Unfortunately it boiled down to selecting the lesser of the two evils and the Abandon Harris clowns chose the neo-Nazi MAGAts which will send, for free, a nice assortment of 155 mm artillery shells to Israel.. From my point of view, zero sympathy for your FAFO.
I'll never understand how people could vote for Trump over Harris on the Israel thing.
Trump was crystal clear he would give Israel whatever they needed to get it done and quick. Democrats rolled over for Israel but at least made it known they weren't happy about it. Which is most certainly not enough but still.
I just hope the Democratic party takes the hint that their extremely middle-of-the-road approach to these and many other serious problems is killing them during elections. They should stop trying to please everyone (and especially the far-right) and commit to an actual opposing viewpoint.
The Democratic Party is not trying to please everyone. They're answering to their owner's commands and campaigning to voters in ways that don't offend their owner's demands.
Honestly I'm thinking a lot of this was another Russia-sponsored propaganda campaign. I've noticed that WhAt AbOuT IsRaEl is coming up a lot in response to articles or discussions about the shit they're pulling, as if one can't oppose the shitty actions of both.
No Trump lied he would bring peace. Harris said she would give Israel everything it needs. You are switching the sides around.
Trump's peace is by massive weapons exports to Israel so they could carpet Gaza faster and call for an end to the war. Can't have war in Gaza if there are no Palestinians left!
He promised some vaguer peace in Ukraine and we're all afraid of what that's going to translate into.
If you do not know you are in an echo chamber.

No, Trump told the truth; there will be the kind of peace you find at the site of hundreds of mass graves.
Yep. They're getting exactly what they voted for, whether they like it or not. They might not have liked Harris' limp wristed attempts at encouraging moderation and restraint, but Trump's plan was to "Finish the problem" and will not just enable, but actively encourage genocide.
