‘Say his name!’ Obama slammed for praising Gaza peace deal with a glaring omission

President Trump is receiving bipartisan praise for brokering a Gaza peace deal, but at least one prominent Democrat fell short with a glaring omission.

Barack Obama praised the deal that he called encouraging, but failed to mention the main man behind the mission.
