-genocide protests. But apparently before all that he was a longtime donor to the Democratic Party

Grylls, a devout Christian and star of shows including Netflix’s You vs. Wild, later confirmed his role in a statement to The Daily Mail newspaper.

“Faith and spiritual moments in our lives are really personal, but it is a privilege to stand beside anyone when they express a humble need for forgiveness and strength from above,” he said. “Friendships when we go through tough times are worth so much.”

It’s the right wing way of trying to get sympathy for being a rapist or whatever. They don’t do the work that’s meant to go along with actually repenting, it’s all for the rubes, to show that they are “one of them” and hence, worthy of defending.

Also, I didn’t realize that Bear Grylls was a right wing asshole too… good to know.
