"This is the behavior of a crazy person.
Trump is a massive failure as president. He has allowed a genocidal monster to take over the foreign policy of the United States.
Trump has permitted Netanyahu to drag America to the threshold of war with Iran."

Voting him in is the behaviour of a crazy nation so I'm guessing most americans want this.
Always has been
US system requires deep reform. Both parties controlled by oligarchs that favor israel.
not like the alternative wasn't in his pocket
60 years of foreign policy
you vote for him or don't vote against him.
at least that's what around 70% of Americans did in November.
And either way, you still end up with a psychopath in the pocket of Israel.
This isn’t something that can be fixed at the ballot box. Nothing short of a revolution will change the US relationship with Israel.
Aaaand you are one of those people that thought that this Cheeto was the better option?
Not better. The same.
You seriously with a straight face claim that trump is the exact same like kamela Harris...?
I mean, don't get me wrong, I think she's not a good presidential candidate but then again, that can be said about the vast majority of US politician these days but... trump? Really?
The same?
I really really wish I knew if you were kidding or not but these days, it's hard to see the difference between a badly times joke and sincere idiocy.
Nah, “both parties are the same” is lame voter disenfranchisement talk.
There’s a huge difference.
Not really
Not on this issue there isn't. The genocide continued until the literal last day of Biden's presidency, after which the ceasefire Donald brokered kicked in.
Netanyahu said 'Jump'.
Democrats said: 'How many billion do you want?'
Suing alternative parties off of the ballot, to ensure there only are two options, is voter disenfranchisement.
no such suit would prevail unless the alternative party made grossly incompetent errors in their filings, would they?
I love that bureaucratic barriers are totally acceptable against third parties, but disenfranchisement & an attack on voter rights when used against democrats.
Actually 98%
Fascists usually leave power when they die.
Why didn’t you say anything when Biden was doing the same thing?
99% of Americans will simply never see that 99% of politicians support Netanyahu and his killing of children across the Middle East.
America, the whole of it, supports genocide.
But nah, democrats will call me a tankie and say some shit about who I voted for, and never look in the mirror once.
Americans are only ever going to care after every child is dead. That’s our liberal tradition. Supporting liberation only if it isn’t in the present day.
Fuck liberals, fuck democrats and fuck America.
Does this guy’s guilt trip work on yall?
We're talking about nuclear war right now.
And people ask me why I block everyone from lemm.ee...
They make you feel bad for supporting genocide?
For the X-teenth time:
Eternal war, working for the same oligarchs that sponsor both wings, banks and multinationals and unconditional support for the genociders is BIPARTISAN and always was.
This doesn't change the fact that 47 is the current problem, and is the one currently talking about nuclear war. No matter how bad Biden would have been on this issue, he is currently irrelevant.
The Uniparty, D and R together have only gone in one direction creating the climate and situation.
They did nothing to prevent or defuse it, on the contrary.
Warmonger and zionist Biden and all those before him paved the way and let Satanyahu know he can do anything they want.
Biden is definitely not irrelevant, if he is you could say the same from Trump since he is just another face in a never ending line of genocide enablers.
Considering that Biden's open failures as a president and candidate are the primary reasons that Trump is in power, I don't think it's irrelevant at all.
