"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.

Pretty much the other way around.

US system requires deep reform. Both parties controlled by oligarchs that favor israel.

I was about to say. Not in his pocket but fuck buddies.

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.

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.

Please tell me how they are distinct from one another. Because the Harris campaign certainly couldn’t explain it.

We're about to lose Medicaid.

Nah, “both parties are the same” is lame voter disenfranchisement talk.

There’s a huge difference.

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.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

no such suit would prevail unless the alternative party made grossly incompetent errors in their filings, would they?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

I love that bureaucratic barriers are totally acceptable against third parties, but disenfranchisement & an attack on voter rights when used against democrats.

Actually 98%
