People keep downvoting like Harris didn't explicitly affirm her commitment to Genocide Joe's policies.
Harris Says 'Not a Thing Comes to Mind' That She'd Do Differently Than Biden
Trump is still worse IDK what you wanna be told
No.
Trump is just meaner and doesn't give speeches pretending to be a good person. On Israel he and Biden are exactly the same. (And Obama, and Bush, and Clinton, etc. etc. etc.)
Incorrect, he is in fact worse than Biden on that issue.
But EVEN IF they were the same on Gaza, which they are not, the fact that you are completely okay with all the other atrocities that Trump is doing is extremely telling. I see zero reason to believe you give a single fuck about Palestinians and are just trying to gaslight yourself into denial about your supporting a pedophile, rapist, and Nazi.
Sure, and I'm glad that makes you feel better, but when both options are don't do the thing its doesn't really matter that one is worse does it? Both are unacceptable, and a real solution needs to be created.
One candidate was going to allow the genocide to continue.
One candidate was going to allow the genocide to continue, while dismantling American democracy.
Your useless ass: "They're literally the same!"
Doesn't matter which one was worse? What's a few more dead Palestinians, eh?
Yes, Harris and Biden were/are absolute shit. Without being able to see into an alternate universe, I'm pretty sure there's more people dead than would have been under what was the already terrible status quo. The current regime is making things worse than it already was, which is a hard bar to clear. It's suffering all around, in Gaza and in the US, and across the poverty stricken areas supported by USAID.
Immediately going ad hominem doesn't speak well to your point-of-view.
Progressives were right. Trump has not been worse than Kamala or Biden.
What happened to the outrageous Democrat claims of Trump nuking Gaza again? Trump has been doing the same thing Biden has.
Let's ignore the destruction of USAID and the triggering of a Hispanic genocide in the US.
Just tell us you're shortsighted and proud of it.
Just continue to do what leftists do best. All talk and all arguments, but when it actually matters, leftists flake out.
I hate MAGA with a passion but I respect that they at least show up. Can’t say the same for leftists.
As ever, liberals will always side with fascists over leftists
