American Politics

I just read trump won florida. I wonder if democrats will yet again be shocked at not getting the latino vote they seem to think they have in the bag.

Why would Israelis move out of their own home? And it is their home too, just like america is home to the white people living there. And hamas are an opressive organization that is both responsible for horrible crimes and also in the way of any possible peace process, just like the radical forces in the Israeli government.

There is no one state solution without understanding that Israel has a right to exist, just as Palestine does. If one of these is denied, that means extermination has to keep going, just that people have different hopes for the victor.

So if someone kicked you out of your own home violently and claimed it as theirs, it's their home now? Because it is not their home and it never was if they had to kick out the original inhabitants.

If you're talking about crimes since Oct 7, evidence have exonerated Hamas of most, if not all, of them. I'm also not sure how they're in the way of any peace process when they're either given a shit deal, or the other side doesn't uphold its part or tries to sabotage attempts at peace.

Israel does not have a right to exist, and the fact that they're committing genocide while kicking Palestinians out of their homes proves that.

If trump wins, I'm making 500 USD of a bet.

More bomb threats from Russia. This has to make conservatives feel weird.

Right?

Oh, evidence has exonerated them, so who murdered over 500 Israelis civilians?

THIS is the biggest kicker for me. The vast majority of Israel is Zionist. The vast majority of Palestine is pro-Hamas. In the same way that Alabama doesn't stop being a red state just from having a handful of Democrats living there, Israel is a Zionist state, and Palestine is a pro-Hamas state. If you get rid of every Zionist, you're getting rid of essentially every Jew. You get rid of all of Hamas, you're essentially getting rid of every Palestinian.

It is just childrens' logic to begin with, a lot like "If we throw every criminal into jail forever, the world is safe!". As I said before, it must be nice to live in some kind of dream world without any responsibility.

Well on the bright side, I won't have to hear anything about Palestine for at least 4 years lmfao.

 

[M3J]

The way Dems fucked this election up so badly. I'd be so embarrassed if I were them, because at this point there's no reason for the election to be this close even if Dems somehow win. And it looks like Harris is actually losing the popular vote too.

Embarrassing.

If trump gets his way you won't have to hear about them ever again!

 

[ninjabot]

That's fucked up.

I laughed, but that's fucked up.

 

[M3J]

Here's hoping a miracle happens and Harris ends up winning. Dems don't deserve it, but women and minorities don't deserve the orange cheetos.

 

[kkck]

Yeah, that ended up sounding way darker than I was going for. In all seriousness it's could get quite bad if trump even somewhat stick to what he has said.

Hmmm, now I am wondering what a JD vance presidency is going to look like. Trump is a walrus heading for 80. He could finish his term but we could end up with a lot of vance in between. Trump could have that one last big mac to make his heart explode tomorrow and god knows how his cultist would react.

I will stress again that democrats absolutely deserve to lose. Tomorrow we will see whether democrats are capable of any amount of self reflection and start some serious soul searching as to how the party is run or they intend to remain idiots and start pretending potus (p stands for potato) would have beaten trump. I suppose it's worth noting that as of now it's mathematically possible for a miracle to save democrats though.

All jokes aside, all it means is that things will stay the same: Israel will continue to gain aid from America, and maybe offer more aid. He's not gonna just say nuke Gaza. Maybe.

Meh, nothing about this election was typical. There was no 100% correct path to follow. There is no Trump contingency.

Biden's still got 3 months. He should at least pardon his son on his way out.

I figured kamala was a bad candidate whom people in general outright dislike but i didn't think she was "lose the popular vote" bad.

She likely wouldn't have had she and her team campaigned better. Hell, she and Biden were even warned they'd lose votes if they continued to support this or that or whatnot, but that didn't stop them. She had a very good chance of winning when she replaced Biden, and she could have likely won had she not kept fucking up.

Cared more about the Cheneys and moderates, but how'd that work out for her?

 

[Raven]

I don't think any dem candidate would fair better this time around, Dems went too far in the past few years.

 

[ninjabot]

She lost the popular vote. This isn't about which demographic she should've appealed to, this is about her not being popular regardless of demographic.

Unless you think appealing to the youth would've made up for her not appealing to ANYONE ELSE.
