The US presidential election is a toss-up between a ‘soft-on-Palestine’ Democrat whose boss has armed Israel’s genocide and an unabashedly pro-Israel Republican who doesn’t like war or war budgets.
This has led to the loss of crucial constituencies, including young voters, Arab and Muslim communities, and many progressives. Additionally, many younger and left-leaning Jewish voters “no longer see unequivocal support for Israel as a litmus test.”
While the Democratic party is well aware of this vulnerability, many wonder whether its candidate, Kamala Harris, can win back disappointed voters and bring a new approach to policy toward Gaza – at this late date.
This simply cannot be a serious question. The entire premise is blatantly disingenuous, and absolutely asinine to anyone who has coherent thought processes about American politics.
I do not agree.
The duopoly is bought and paid for by the owner-class, while also supporting and funding another genocide.
You’re entitled to that opinion, I guess. But, to borrow what you said: I do not agree.
And I don’t think that many rational people agree either. Seriously, how is it possible to think this when Trump’s policy will likely entail carpet bombing Gaza and the West Bank with a few squadrons of B-52s? Will you admit that Trump is objectively worse in this regard before or after the land is “freed up” and he breaks ground on his new beachside Trump Tower Gaza?
VP Harris has done nothing to stop the bombing and funding of Israel; Trump will continue the status quo.
They both talk, but it is just more pandering to the working class.
I am not for Trump or Harris, so I see no reason to defend or try to showcase the lesser evil, while both are undeniably evil, IMO.
I can say sentences unrelated to what’s being discussed too ya know.
When the proletariat seize power they will naturally be inclined to abolish their former capitalist shackles such as property ownership.
There, now we’ve both said edgy sounding sentences that have nothing to do with whether or not Trump is going to crueler, callous, and more evil than Harris.
edgy sounding
Interesting.
Trump and Harris are both evil.
They will continue the status quo.
“Both sides are just as bad” is why half the women in the country don’t have access to reproductive health. Harris and the Dems, while not perfect, are at least sympathetic to the plight of Palestinians. Blinken is working to get a cease fire as best he can. But I am sure your moral high ground in being uncompromising with your support of Gaza will comfort you when Trump opens concentration camps in our own country for the undocumented. The “dictator on day one” won’t give a shit at best and it could be the last election your vote is even counted. You think the police are bad at protests now? Wait till he declares martial law and you are staring down the barrel of millitary M4s. We can’t help anyone outside this country if we lose what little democracy we have left.
Your shit is so tiresome.
Clearly, Trump. Next question, please.
It is a lose lose situation. Harris is just less worse.
The duoply supports and funds genocides.
