My position has been rock solid through the entire election. Feel free to look through my past comments.
The only ones coping are you guys that are just becoming aware of genocide because Trump is also supporting it.
Keep getting mad and ignoring anyone who doesn’t 100% carry water for Democrats. I’m sure that will continue to be electorially successful.
Produce any media where she even hinted at having a different Gaza policy.
Israel started the genocide early after Oct 7, it’s not escalated. They’re already leveled over 80% of Gaza and destroyed every hospital and piece of infrastructure under Biden.
Tell me, how is that at all different from Trump’s current policy?
Edit: for the down voters, I don’t care. My point is made by you not being able to do anything other than down vote. You know I’m right and that makes you mad. No media exists which will absolve Kamala on Israel.
Not to me.
Biden’s and by extension Kamala’s Israel policy was functionally identical to Trump’s. The atrocities happening under Trump were happening under Biden. The only thing that’s changed is now that Trump is in charge it’s become acceptable for left leaning media to criticize that policy. Under Biden, outlets like MSNBC literally fired everyone with even an incling of pro Palestinian rhetoric. They framed genocide protestors as antisemites.
And it wasn’t just Biden. Practically the entire DNC was 100% behind Israel.
The people protesting had friends and family killed by US muntins that the Biden admin never even hinted at threatening to reduce, even after Israel doing things like murdering aid workers. Even after blowing past every single “red line”.
Go watch Antony Blinken talk about Israel. It’s disgusting, but there really was no difference in rhetoric between him and the current Trump admin.
You don’t understand the protest vote because, like Biden, you didn’t look into or care about the protesters until it became something you could use to bitch about Trump or voters that didn’t do what you wanted.
And yes, I voted for Kamala and told everyone to vote for her. Her campaign shat the bed by chasing right-wing voters and by ignoring the genocide their admin continued to aid. “At least I’m not the other guy” does not work or inspire votes.
Often, some of the dumbest people in the company. Unless the CEO literally founded the company, chances are really high that they are a know nothing nepotism hire. Their only skill was being born to a rich and well connected family.
I really wish people would stop idolizing business leaders as ideal government leaders.
The principles that make a good business are fundamentally different and often in conflict with good government leadership.
A business would say “oh that rural farming community? let’s ignore them. They’ll never make up more than a tiny fraction of our profits”.
A good government, on the other hand says “oh that rural farming community is the breadbasket for the population. Let’s keep them happy so the people in the cities can continue to eat cheap produce”.
And this doesn’t even touch the corruption aspect. A business leader won’t likely have the morals to properly regulate their own business.
I’m rooting for that, but after the end of the trump admin. I really hate that Trump is likely getting 2 more SC justices.

If you’re lucky you’ll be deported back to your own country.
I don’t blame a single person for not wanting to tour the US ATM.
Israel was founded on genocide.
Palestine wasn’t unoccupied when the colonialists moved in and took over. The 1948 Palestine war was literally European colonialists committing genocide to establish a new government.
The fact that they are Jews and Germany has also recently committed genocide against them doesn’t make their actions justified.
And, to be clear, 2019 was under the trump admin. I can’t stress enough how crystal clear and dire someone’s case would have had to have been for Trump’s immigration judges to grant asylum. They were giving that out to basically nobody during his first term. Except for I guess this guy.
Truly Democrats just didn’t understand “the price of eggs” was actually a call to raise prices.
Came to say this. Tinfoil wrapping should work to keep your phone isolated.
I need you to explain why you think it’s a better choice to give Trump the ability to indiscriminately terminate non-essential government employees than to have control of the budget.
AN EXECUTIVE ORDER IS NOT LEGALLY BINDING.
TRUMP SIGNING ONE DOESN’T MAGICALLY GRANT HIM LEGAL POWER TO INDISCRIMINATELY TERMINATE EMPLOYEES.
Your opinion that an EO is somehow more scary than a bill that grants the powers of the EO to the president is what’s entirely insane.
You aren’t concerned with facts as you’ve been corrected not just by me but multiple other people throughout this comment chain. You just want to believe schumer didn’t do something stupid.
FFS I’ve already covered this while talking about the bill. It had riders ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rider_(legislation) ) that gave the admin addition discretion over the budget. Those riders are not temporary.
And I already covered EOs if you bothered to read.
You are now purposely being obtuse because you don’t want to accept that schumer did something moronic.
He helped the republicans pass a bill that Trump wanted them to pass. End of story.
Quiet simple, because there’s a bunch of nutjob republicans that want to cut everything possible yet are willing to settle for temporary stopgap measures. They nearly killed the CR and would have had trump not explicitly pressured them to pass the bill.
Passing a full funding bill would have been harder to get the nutjobs to sign on. Passing a dirty CR with explicit cuts and power grants to the president, however, was enough to win them over.
Again, the schumer “A shutdown will give trump more power” messaging is a lie. Trump had an active role in getting this bill passed.
False, you need to learn what bills are and how they get their titles.
Again, just calling something a CR doesn’t make it one. Budget reconciliation bills are different as they get special privileges in the senate (no filibuster). Anything else can be called whatever you like. There’s no special law or rule that governs what can and can’t be called a CR. That’s why this is being referred to by democrats as “a dirty CR”.
You don’t understand what a CR is if you think it’s permanent. A continuing resolution is stopgap funding when a budget reconciliation fails to be passed.
A CR is just a title applied to a bill. This wasn’t a CR, it was named a CR. Just calling something a “CR” means nothing. If this were actually a CR the dems in the house and most of the senate dems would not have opposed it.
As for Trump’s executive orders, those are just decrees that can be legally challenged. Much like Trump decreeing “The 14th amendment no longer counts” just saying it doesn’t make it so.
Again, Even if we take the veto out of the equation, have you thought about why the Federal Workers union was opposed to this “CR”? Why would the union for the workers that would have been most impacted by a shutdown oppose a simple stopgap CR?
https://www.yahoo.com/news/federal-employees-union-tells-congress-132950031.html
Again, if it were so true and advanced Trump’s goals, why didn’t he veto the CR? Why did he push republicans to vote for it? Why was the Federal Workers Union opposed to it passing?
You edited up above that “it’s temporary”. No, it isn’t. It wasn’t a clean CR and it vested a lot more power into the administration to make budget decisions. A shutdown would have been temporary, but it also would have caused a massive shock to the stock market (which is almost certainly the real reason Schumer and crew voted for it).
Why are you calling the propaganda office to get answers? Do you think Schumer’s staffers are going to tell you anything other than “This was the absolute most perfect and most bestest thing Schumer could have done!”. It’s literally their jobs to justify Schumers actions.
This bill supercharged and codified the DOGE actions. Now, instead of having any sort of leverage to stop the Trump admin and Elon from their actions. Instead of strong arming the republicans to actually compromise on SOMETHING in the budget bill. Schumer and crew have given them everything they asked for and they walked away with smiles on their faces. Literally. Republican senators were shocked and delighted it went through.
All but 1 house democrat voted against this. All but 10 senate democrats voted against this. The vast majority of democrats in congress understood that this was a really dumb bill to let through. Stop listening to Schumer propaganda and just think about this. Schumer, as the senate majority leader, went against the will of his party.
Former staffer that resigned because of the Gaza policy and was not involved in the 2024 election.
From the article, since you didn’t bother to read.
And yeah, I 100% agree with the author. Her position is and remains mine. If you’d bother to read the article, you’d see she even supported the uncommitted movement, which guess who the protest voters were?
You are struggling to square away that I have empathy and understand why people couldn’t stomach Harris. Stop calling people “morons” because they can’t as easily justify genocide as you can.
Also do note that rather than addressing my challenge, you proved my point. Harris had identical Gaza policies to Biden and the only reason to vote for her was the fact that there were some pro Palestinian Democrats. You vote for her not because she’s better in Gaza, but out of the hope that members of her caucus could moderate her position.
