    My brother in Christ. Israeli officials were literally waiting for Trump to get elected. They KNEW people like you were going to hand them the Gaza Strip. Acknowledge that you fucked up and move on with the rest of us.

      Blinken tried to organize for other countries to allow Israel to ethnically cleanse Gaza and those countries to take in the Palestinians in Nov 2023. Then the other countries said “No”. The Trump plans of this year arent fundamentally different. They are the same plans as the Democrats under Biden had. Just that Trump is louder about it.

        Other countries were waiting for the new administration, since that would signal what our stance was going to be for the next 4 years. It’s true that Trump doesn’t care about Gaza, but he certainly would like to raze it and build some hotels. At the same time, people stateside might like to protest, but more and more are afraid of being whisked away by plainclothes nobodies to El Salvador. It is possible to say that Harris would not have done a better job stopping the genocide and also that she was still the correct answer.

      I will remind any Democratic supporters of Israel that Israel is in league with Trump. I will not allow them to forget it.

      I am most decidedly anti-Israel but voted for Harris due to the dozens of other issues that were different between the 2 candidates.

        You and I and millions, I’m sure. But not enough. Even now, as the things he promised he would do come to fruition, people are still just… numb to it.

        Decided that abstaining and allowing Trump to be elected was somehow going to help us get more left-leaning politicians?

          I voted for Harris

          Could this be any clearer?

          I honestly don’t know anymore what to do with this blue MAGA bs. You can say that you ate Harris out while voting for her but you don’t agree with her pro genocide stance and because you said one critical word they’d still tell you that you made Trump happen somehow?

          So, nothing then, because they didn’t do that; they explicitly said, right at the start, that they voted Harris.
